Officer told court accused discussed his relationship with Jesse Baird extensively
A police officer told the NSW Supreme Court that Beau Lamarre-Condon repeatedly discussed his on-off relationship with Jesse Baird during their friendship. She said she contacted him after seeing his name in the news about the alleged murders of Baird and Luke Davies, then alerted her boss that she had information for the investigation.
Senior Constable Nicole Harvell said about 80 per cent of their first six-hour shift’s conversation concerned Baird, and that Lamarre-Condon later sent her screenshots of messages with him. She also recounted a question about identifying who fired a gun in a shootout, asked days before the alleged killings, and described an alleged scheme involving flowers and a fabricated note. Lamarre-Condon, 31, denies murdering Baird, 26, and Davies, 29, and denies a separate aggravated break-in charge.
