## Key points

- Lamarre-Condon briefly claimed schizophrenia symptoms on a police helpline call.
- He withdrew the claim and asked to start his statement again.
- He denies two murder charges and a break-and-enter charge.

## Summary

Beau Lamarre-Condon, a former NSW police officer accused of murdering Jesse Baird and Luke Davies, called a police helpline hours before handing himself in. A recording played in court captures him reporting workplace bullying and briefly saying it had caused “symptoms of schizophrenia”, before asking to restart and removing that claim.

The call was made on 23 February 2024, the day he was arrested at Bondi Police Station; Baird and Davies had disappeared five days earlier. The court also heard that Lamarre-Condon had asked a friend whether someone with schizophrenia could be criminally charged, and that he had told the friend, “I've killed people,” while allegedly asking for help to clean up bodies. He has pleaded not guilty to two counts of domestic violence-related murder and one count of break and enter.
