Matthew Charles Johnson, 37, stood with his hands on the railing of the dock at the Geelong court as Magistrate Rosemary Carlin found there was enough evidence to support a conviction and ordered him to stand trial next year in the Supreme Court.
The court heard today that copies of statements Williams had made to police were found on a computer hard drive and in printed form in Johnson's cell after the killing.
