Leongatha woman Erin Patterson, who is accused of poisoning family members with mushrooms, has listed a Mount Waverley townhouse for sale.<\/p>\n
The three-bedroom residence has a price guide of $960,000 to $1.05 million and is scheduled for auction this Saturday. It is not the property where the mushroom lunch was served.<\/p>\n

She has faced court also charged with attempting to murder her estranged husband Simon four times.<\/p>\n Patterson\u2019s former in-laws, Don Patterson, 70, and Gail Patterson, 70, as well as Gail\u2019s sister, Heather Wilkinson, 66, all died in hospital days after the lunch, where beef Wellington was served. Heather\u2019s husband, 68-year-old Baptist pastor Ian Wilkinson, was released from the Austin Hospital after seven weeks of treatment \u2013 most of which he spent in a coma.<\/p>\n Police allege that the poisoning was caused by death cap mushrooms. The death cap is responsible for 90 per cent of mushroom-poisoning deaths. One bite can be enough to kill someone, causing severe gastroenteritis and eventually organ failure.<\/p>\n The Morning Edition newsletter is our guide to the day\u2019s most important and interesting stories, analysis and insights. <\/i><\/b>Sign up here<\/i><\/b>.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
