Following the lifting of a gag order, a new Mail podcast has released which reveals previously unheard allegations made by the ex-husband of mushroom murderer Erin Patterson.
Crime reporters Caroline Cheetham and Wayne Flower examine Simon's secret testimony in full, where he accuses Patterson of repeated attempts to poison him before the deadly lunch that killed three of his family members.
Charges related to Simon's poisoning were brought against Patterson but placed under reporting restrictions to avoid prejudicing her murder trial.
After Patterson's guilty verdict, Flower, Cheetham and a team of other court reporters successfully lobbied for the allegations' release.
Simon's story comes from pre-trial testimony and remains unproven.
