<v Speaker 2>I'm Lucy Tassel, I'm Annabel Whitehouse.

0:00:09.360 --> 0:00:12.400
<v Speaker 1>It's Thursday, the nineteenth of June. Here's what's making headlines

0:00:12.440 --> 0:00:12.959

0:00:25.920 --> 0:00:30.000
<v Speaker 2>poisoning four members of her strange husband's family, killing three.

0:00:30.480 --> 0:00:34.440
<v Speaker 2>In his final remarks, Patterson's defense lawyer, Colin Mandy, appealed

0:00:34.440 --> 0:00:37.600
<v Speaker 2>to the jury to absolve Patterson if they believe the

0:00:37.600 --> 0:00:41.440
<v Speaker 2>poisonings were unintentional. He said, if you think that maybe

0:00:41.479 --> 0:00:44.599
<v Speaker 2>she deliberately poisoned the meal, you must find her not guilty.

0:00:45.159 --> 0:00:48.000
<v Speaker 2>If you think that it's likely that she deliberately poisoned

0:00:48.000 --> 0:00:51.080
<v Speaker 2>the meal, you must find her not guilty. With closing

0:00:51.200 --> 0:00:54.480

<v Speaker 1>percent for a fifth consecutive month, according to the latest

0:01:09.000 --> 0:01:12.760
<v Speaker 1>figures from the Australian Bureau of Statistics. The unemployment rate

0:01:12.800 --> 0:01:15.400
<v Speaker 1>measures the percentage of people who were looking for work

<v Speaker 1>of three thousand people, meant that the unemployment rate remained

0:01:35.520 --> 0:01:39.800
<v Speaker 1>steady for May. Australia's unemployment rate has hovered between three

0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:42.640
<v Speaker 1>point seven to four point one percent since December twenty

0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:45.920

<v Speaker 2>years of conflict in the region. Around twelve five hundred
