Patterson's Facebook messages about in-laws and estranged husband Simon are read to jury
Patterson showed little emotion and stared blankly at the screen containing the messages with her online friends.
Crown prosecutor Jane Warren read the content of the texts to the court.
1. I said to him about 50 times yesterday, but I didn't want them to adjudicate (emoji) nobody bloody listens to me, at least I know they're a lost cause.
2. I wonder if they've got any capacity for self-reflection at all. I mean clearly the fact that Simon refuses to talk about personal issues in part stems from the behaviour of his parents and how they operate. According to them, they've never asked him what's going on with us, why I keep kicking him out, why his son hates him, etc. It's too awkward or uncomfortable or something. So that's his learned behaviour. Just don't talk about this s***.
3. Know nothing, but also more happened. Don rang me last night to say that he thought there was a solution to all this. If Simon and I get together and try to talk and pray together. (Emoji, emoji) And then he also said, Simon had indicated there was a solution to the financial issues if I withdraw this child support claim?!
4. My head nearly exploded and I was like, what, what? I'm sorry, what?? And Don goes, oh sorry, just ignore what I've said. I don't want to get involved. So anyway, I sent a group message to them all last night saying how Simon is behaving is unconscionable and asking me to withdraw the child support plan is wrong and disadvantages me and his children, and how dare you, etc. Don messaged to say that he and Gail don't want to get involved in the financial things. But just hope we will pray for the kids (Emoji) So I replied this morning saying, I understand it's uncomfortable and awkward for them, but I want to copy them into this stuff because Simon needs to be accountable for the decisions he is making that are hurting his children, and I would hope they care about their grandchildren enough to care about what Simon is doing. Don said they tried to talk to him, but he refused to talk about it, so they're staying out of it, but want us to pray together. I'm sick of this s***. I want nothing to do with them. I thought his parents would want him to do the right thing, but it seems their concern about not wanting to feel uncomfortable, and not wanting to get involved in their son's personal matters, are overriding that. So f*** them.
5. His parents sent me a message yesterday afternoon and Simon sent me one last night, but I've read neither and I don't think I will. I don't want to hear it. Simon's will just be horrible and be gaslighting and abusive and it will ruin my day and his parents will be more weasel words about not getting involved. So I think I'm going to just move on. I don't need anything from these people. Simon's parents say they don't want to take sides, but by the very actions they have. Daughter came to them, laying all the same complaints about her husband that I did about Simon. They would never say to her, ‘Oh well, we can't believe you until we hear (his) side’ right now it's your word against his’. No, they would just believe that if their daughter's husband just walked away and refused to support her kids, they would have things to say to him. But by refusing to hold Simon to account, they've made it clear his word means more than mine. So that speaks volumes, even if they claim they haven't taken sides. They've had Simon fatigue every night for three months and never once picked up the phone to me since the separation and asked if I'm okay and need help. So that tells me their choices. Simon wants to walk away from his responsibilities too, well that's his choice. Maybe it's easier if he's not involved in even paying their school fees. Means I can choose their school all by myself and don't have to refer to him. If he wants them to go to a private Christian school, then he can help pay for it. If he doesn't want me to help, sorry, if he doesn't want to help pay for it, then I don't have to send them there, do I? So maybe it just means I have even more freedom about my choices, blessing in disguise.
7. A message sent to erinerinerin from another participant: Will you still go to that church?
8. I haven't been to their church in months, kids go with Simon every second Sunday and came to one with me at Leongatha the other Sunday.
9. His mum was horrified I had claimed child support. Why isn't she horrified her son is such a deadbeat that I had no choice but to claim? That's the content of that.
Group chat messages revealed
A message sent under the username erinerinerin, which is alleged to be from Patterson, to some of her Facebook friends was read aloud to the court:
'Simon's dad contacted me this morning to say that he and Gail had tried to talk to Simon about the matters I raised and to get "his side" but he refused to talk about it other than to signal he disagreed with what I said beyond that he wont talk about it.
'So Don said they can’t adjudicate if they don't know both sides and Simon won't give his side.
'So he said all he can ask is that Simon and I get together to pray for the children. This family I swear to f***ing God.'
Message ended with multiple emojis with eyes looking upward.
The jury heard the message was timestamped 6/12/2022.
