Erin Patterson, the woman who has become known as 'Australia's mushroom murderer,' has been sentenced to life for the murders of Don and Gail Patterson and Heather Wilkinson, and the attempted murder of Ian Wilkinson.
Patterson had spent the last 15 months in solitary confinement, and her notoriety has led Justice Christopher Beale, speaking at her sentencing hearing, to suggest Patterson will stay in solitude for some years to come.
