The ex-husband of Gold Coast mother-of-three Kelly Wilkinson allegedly offered a workmate $1,000 to drive him to her house where he is accused of killing her by dousing her in petrol and setting her alight.
Bradley Bell, a 25-year-old colleague of ex Brian Earle Johnston, was arrested at a business in Coomera on Tuesday morning and charged with Ms Wilkinson's murder.
His lawyer has said he will defend the charge.
Queensland Police will allege that Bell knew Johnston was planning to kill the mother-of-three and drove his colleague to Ms Wilkinson's home on April 20.
Bell and Johnston allegedly stopped to fill up a jerry can of petrol on the way to Ms Wilkinson's Arundel property that day, police will claim in court.
