Shocking new details emerge on the alleged murder of Jesse Baird & Luke Davies

NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb has issued a heartfelt statement regarding the alleged murder of Sydney couple Jesse Baird and Luke Davies.
The case has taken a chilling twist as it was revealed that the accused is none other than a fellow police officer, Beau Lamarre-Condon.
The tragic loss of former Channel 10 presenter Jesse Baird, 26, and flight attendant Luke Davies, 29, has sent shockwaves through the community.
The couple's bodies are yet to be found, with police officers working tirelessly around the clock in the hopes of bringing closure to their grieving families.
The accused, Lamarre-Condon, 28, has been charged with two counts of murder.
It is alleged that he used his police-issued glock in the killings.
Commissioner Webb urged the public to remain patient as the investigation continues, assuring them that every effort is being made to uncover the truth.
'I would like to extend my heartfelt condolences to the families and friends of Luke Davies and Jesse Baird. It is difficult to comprehend the grief and pain of their loss,' she said in a statement.
'I acknowledge this week’s events are distressing for many, and I share the sadness and shock about the alleged nature of Luke and Jesse’s deaths.'
'I understand there are many unanswered questions, and while I cannot comment on the matter before the courts, I can reassure Luke and Jesse’s loved ones, and the people of NSW, that we are working around the clock to find those answers.'
She also called on anyone with information to come forward and assist the police in their ongoing investigation.
It was reported that Lamarre-Condon used Baird’s phone to send misleading texts to his housemates, suggesting he was moving to Perth.
This initially led police to believe that Baird was still alive.
A subsequent message reportedly asked his housemate to put his belongings out on the street and said he would send cleaners to the home.
The case took a grim turn when police discovered bloodied clothes and possessions belonging to Baird and Davies in a Cronulla skip bin, leading them to suspect a double homicide.
In a broader context, Commissioner Webb also addressed the NSW Police's historical failings in investigating crimes against the state’s LGBTQI+ community and the 'increased suffering experienced by victims and their families where the crimes were motivated by bias against members of the LGBTIQ community'.
This was in response to the Special Commission of Inquiry into LGBTIQ hate crimes in NSW, which investigated potential bias in 34 suspicious and unsolved deaths between 1970 and 2010.
'To the victims and families that NSW Police failed by not adequately and fairly investigating those deaths between 1970 and 2010, I am sorry,' she said.
'I apologise for the gaps in those investigative processes where records and exhibits were lost or not examined with enough rigour.'
She also pledged to improve the police force's approach to serving all members of the community.
'I assure the LGBTIQ community that under my leadership, NSW Police will use these lessons to continue to improve the way it serves all members of the community with respect, fairness, and inclusivity,' she added.
'The mistakes of the past will not define our future.'
As the investigation into the tragic deaths of Baird and Davies continues, we can only hope that justice will be served and that their families will find some measure of peace.
