During the ongoing court proceedings regarding Erin Patterson, defence lawyer Colin Mandy contended that the prosecution is selectively presenting evidence to frame his client negatively. He highlighted inconsistencies, particularly regarding Patterson's alleged religious beliefs and the presentation of evidence from a surviving lunch guest. As the trial nears its conclusion, Justice B... said jury instructions would begin soon, emphasizing their importance for fair deliberation on the case. Mandy reiterated that the focus should not be on moral judgments but substantial evidence.
Mandy argued the prosecution selectively used evidence, stressing the importance of context regarding Patterson's statements on her in-laws and the nature of her social media communications.
Justice Beale informed the jury that the judge's charge, outlining their deliberation process, would commence in two days to ensure a thorough understanding of the case.
