Or maybe the dehydrator was discarded sometime on the Saturday or on the Sunday before EP presented to Leongatha hospital. I believe the tip closed at 4pm. I think the dehydrator was discarded before the convo with SP….if that alleged conversation even happened. My understanding is that EP and...

“Veteran crime writer John Silvester, who has authored a number of best-selling books on crime in Melbourne, said he found one key element of the tragedy “slightly curious”. “We’ve got the dehydrator from the house that was apparently found in the tip,” he told 3AW radio. “It’s been reported...

The two tips (rubbish dumps) close by were both open on Saturday and Sunday (according to Google). I wonder if the children were asking their mother “why did We/you have to take the dehydrator to the tip?” It is only Erin’s word (in her statement) that she dumped it after Simon asked her if she...

If EP had deliberately poisoned the Saturday lunch I wonder if any of her behaviour in the hours/day that followed was perceived as unusual by her children. Surely her mind would have been buzzing with the potential consequences of her actions. Would she have been nervous/curious during her...

We have to assume EP did not go to hospital until after the children had eaten the left overs on the Sunday evening, otherwise her feeding them to her children is unfathomable.

I can imagine a scenario where EP‘s children are wanting to live with their father and she wants to punish SP by showing him how it feels to have your family taken away. It’s pretty extreme but motivations for murder are rarely based on rational thinking. Just pure speculation.

The four guests were transferred from local hospitals to the Austin. EP was transferred to Monash from a local hospital. Not sure why they didn’t all end up being treated in the same hospital.

Not sure if this Australian 2014 case has been mentioned earlier. Similarly, a home cooked meal poisoned people with death caps. In this case the purchaser of the mushrooms insisted they were bought as button mushrooms from Woolworths and tried to sue Woolworths. Woolworths recalled the batch of...

If I had unwittingly bought mushrooms from a store that were poisonous and accidentally poisoned my loved ones I’d be absolutely racking my brain to remember the specific store and any detail that might save anyone else from getting sick...and I’d be begging health authorities for a recall...

Thank you

Well spotted. I also noted this statement, again from a “friend”: The friend told The Daily Mail on Wednesday that the Patterson and Wilkinson families, like Simon, harboured doubts about her version of events. To me this is suggestive of a lack of trust toward EP, maybe things were not as...

I was leaning toward “foraged and accidentally used death caps” initially but….it seems that ship has sailed. EP could have saved herself all the speculation and media harassment if she released a statement admitting her mistake, if that were the case. Instead she has dumped the food dehydrator...

“The friend told the publicationthat Mr Patterson’s family was worried about Ms Patterson’s “mental state” so they accepted the lunch invitation to “make sure she was in the right mental health to resume a relationship with Simon”. “This wasn’t just a lunch, it was an intervention with the...

Is there any consensus about when EP and SP separated? In SP’s Facebook post during his 2022 stay in hospital with his “gut illness” SP refers to his wife and kids coming to visit him. Yet it has been stated (by EP?) that she “ reluctantly agreed” to care for him during his recovery. Seems a bit...

very interesting, thank you for paraphrasing.

People often bruise at an IV insertion site. I think the position of a catheter is in line with Erin’s mid finger injury where the plastic end often rubs. The redness/sore in the cuticle looks unrelated.

In the photo of Erin from this article I can see a bruise on her hand. To me, this bruise is a tell tale sign that she has had an IV line administered which adds credence to her statement that she was admitted to hospital and given fluids. The redness on her finger, in line with the bruise, may...

Beef Wellington seems a very appropriate meal for a formal winter’s lunch in this context and climate. It is both traditional and a bit fancy and could well have been a favourite of one or more of the guests, or an intended guest that didn’t attend. It has a real “Agatha Christie” vibe and makes...

I think the media are getting desperate for a headline Personally I have had a very similar looking finger injury from a burn when removing something from the oven….not beef Wellington though
