# The sole Australian survivor of a deadly lunch of Beef Wellington laced with death cap mushrooms, says he felt only half alive following the death of his wife. Baptist pastor Ian Wilkinson read the first victim impact statement in the Victoria state Supreme Court at the sentencing hearing of Erin Patterson. A jury convicted Patterson of murdering Wilkinson’s wife and two family members. She was also convicted of attempting to murder Wilkinson, who survived after a liver transplant. Patterson faces a potential life sentence for each of the murders.
