Friend travels from Gold Coast to support Lamarre-Condon at murder trial
Jodie Parker, a friend Lamarre-Condon calls “Mamma Jodie”, has travelled from the Gold Coast to attend his double murder trial in Sydney and has supported him in court each day. Her presence has drawn attention because he told the court he often sought her spiritual advice, including around the time of an alleged break-in at his ex-boyfriend Jesse Baird’s home.
Lamarre-Condon denies breaking in, saying he had a key and was invited to stay; he told the court he wanted to check Baird’s phone to see whether he was dating other men. He said he messaged Parker on 17 August 2023 asking for “words of wisdom”, then sent her the next day an exchange with Baird from 16 August. Another friend described Baird’s polite reply as “savage”, interpreting it as a sign he was not romantically interested.
