What when her friends and husband can say it’s rubbish as she had books on the subject and has been foraging for years?
Then this doesn't make much sense either unless she'd decided to do a sort of murder-suicide mission (aka give up on her own life and any future).
She would have had to forage for the deadly mushrooms in advance (which would have been several months ago according to some people's opinion on when the mushrooms would have been growing in her area), dehydrate them, powder them maybe, store them safely, then bring them out for use when needed. That's a very premeditated event.
She would also know more or less what to expect in terms of symptoms and loss of life and the time line.
So how on earth would she expect to get away with it if we assume these factors? Unless she no longer cared whether to get away with or not and is quite accepting that she'll be spending the rest of her life in prison, having fully abandoned any concept of the future?
OR being terribly and extremely mentally unwell in a way that personally I have seen people - sufficient to say a psychotic disorder such as schizophrenia that when florid and manic could 'activate' and when not could be functioning normally. In which case she would be already known for this severe illness.
