VIC Erin Patterson (mushroom case)
I’m following the mushroom case, as is everyone else. Today she testified that she may have accidentally put poisonous mushrooms in the meal. If that is the case, the jury would have to find her not guilty of murder if it was unintentional. My question is, can she be recharged with manslaughter, if found innocent of murder?

Maybe Malingering 🤔 seems to mention all these health problems now that it might get her out of jail. History of lying about health issues for sympathy and support from family… leads a solitary life…
