Erin Patterson's appeal rejected, life without parole upheld

In Melbourne, the Victorian Court of Appeal dismissed Erin Patterson’s appeal, upheld a life-without-parole sentence and gave her 28 days to seek special leave to the High Court, where success is unlikely. Earlier on 29 October, the court was expected to announce its ruling on her triple-murder convictions, and The Guardian reported the decision could confirm the sentence, order a retrial or acquit her. CBC noted the court had upheld a 33-year non-parole term for the mushroom-poisoning murders, and Nine.

com. au reported Patterson became the second Australian woman sentenced to life without parole.
