Erin Patterson to learn fate in appeal against mushroom murders convictions

Melanie Lynskey will star as Erin Patterson in the Paramount+ limited series Mushroom Murders: There’s More to Unearth, debuting in 2027. The show dramatises the period between the 2023 toxic mushroom lunch and Patterson's arrest. Meanwhile, the Victorian court of appeal will deliver a judgment this Friday regarding Patterson's triple murder conviction and sentence. This follows arguments from her lawyers claiming she was denied a fair trial and whether she faces additional prison time.
