Yesterday in the Supreme Court of Victoria, we heard confronting details about Erin Patterson’s grim prison reality. Locked in isolation for 23 hours a day at Dame Phyllis Frost Centre, her only potential conversation comes through a mesh fence with convicted terrorist and killer, Momena Shoma.
During the plea hearing, Patterson faced the families of her victims, including survivor Pastor Ian Wilkinson. Prosecutor Jane Warren urged the court to impose life without parole, describing the crimes as “so horrific, so cruel and so callous” that mercy should not apply.
The hearing also revealed Patterson’s struggles behind bars — from her isolation conditions to her limited comforts — while her victims’ families continue to live with the devastating consequences of her crimes.
The sentencing has now been adjourned for two weeks. Stay tuned as we follow every detail of this landmark case.
