Australian woman Erin Patterson has been charged with three counts of murder and five counts of attempted murder. Â
Her former in-laws Gail and Don Patterson as well as Gail's sister Heather died from suspected toxic mushroom poisoning in July, after eating lunch Erin Patterson allegedly made. Â
Gail's husband Ian was hospitalised. Â
Three other charges relate to incidents in 2021 and 2022, when police allege that a 48-year-old man became ill after meals. Â
Australian correspondent Murray Olds told Mike Hosking that Police searched her property with specially trained forensic sniffer dogs. Â
He says those dogs are trained to look for things like USBs and SIM cards.Â
