Lamarre-Condon is alleged to have shot the victims at Baird's home in Paddington before disposing of their bodies in surfboard bags near Bungonia, approximately 200 kilometers southwest of Sydney.

Police believe the murders were premeditated and followed a campaign of predatory behavior towards Baird, with whom Lamarre-Condon had a brief on-and-off relationship.

A bullet casing found at the crime scene was linked to a police-issued handgun belonging to Lamarre-Condon.

The bodies of Baird and Davies were discovered after a week-long search, four days following the alleged murders.

Beau Lamarre-Condon, a 29-year-old former police officer, is accused of murdering Channel 10 presenter Jesse Baird and his boyfriend Luke Davies in February 2024.

On November 5, 2024, during a court appearance, Lamarre-Condon's lawyer withdrew from the case, leading to the appointment of Legal Aid NSW to represent him.

The Crown prosecutor opposed the lengthy adjournment, arguing for a shorter timeline to establish the case's progression.

Magistrate Clare Farnan expressed regret over the late change in legal representation and scheduled the case to return to court later this month.

Authorities became concerned for Baird and Davies after bloodied clothing and personal items were discovered in a skip bin in Cronulla, prompting further investigations.

Since his arrest on February 23, 2024, Lamarre-Condon has been in custody and was dismissed from the NSW Police Force following the allegations.

Lamarre-Condon has not yet entered a plea and appeared in court via video link from prison, thanking the magistrate before being removed from the screen.

Legal Aid requested a two-week adjournment to review evidence and coordinate with the Crown prosecution, after initially seeking a five-month delay for a forensic psychiatrist's report.
