    Lawyers for mushroom murderer Erin Patterson - plan to appeal her guilty verdicts

    Lawyers for mushroom murderer Erin Patterson - plan to appeal her guilty verdicts


    The 50-year-old has a life sentence with 33 years non-parole period - for killing three relatives with a Beef Wellington lunch laced with poisonous deathcap mushrooms in 2023.

    Patterson's barrister made the appeal announcement today.

    Sky News correspondent Jack Nyhof says appeal grounds are yet to be outlined, and documents aren't yet formally lodged.

    They have until midnight Monday.
