Mushroom killer arrested

Grounds for appeal have been made public.
The Court of Appeal has accepted the documents, but is yet to grant Patterson leave to appeal.


The Age article lists the points of appeal. It is fairly brief, but perhaps too much to quote in full here.
The only straw the defence has to grasp at is the fact that the prosecution and the jury stayed at the same hotel in Morwell for one night. It seems that the jury remained isolated, but it was a really stupid oversight.
