Jurors in the NSW supreme court have been shown CCTV footage detailing the movements of Beau Lamarre-Condon across Sydney following the alleged murders of Jesse Baird and Luke Davies. Mr Lamarre-Condon, a 31-year-old former senior constable, has pleaded not guilty to the murders of his ex-partner, Jesse Baird, and Mr Baird's new partner, Luke Davies, stating they died in two separate violent struggles.
CCTV played on Tuesday showed Mr Lamarre-Condon arriving on foot at an Avis car rental depot at approximately 9pm on 19 February 2024, around 12 hours after the alleged killings. Prosecutor Brett Hatfield SC stated that a receipt from Mr Lamarre-Condon's Uber account indicated he hired a rideshare from Kensington to the rental car depot. The accused was then seen driving out of the depot in a Toyota Hiace van, which forensics officers later found to have significant blood staining.
GPS data from the van reportedly showed it was parked near the rear roller door of Mr Baird's house in Paddington at about 11pm, leaving 22 minutes later, according to Mr Hatfield. The prosecution's case has focused on the various vehicles Mr Lamarre-Condon allegedly used to travel around Sydney while cleaning the alleged crime scene and disposing of the bodies.
Further CCTV from 18 February, the day before the alleged murders, showed Mr Lamarre-Condon's mother hiring an SUV while her son waited outside. Mr Hatfield previously told the jury that Mr Lamarre-Condon had his mother hire the Mazda CX-5 because he intended to kill only Mr Baird. The prosecution alleges that after being surprised by Mr Davies making a triple-zero call, Mr Lamarre-Condon shot the 29-year-old through a door, necessitating a larger vehicle and additional purchases for the second body.
Audio of the triple-zero call from Mr Davies' phone was played to the jury on Friday, where an operator was heard saying, "Caller disconnected, no request," after muffled words and sounds. Mr Lamarre-Condon's barrister stated his client made the call after killing Mr Baird in self-defence, but it was cut short by a second struggle in which Mr Davies died. The trial continues.
