Former NSW police officer Beau Lamarre-Condon has pleaded not guilty to the murders of Sydney couple Jesse Baird and Luke Davies, according to prosecutors in a Sydney court. CCTV footage showed Lamarre-Condon sizing up a surfboard bag at a Decathlon store days before the alleged murders, with the bag clearing his friend's head by a few centimeters.
The prosecution alleged that Lamarre-Condon asked his friend if he would fit in the bag. Two days later, the police officer allegedly shot the two men and placed Baird in the bag purchased from the Westfield shopping center. The defence team claims the police officer acted in self-defense after disguising himself as an Uber Eats driver. The trial continues before justice Natalie Adams.
