The prosecution argues that Patterson deliberately fabricated a cancer diagnosis, planning her deception to coincide with a poisoning scheme against her lunch guests. Evidence suggests that she strategically ensured her children were absent during the lunch to avoid harm. Messages exchanged with her mother-in-law reveal a premeditated intention behind the lies. Prosecutor Nanette Rogers highlights Patterson's deceit, emphasizing the absence of medical records to support her cancer claims, further indicating the depth of a fabricated narrative that was intended to conclude with her victims' silence.
Rogers says it was entirely Patterson's plan that her two children would not be present at the lunch. She made sure the children were away at McDonald's at the cinema by the time the lunch guests were arriving.
Rogers says Patterson created an elaborate lie regarding cancer. She says the lie was planted before the lunch. She points to messages between Patterson and her mother-in-law Gail.
