Footage of Erin Patterson dumping a food dehydrator at a tip and handing a mobile phone to police has been released by the Victorian supreme court, almost a month after she was found guilty of murdering and attempting to murder her estranged husband’s family.

Both sets of footage were tendered as exhibits during Patterson’s trial, but only were released to the media on Monday.
