Beau Lamarre-Condon, a former police officer, is on trial for the alleged murders of Jesse Baird and his partner, Luke Davies, in February 2024. During his testimony, he denied being 'obsessed' with Baird, asserting that he would have liked him regardless of his profession. The court heard about their relationship, which began with sexual encounters before evolving into romantic dates.
Lamarre-Condon faced intense questioning regarding his feelings for Baird, with the prosecutor highlighting messages that suggested strong emotions. He characterized his feelings as being 'smitten' rather than obsessed, and described his interactions with friends as light-hearted banter about their relationship dynamics. The trial continues under Justice Natalie Adams.
