Beau Lamarre-Condon after alleged double murder
Video released by the court shows the alleged killer at a number of locations after the deaths of Luke Davies and Jesse Baird.
Jurors have been shown photographs of decomposed bodies in the case of former NSW police officer Beau Lamarre-Condon, who has pleaded not guilty to the murders of Jesse Baird and Luke Davies in February 2024. The third week of the double murder trial has focused on the discovery of the remains in rural New South Wales. Forensic officer Greg Moon provided evidence on Thursday about the condition of the decomposed bodies, which were found in surfboard or stand-up paddleboard bags at the Greek monastery in Bungonia.
Most of Baird and Davies' relatives have not been present in court for the gruesome forensic evidence. The bodies were discovered inside two bags, with the smaller one containing one of the victims inside a larger bag. Christine Abela, another investigator, immediately recognized something was amiss upon arriving at the rural property more than a week after the men's deaths.
She noticed a strong smell and multiple indicators that the remains had been at the monastery for several days. Concrete blocks, a gym weight, and a cut padlock were also found at Cella Farm, where Lamarre-Condon allegedly tried to sink the bodies in a dam. His actions to clean up and dispose of the bodies have been scrutinized during the trial.
