Erin Patterson's (The Mushroom Cook) Appeal
Erin Patterson (the Mushroom Cook) is back in court, fighting to overturn her convictions for murdering three people and attempting to murder a fourth with a meal containing deadly death cap mushrooms. Her lawyers are arguing that serious flaws in the original trial, including how the jury was accommodated, the admission of certain evidence and the way Patterson was cross-examined, compromised the verdict. Prosecutors strongly reject those claims, arguing the evidence against her was overwhelming. Meanwhile, the prosecution is also appealing Patterson’s sentence, seeking life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. Story starts at: 8:24.

BONUS: The Tinder Swindler
The Tinder Swindler is Shimon Hayut, an Israeli conman who posed as a wealthy diamond heir named Simon Leviev on dating apps like Tinder. He would match with women, quickly charm them with a lavish lifestyle—private jets, luxury hotels, expensive gifts—then fabricate emergencies (like threats from “enemies”) to convince them to send him large sums of money. He often used funds from new victims to maintain the illusion for others, essentially running a Ponzi-style scam. Note: A quick message for you beautiful listeners: You already know we're not good at maths, but we can also not be so good at organising ourselves all the time - so we're going to take a little break from releasing new episodes but will be back in your ears with an update soon.
