‘How was your Monday?’: Lamarre-Condon’s message hours after alleged murders played in court

Voice notes exchanged between Beau Lamarre-Condon and a man he met on a dating app shed light on his mental state following the alleged murders of Jesse Baird and Luke Davies. In the recordings, Lamarre-Condon, 31, claimed to be feeling unwell and struggling to get back into a positive mindset in the days after the February 19, 2024 double murder in Sydney.

He stated he was not feeling well, had recently undergone a minor surgery, and had cancelled plans for the following weekend due to his health concerns. The man also noted Lamarre-Condon's removal of his Instagram account and his decision to shut down all social media, claiming it was a mental break. His defence team argues that the murders were committed in self-defense during two separate struggles with Lamarre-Condon. The trial continues before Justice Natalie Adams.
