In this special extra episode Caroline and Wayne have the words from the victims of Erin Patterson as they addressed a court in Melbourne today. Erin Patterson sat in the dock listening intently as members of the families told her she had taken the lives of people who only did good in the world, and they asked over and over again how she could have gone through with her “cold and calculated” plan to murder. They said the “ultimate injustice” was never having an explanation for why she did what she did. The statements delivered in court today will now be considered by the judge who will hand down her sentence in two weeks.
The Trial series uses actors and some voices generated by AI. Their words are taken as verbatim from the official court transcript.
