Erin Patterson claims she ate only half of a beef Wellington laced with death cap mushrooms at her deadly lunch. Patterson made the claim to hospital staff and a child protection officer in the days following the lunch that claimed the lives of her in-laws Don and Gail Patterson, and Gail's sister, Heather Wilkinson. The jury has already heard Gail Patterson ate just half of her pastie-sized beef Wellington, with her husband finishing off the rest.

The Erin Patterson trial has suffered the surprise loss of a juror mid-trial after the judge was given new information about him. Justice Christopher Beale discharged a male juror on Thursday after the judge was alerted that the man had been discussing the trial outside of court. Bringing the jury in late, Justice Beale explained why the juror would no longer be seated alongside them for the duration of the trial.
