Beau Lamarre-Condon, a 31-year-old former police officer, underwent surgery at St Vincent's Hospital in Sydney shortly after allegedly shooting and killing two men, Jesse Baird and Luke Davies, in early 2024. The alleged murders occurred in Baird's Paddington home on February 19, 2024, with Lamarre-Condon allegedly using his police service weapon.
The surgery took place on the morning of February 21, 2024, two days after the alleged murders. The surgeon performed a minor operation and released Lamarre-Condon two hours later, with no sutures needed and no follow-up required. CCTV footage showed Lamarre-Condon purchasing cleaning equipment and tools on the day after the murders, as well as traveling to the area where the bodies were later found, Bungonia.
He claimed to be panicked and acting out of self-defense, per his defense lawyer John Stratton SC. The trial is ongoing before Justice Natalie Adams.
