The children will have a forever home with their father in a house which "I think" was bought from EP's first inheritance - not 100% sure - hard to keep up with all the buying and selling and title changes and property settlements - happy to be corrected.

Well, that was a good investment from Erin. An investment in her children's futures with their dad.

I definitely saw it in the news media somewhere.

See post #1464 for the media reference.

I don't recall hearing it, and I'm now wondering if she was just making stuff up when she said it.

She does seem to have a problem with telling the truth

Homes on Phillip island are very pricey

Not sure 1.1m from the Glen Waverley house sale would have covered it.

That is not the actual post number though. These numbers change for a post if posts before it are deleted. The post number seems to actually be in the URL. For example, your post that I am replying I think is: 19498500

Seems it's gone? Bizarre.

It was an article from news.com.au quoting her in an interview with police.

It was my post and I included a link from news.com.au

No idea why the post is gone, I've received no notification from Admin

She might have needed to generate a but more $$ to upgrade to Phillip Island. IMO

It's the one thing I'm still baffled by. Meticulous planning, horrendous vengeful murder.
The only thing I can put it down to, is that she thought she was so much smarter than everyone else. Terrifying, imo.

Her planning seems rooted more in fantasy than contingency. A meticulous person would anticipate the aftermath and every variable from hospital visits, autopsies, toxicology reports and forensics. I would guess that if your worldview is steeped in grievance and emotional reasoning though, it would be easy to overestimate control and underestimate the systems designed to catch you.

Actually properties at Cowes are still quite reasonable in price, especially considering they are so close to the sea.

Yep. That’s what I meant when I previously said Erin’s no chess player. I see her actions more like a backgammon running game where a player’s goal is to move all her pips around the board without great thought to offensive or defensive strategy.

Where a game player relies on the roll of the dice, Erin also left a lot to luck. IOW with confidence in her own intelligence combined with derision of the authorities she then relied on the kindness and grace of her victims to lure them into her trap, convinced she would outsmart everyone. Disgusting.

I wonder what the outcome would have been if Ian had died. Did his testimony give weight to the evidence?

'I'll seize that now': Court releases footage of police confiscating Erin Patterson's phone

Erin Patterson is seen handing over a "dummy" phone during a police search of her home, in new vision released by the Supreme Court.

www.abc.net.au

"Is there a pin code on your phone? Do you know what it is?"

Patterson replies, however the phone unlocks without a pin code, and is taken by the detective.

"Makes your job easy," Patterson quips.

The device, which came to be nicknamed Phone B, had already been factory reset by Patterson, who managed to remotely wipe the device a final time after it was in a police safe.

During Patterson's trial, prosecutors said nothing meaningful was found on the Samsung device.

The main phone Patterson had been using in the lead-up to the lunch, nicknamed Phone A, was never located.

However, officers were able to retrieve cell tower data, which placed Phone A in the vicinity of sites where death cap mushrooms were growing.

Patterson denied hiding Phone A, and insisted it had been missed by officers who searched her home. [bbm]

Yeah, sure it was missed by police because she either hid it or diposed of it.

I think she doesn’t really care about the mobile being seized - she knows THAT mobile doesn’t contain anything incriminating!


Ho hum……

Also the complete lack of urgency in her body language from that abc article video is really something. She looks bored of the whole thing
