Nature's silent assassin: The deadly mushroom at the heart of Australia’s most shocking murder trial

An Australian woman, Erin Patterson, faces murder charges after a lunch she prepared allegedly resulted in three deaths and one near-fatal illness. The victims, her in-laws and an aunt and uncle, consumed a beef Wellington containing death cap mushrooms. Prosecutors suspect foul play, citing Patterson's alleged fake cancer claim, selective eating during the meal, and suspicious cleanup afterward.
