Don and Gail Patterson and Heather Wilkinson died in hospital. Pastor Ian Wilkinson,Heather’s husband,suffered liver damage and was in the Austin Hospital earlier this month in a critical but stable condition. A family spokespersonconfirmed last week that his condition was improving.
The 48-year-old woman has strenuously denied any wrongdoing.
Dressed casually in a grey jumper and khaki pants,Patterson stayed silent as she was escorted out of her lawyers’ office in the Melbourne legal district on Tuesday afternoon.
Flanked by her legal representatives,she did not respond when asked by journalists about the purpose of the meeting with her lawyers,or whether she had anything to say about the case.
Patterson remained expressionless as she was whisked into a waiting car.
She has previously saidin a written statement that the beef Wellington she cooked contained mushrooms purchased from a grocer in Mount Waverley at least three months before the lunch.
