Three of her relatives died after eating a meal she cooked - and one is fighting for his life.
A woman who cooked up a beef wellington lunch with toxic mushrooms that killed three of her relatives and left one fighting for his life is an experienced fungi forager, according to a family friend.
The 48-year-old was ‘very good at foraging’ and identifying the different types of mushrooms, a friend of the Patterson family said.‘It’s very common for people to go mushroom picking around that area.’ Mr Wilkinson, meanwhile, remains in a critical condition at Austin Hospital in Melbourne awaiting a liver transplant.
Homicide detectives are investigating the three ‘unexplained’ deaths, thought to have been caused by death cap mushrooms, which are known for being among the world’s most poisonous.
