Anyone else following along with the Erin Patterson trial still? She's on the stand today and it's fascinating.

Me! I think it's quite rare for the accused to take the stand in a murder trial, cross-examination by the prosecution is going to be a hoot.

Especially when she's already proven she's a liar! Everything she says I'm like "but did you?"

[-] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago

All the excuses she put up so far sounds so contradictory and also random. She’s definitely lying.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago

During their opening address the defender basically said "she's a liar, but not a murderer!"

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

I’d say they so hand in hand in this case.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

she's stupid , scared and defensive

she should have been coached

[-] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

She sounds coached while talking about everything she's been through and how she regrets certain actions.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 3 weeks ago

Not hardcore, just listening to it whenever it pops up.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah. I'm waiting for the prosecution to get stuck in. πŸΏπŸ‘€

Ooh, I just bought some fun popcorn at the food and wine show, thanks for the reminder!

There's a book called Widow of Walcha that's quite interesting. It's about a NSW woman who attempted several poisonings on multiple lovers and eventually succeeded.
