澳大利亚女子因蘑菇谋杀案被定罪；丈夫曾怀疑其早前投毒行为曝光
摘要
埃琳·帕特森因用有毒蘑菇谋杀三名亲属被定罪，现有新消息披露其疏远的丈夫曾怀疑她早前曾试图投毒。
澳大利亚法院披露，埃琳·帕特森的疏远丈夫西蒙·帕特森在她用死亡帽蘑菇致死其三名亲属一年多前，就怀疑她曾试图投毒。
50岁的埃琳·帕特森上个月因谋杀前岳父岳母唐和盖尔·帕特森及盖尔的妹妹希瑟·威尔金森被定罪。受害者于2023年7月在埃琳位于维多利亚州利昂加萨的家中，食用掺有有毒蘑菇的牛肉威灵顿餐后死亡。希瑟的丈夫伊恩·威尔金森也曾中毒但幸存。
庭审前听证会上，西蒙·帕特森作证称，他曾因担心埃琳可能投毒而拒绝了她的午餐邀请。他回忆称，在2021年11月至2022年9月间的家庭露营期间，食用她准备的餐食（包括意大利宽面肉酱、鸡肉咖喱和蔬菜咖喱卷）后曾严重不适。尽管未检测出毒物，西蒙向医生表达了担忧，医生建议他记录症状及饮食情况。
埃琳最初面临多项企图谋杀西蒙的指控，但这些指控在审判开始前被撤销。法院最近解除对这段庭前证据的禁令，使西蒙的证词公开。埃琳的辩护团队曾试图在她对定罪提出上诉期间保密此信息。
埃琳·帕特森定于2025年8月25日宣判，面临每项谋杀罪名的终身监禁及最高25年的企图谋杀刑期。她的律师表示计划对定罪提出上诉。
