Were they the mushrooms that woman in Australia used to murder her ex-in-laws?

Allegedly.

That was the Death Caps. They're a bit more survivable than Destroying Angel, but I wouldn't want to eat either of them.

2 out of 4 died. That also sounds like 50% to me. You can have that science for free. A little treat.

Not allegedly. She was just convicted on 3 murder counts

Good. I read some article that made it sound like the evidence wasn't good or something.
