Does that void this trial?

No verdict in mushroom murder trial today
Jurors in the Erin Patterson murder trial have concluded their deliberations for today.

The jury will resume deliberations at 10.30am tomorrow.

The Daily Mail's live coverage will commence from 9am local time on Saturday, July 5.

10:58
What happens after the jury reach a verdict
Media, court watchers, true crime fans and various other people including members of the prosecution are waiting around the small Latrobe Valley courthouse where jurors are deliberating.

Once the jury reaches a verdict on whether Patterson is guilty or not guilty of murdering three lunch guests and attempting to murder Mr Wilkinson, parties including Justice Beale and the defence and prosecution will be notified.

Mr Wilkinson (pictured below) has been present in person for most of the trial but hasn't been sighted since the jury was retired to deliberate.

Simon Patterson, Erin's estranged husband, has not been seen at the court since the early days of the trial, which kicked off on April 28.

The next step after the jury alerts the court it has reached a verdict will be to give parties 15 minutes' notice to return to the courtroom for the result.

As a result, most media and legal representatives are keeping very close to courtroom 4 at Morwell where the verdict will be delivered.

Most interested parties are in the courthouse, but some are waiting at a nearby café and other media are gathering outside.

The jury will hand their verdict to Justice Beale via his tipstaff and then they will be asked to confirm the verdict.

Justice Beale will then thank the jury for their service and the trial will be over.

Daily Mail Australia is on hand to publish the verdict as soon as it is given.

Erin Patterson definitely has mental health issues.  It's quite obvious she is a pathological liar. But whatever happens in her trial and the verdict, I am more concerned for her kids' future mental health.

Take for instance the "death wall" in her house.  These drawings by the kids are not normal. 

From:  News.com

The former home of the woman who prepared the lunch in a suspected fatal mushroom poisoning featured a “death wall” with disturbing children’s drawings.

The former home of the woman who prepared the lunch in a suspected fatal mushroom poisoning that killed three people featured a creepy “death wall” with disturbing children’s drawings of tombstones and an ominous warning that “you don’t [have] long to live”.

A photo obtained exclusively by news.com.au from inside the Korumburra home previously owned by Erin Patterson shows a large section of one wall covered in red, blue and black graffiti.

“You don’t long to live 1 hour exactly,” one section reads.

“Your dead from my sword,” another says.

Underneath two stick figures of a male and female are the words “I am dead” and “no I am really dead”, above what appear to be three tombstones.

One of the tombstones appears to say “grandma R.I.P.” while the third reads “ME R.I.P.

The man, who asked not to use his name, got a phone call from a real estate agent last year asking him to paint the wall so the property could be sold.

“I’ve looked at it and gone, holy sh*t, what the hell’s going on here?” he told news.com.au.

“I went, this is actually really scary for kids to do this inside the kitchen-dining room. I didn’t think it was right, it looked scary. It just didn’t look right to me as a parent.”

The 46-year-old said he was struck by the multiple references to death, and particularly the tombstones.

“That sort of stood right out. It was eerie. I think I put four coats of primer undercoat and two coats of wall paint to cover all that texta.”

The tradie said he snapped the picture and apart from showing a few mates, didn’t think of it again until the fatal mushroom poisonings hit the headlines.

“Now of course this mushroom thing’s come out,” he said.

“They keep to themselves,” he said.

The tradie told news.com.au he was aware homicide detectives wanted to speak to him about the photo, the existence of which had been previously reported.

It's fortunate the tradie took photos of the drawings before he cleaned and painted the wall.

Why does this continue to occur?

If you are dismissed from a jury for wrongdoing you should not be paid for your service or be entitled to jury leave entitlement from your employer.

At the minimum.

Preferably I would also like to see a large fine associated with this behaviour.

Mushrooms could grow in the prison grounds.

She could do it again.
