Deadly mushroom cook Erin Patterson will face members of her husband’s family for the first time after a jury found she murdered three people with a poisoned beef Wellington.

Patterson was found guilty of  three counts of murder and one count of attempted murder last month relating to a fatal lunch she hosted in the Victorian country town of Leongatha more than two years ago.

Australian correspondent Oliver Peterson says over a dozen members of her victims’ families arrived for the hearing - but Patterson has yet to make a statement.
