Former police officer awaits trial for double murder

A former police officer named Beau Lamarre-Condon is charged with murdering Jesse Baird and Luke Davies. He has been in prison for over a year while awaiting trial. The incident occurred on February 19, 2024, in a home in Paddington, where he allegedly shot both victims with his police-issued gun. Lamarre-Condon's fate may depend on a psychiatric report that is expected soon. This report will look into his mental state at the time of the alleged murders. His lawyer informed the court that the report is due on April 1. After the report is released, Lamarre-Condon’s Legal Aid team will review it until April 30. They will then meet with prosecutors to discuss what will happen next in the case.
