GUILTY Australia - 3 dead after eating wild mushrooms, Leongatha, Victoria, Aug 2023 *Arrest* #20

[ishtvara]

I'm OK with the sentence. It may be an unpopular opinion but Judge B handed her arse to her in the comments, has made the prospect of an appeal unlikely, and while she may be eligible for parole at age 82 she also may not get it. If she does she will be in her 80's and probably have nothing and no one. I think JB had to consider the conditions of her imprisonment to avoid appeal of the sentence at least.

"Erin Patterson glared at media."

... who, IMO, should have flipped her the bird, en masse.

 

[JBowie]

Erin left a lot of breadcrumbs in years of group chats I have access to still. Well, I did - but since she was convicted they have all gone mysteriously missing which can’t happen without a court order.

Can you name the group chat sites?

If a a court order was issued, then I guess it ought to be a matter of record. Otherwise my guess is that the administrators/moderators may have deleted them for whatever reason.

The members of the media who were there demonstrated respect for the situation and the court. They behaved like responsible adults. Predictably, the person being sentenced, did not.

"However, I encourage Erin to receive my offer of forgiveness for those harms done to me with full confession and repentance."
..
As I am not well up on a lot of the laws in courts, (so forgive me for asking, as so many of you lovely people here are very knowledgeable).

I am wondering since now Erin Patterson has been given her sentence.. If say she now has taken on board what Ian said, and she decides to come clean and admit her guilt and show remorse (which we all know she is guilty of what she has been sentenced for) so she can at least get his forgiveness, would she be taken back to court about her now guilty plea!.

And if that did happen would that change her sentence in any way?.

In my strong opinion, nothing from EP should be outgoing to anyone anywhere - crocheted rats or letters or anything.

Bearing in mind the severity of her crime and the deviousness and evilness, it is not safe for any living being to touch anything that EP has generated in any way whatsoever.

She's a poisoner and a malicious devious secret attacker.

Whether it's her dirty laundry, bedding changes, outgoing mail, or hand crafted items, anything she generates or has ever touched should only be handled as if toxic or poisonous. She's got nothing left to lose now. Why would anyone assume she's not going to continue her campaign of injuring people or perpetrating murder from inside her cell? She might not have access to DC mushrooms anymore but there's many ways to make a person sick by transfer of substances or by hiding dangerous items (remember the pencil sharpener blade inside the banana).

JMO MOO

That ship has sailed.
They could take that into account in November 2056 when she comes up for parole (which may or may not be granted).

I don't know for sure, but I think Ian's comments was more about offering to help save her soul, given his Christian values and also being a Pastor.

In terms of the law, it might help in 31 years and X months time during her first parol hearing, but not before then.
IMO

Horrible, evil scum

She sat at her kitchen table, knowing her relatives would soon be dying, as she watched them eat

Having loving conversations with her.

She'll be staring down the barrel of solitary confinement for 33 years, non-parole, for murdering three in-laws —

and attempting to murder a fourth, by lacing their beef Wellingtons with poisonous death cap mushrooms in 2023.

People cannot endure that indefinitely without breaking

Death would be a mercy at that point.

Ah, lighten up! This is a celebration of justice.

 

[JBowie]

EP's stony silence at both her conviction and now again at her sentence doubly underscores her guilt, IMO.

 

[Penny68]

Yep, and she couldn't even force out a crocodile tear.

But she's not a person - she's inhuman.

She sat there, while those 4 kind souls were praying for HER health, from her made up, phoney, cancer diagnosis---all the time knowing they were about to die a gruesome death.

It really doesn't get much more evil does it.

 

[Ellery84]

Just because Ian has forgiven her doesn’t mean the public ought to. Ian is a better man than I.
No justice, no peace, and now we have justice, I hope that some that she has harmed, traumatised or injured will find peace, including Simon whose health has been majorly impacted by her.

31 years in solitary is a special kind of hell, it’s a hell-on-Earth for a narcissist and sociopath, but hey, you reap what sow. She made her choices, and now she has consequences.

(pay-walled for some)

If Erin Patterson is still religious, she should be thanking God for leniency

By giving the mushroom murderer a chance of one day being released, Justice Christopher Beale may also be closing the door on her chances of appeal.

I’m shocked that she only got 33 years. IMO her sentence should have been life, never to be released.

If Beale gave her life with no parole, she would have appealed it.
