THE man accused of killing Pakenham mum of three Kylie Blackwood will tomorrow begin his murder trial.
Scott Alan Murdoch, 38, from Morwell, was charged with Kylie’s murder in early April this year shortly after fresh CCTV evidence was released to the public.
It captured a car driving near her McCaffery Rise home on the day of her 1 August 2013 murder.
Murdoch is expected to enter his plea to the murder charge at the Melbourne County Court Committal Mention at 10am on Tuesday 16 August.
The Gazette will provide updated details as they come.
