  "account": "A former colleague of Beau Lamarre-Condon recounted in court how the 31-year-old approached her home on the night of February 22, 2024, and asked to borrow her hose to clean a van. The ex-police officer claimed he needed to scrub away blood from the vehicle, explaining that an out-of-body experience had made it hard for him to control himself. During the visit, he also expressed his guilt, saying he had \"done something bad\" without wishing to incriminate her. Concerned, the woman, identified as Fiona Rosso in the trial, noted his reference to an accidental gunshot involving Mr Baird and his boyfriend Luke Davies, suggesting Lamarre-Condon believed he was responsible for their deaths.",
  "summary": "A former colleague of Beau Lamarre-Condon, known by the pseudonym Fiona Rosso, tell a jury the accused stopped at her home unexpectedly days after the deaths of Jesse Baird and Luke Davies.",
