NSW Police have laid new charges against Beau Lamarre-Condon — the former police officer charged with murdering Sydney couple Luke Davies and Jesse Baird in February.

The 29-year-old now faces three additional charges related to domestic violence and break and enter.

Lamarre-Condon has been refused bail and will remain in police custody until his next court appearance in August.

Here’s what we know.

Allegations against Beau Lamarre-Condon

Police began investigating the disappearance of Baird and Davies in mid-February after neighbours reported hearing gunshots from Baird’s home in inner-Sydney.

Following a search, Lamarre-Condon handed himself into police before being charged with murder.

Baird and Davies’ bodies were then found at a rural property in Bungonia, near the regional city of Goulburn.

New charges

Lamarre-Condon’s next court appearance is scheduled for 13 August in Sydney. He has not yet entered a plea to any of the charges against him.

The new domestic violence-related murder charges could replace the original murder charges as the case proceeds through the courts. However, it’s not yet clear which charges will be prosecuted.

NSW Police declined to comment on the active court case.
