    A coroner will further investigate the murders of the three Dickason children, killed by their mother


    Lauren Dickason has begun three concurrent 18-year sentences for murdering her daughters in Timaru three years ago.

    She's starting her sentence in a mental health facility and is eligible for parole in 2027.

    Dickason has 20 working days to appeal her convictions or sentence.

    If she doesn't, the coronial process can begin in July.

    The coroner will then decide whether a full-inquest should be held.
