Secretly recorded jail call features in Lamarre-Condon murder trial

A secretly recorded conversation played to the jury in Beau Lamarre-Condon’s murder trial captures him denying that he killed Jesse Baird and Luke Davies. He said he entered Baird’s home to collect belongings, where a scuffle led to Baird being shot, and claimed Davies later fatally shot himself while trying to grab the gun.

The 50-minute recording was made in December 2024 at Silverwater Correctional Centre, about ten months after the deaths. Lamarre-Condon said he would not have used his police-issued firearm if he had planned a murder, adding that he could have obtained a gun for $10,000 through young people he worked with as a police youth engagement officer. His friend, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has alleged Lamarre-Condon confessed to him on the day of the killings and asked for help disposing of the bodies.
