Police are accusing a 51-year-old Sandy Bay man of influencing a witness to manufacture evidence.
The accused will appear in the Hobart Magistrates Court this afternoon.
“The actions of a number of people are being investigated and … the investigation will be ongoing for some time,” police said.
Neill-Fraser was convicted of killing her partner Bob Chappell on a yacht in 2009.
Last week, Karen Patricia Nancy Keefe, 41, was charged with perverting the course of justice and corrupting a witness.
Then, on Monday, a 57-year-old man was also charged with perverting the course of justice.
