A former Melbourne memorabilia dealer has admitted killing a graphic artist in 2001 before stashing his body headfirst in a wheelie bin. According to court documents, Mr Christianos was found lying headfirst in the bin, covered in tanbark and soil, and locked away in a unit filled with Harry Potter merchandise and sporting memorabilia. The bin had remained on site even though the killer stopped paying rent shortly after he stashed the body. On Tuesday, White - now 62 - pleaded guilty to manslaughter in Melbourne Magistrates Court. When the storage facility owner discovered the body last year, he called White, who still had the same phone number.
