A comedian has been charged with allegedly painting offensive graffiti at the Princes Park memorial for Eurydice Dixon.

Ms Dixon, herself an emerging comedian, was killed as she walked home through the Carlton North park from a gig in the city on June 13.

Flowers, candles and cards were laid at the place where she was killed in tribute to the 22-year-old woman.

Just days after Ms Dixon's death, police officers doing routine patrols of the area found lewd paint markings on the soccer pitch where her body was found.
