‘Hey hun’: police colleague messaged Beau Lamarre-Condon on Instagram after alleged murders, court hears

Trial also hears accused told police he wasn’t ‘avoiding them’ in three-minute call before he turned himself in after allegedly murdering Jesse Baird and Luke Davies

A police officer accused of a double murder told police he was not avoiding them despite vanishing for days after the incident, a Sydney court has heard.

The court heard police attempted to contact Beau Lamarre-Condon after the alleged murders, with a colleague messaging him on Instagram: “Hey hun ... can you please contact the crime manager at eastern suburbs asap when you get a chance?”

Lamarre-Condon has pleaded not guilty to murdering his ex partner Jesse Baird and Luke Davies in an inner-city terrace on 19 February 2024.
