While Ms Erin Patterson awaits trial for the incident that claimed three lives and left one critically ill, authorities assure that she is not suspected of deliberately poisoning her relatives. Since her detention at the Dame Phyllis Frost centre in November, Patterson has been confined to a self-contained unit for her safety, potentially granting her access to amenities such as a personal kitchen and recreational activities. Meanwhile, a significant development looms as the police brief, meticulously prepared over the past 20 weeks, nears completion and is set to be served to Erin Patterson’s lawyers on Monday. You can find Lisa on Twitter@LisaPodcastsInstagram:@Erin_PodcastPlus you can learn more about this case and send a message through the website, www.ErinPattersonpodcast.com.auAlso please rate and review  The Erin Patterson Podcast.
