Erin Patterson: The Mushroom Murderer
Former Australian police detective Duncan McNab shares his insights on Erin Patterson, who poisoned her family members with death-cap mushrooms in a Beef Wellington.
"I've met some killers in my time, and some of them just view other people as an inconvenience, a trouble to be removed."
McNab notes that Patterson never expected anyone to survive the deadly lunch, particularly Ian Wilkinson. He believes Patterson had planned the case in detail but did not anticipate being caught.
The case of Erin Patterson is one of the most notorious in recent history, drawing significant public interest.
