No poisons were ever found. <\/p>\n<p>The three alleged poisonings occurred during family camping trips. Simon shared his poisoning suspicions with his doctor, who encouraged him to create a spreadsheet listing what he had eaten around the time he became sick.<\/p>\n<p>In one instance, Simon Patterson testified, he felt ill after eating a mild chicken korma Erin Patterson made on a camping trip in 2022.  <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At first I felt hot, especially in my head, and that led to feeling nauseous and then that led to me quite suddenly needing to vomit,&#8221; he said. <\/p>\n<p>Simon Patterson eventually fell into a coma before receiving life-saving surgery to remove a section of his bowel, French news agency AFP reported.<\/p>\n<p>Justice Christopher Beale ruled for lawyers representing media who sought to overturn the gag order, ordering that the evidence jurors hadn&#8217;t seen be made public. <\/p>\n<p>Erin Patterson&#8217;s lawyers wanted all the evidence that wasn&#8217;t deemed admissible at her trial to be kept secret until an appeals court decided whether to overturn her convictions. <\/p>\n<p>Among their arguments was that media interest in the case was unprecedented. Defense lawyer Colin Mandy asserted that reporting of the suppressed evidence as well as references to it in books, podcasts and a planned television mini-series would &#8220;leave an indelible impression on the minds of potential jurors in the event that there is a retrial.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>A hearing will begin on Aug. 25 to determine what sentence she will get. She faces a potential life sentence for each of the murders and 25 years for attempted murder. <\/p>\n<p>Prosecutor Jane Warren told Beale on Friday &#8220;a lot&#8221; of victim impact statements would be presented at that two-day sentencing hearing. <\/p>\n<p>Once Erin Patterson is sentenced, she&#8217;ll have 28 days to lodge an appeal against the sentence, the convictions, or both.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation \">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">More from CBS
