They Said WHAT About Erin Patterson?! Kyle & Jackie O Facing Contempt Risk Over Mushroom Killer

Australia’s most notorious shock jocks, Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O Henderson, are under scrutiny after comments made during Erin Patterson’s mushroom murder trial were under review by prosecutors.

Four months on, Victoria’s Office of Public Prosecutions is still weighing potential contempt-of-court charges against the KIIS FM hosts — after Kyle was heard saying “lock that b**h up.”*

In this episode, Lisa from The Mushroom Murder Trial Podcast breaks down what’s happening behind the scenes:

  • Why prosecutors haven’t ruled out charges yet
  • What counts as contempt of court in Australia
  • How this compares to the $1.1 million media fines from the George Pell case
  • The latest on Erin Patterson’s appeal and her life sentence for the mushroom murders of Don and Gail Patterson and Heather Wilkinson

Based on reporting by The Guardian Australia’s justice correspondent Nino Bucci.
