Jury retires in mushroom murder trial in Australia

Australian woman, Erin Patterson, 50, is on trial for allegedly serving toxic death cap mushrooms in a fatal lunch to her relatives, resulting in the deaths of three people in July 2023. The prosecution claims Patterson knowingly poisoned her guests and then lied to cover her tracks, while the defence argues she accidentally included the poisonous mushrooms and panicked. The jury has retired to deliberate on the four charges - three of murder and one of attempted murder - with final arguments focusing on Patterson's alleged lies and motives.
