Shocking new claims on alleged double murder
Shocking new claims about senior constable Beau Lamarre-Condon, who was accused of murdering Sydney couple Jesse Baird and Luke Davies, have been made by police.
The accusations were revealed by Ben Fordham on 2GB radio on Thursday.
Fordham revealed that police allege Constable Lamarre-Condon fired three shots at the Sydney couple from his police-issued gun.
The number of shots was reportedly confirmed by one of Baird’s neighbours, whose CCTV security cameras recording the sound of three shots being fired just after 9.30am on Monday, February 19 in Paddington.
The neighbour reportedly reviewed their security cameras a few days after the alleged murders, when news of the couple's disappearance hit the media.
Fordham added that police will further allege Constable Lamarre-Condon used bullets stolen from a firing range a fortnight before the killing to refill his gun, to not raise suspicious from his superiors when the gun was returned.
Police have alleged that the gun was taken from Miranda police station on Friday night and was stored Balmain police station the night after the alleged murders.
The gun was then allegedly returned Miranda police station on Tuesday, fully loaded as if no shots were fired.
Police Commissioner Karen Webb told ABC’s 7.30 on Wednesday night that officers could store a weapon overnight at a police station or inside an approved safe at home, but would need to gain permission to do so from their superiors.
She did not comment on the claims surrounding Constable Lamarre-Condon’s gun storage, as it would form a part of the investigation.
