BONUS | Mushroom Murderer Erin Patterson is a ’narcissistic psychopath’

The courtroom drama that gripped Australia has finally reached its conclusion. Erin Patterson, the woman at the centre of the nation’s most infamous murder case in recent history, has been sentenced to life for three counts of murder.
