INFAMOUS: The Mushroom Cap Murders

In 2023, 48-year-old Erin Patterson invited a group of her husband’s family members over, and things took a turn for the worst, and by the worst, we mean murder. Patterson has been convicted of murdering three people and one attempted murder after poisoning them with mushrooms served over a nice dinner. But some questions still remain: How did she go from loving mother to mass murderer, and WHY?
