Australian Woman Appeals Conviction in Fatal Mushroom Luncheon Case

A woman named Erin Patterson was found guilty of killing three family members and trying to kill another by poisoning their food with toxic mushrooms.

She was sentenced to a very long time in prison.

Now, she is asking a higher court to review her case and overturn the guilty verdict.

She believes the jury was not treated fairly because they stayed in the same hotel as the police during the trial.

She also thinks some of the evidence used against her shouldn't have been allowed and that she was treated unfairly during questioning.

The prosecutors, however, think her prison sentence was not long enough and have also appealed, asking for a tougher sentence.
