Beau Lamarre-Condon Accuses Female Friend in Police Statement: ‘I Must Tell the Truth’

In a significant development in the ongoing murder trial of Beau Lamarre-Condon, court proceedings on Monday revealed key details from a 50-minute recorded conversation he had at the Silverwater Correctional Centre with an unnamed friend.

The meeting occurred on December 14, 2024, nearly ten months after Lamarre-Condon was accused of murdering Jesse Baird and Luke Davies. Prior to this discussion, the friend testified that Lamarre-Condon had confessed the murders to him during a phone call on February 19, 2024.

The friend, who cannot be named for legal reasons, previously stated in court that Lamarre-Condon requested he take a day off work to assist in cleaning the crime scene and disposing of the bodies. During the recorded session, the friend interpreted Lamarre-Condon’s comment about needing to ‘bring your big boy diapers’ as an indication that he would be making uncomfortable admissions during their conversation.

As the recorded meeting was played in court, it became apparent that Lamarre-Condon criticized his friend, calling him ‘dumb’ and suggesting he was unreliable. He expressed his frustration, saying, ‘This is the annoying thing about you, I love you, but if I was going to tell a story to [my other friends], they’re more likely to get it accurate.’

The friend revealed his own frustration, claiming that he felt cornered by Lamarre-Condon’s approach on the day of the alleged murders, during which Lamarre-Condon allegedly admitted, ‘I’ve killed people.’

Despite his insistence of having taken accountability for the deaths, Lamarre-Condon attempted to downplay his role, repeatedly stating, ‘I didn’t even f***ing do it. Use your brain.’ At one point, when the friend expressed a desire to leave, Lamarre-Condon urged him to stay calm and engage in further discussion.

Throughout their conversation, he maintained that any missteps were due to human error, asserting, ‘I know you’re not a liar,’ while also acknowledging the difficulties his friend faced being involved in the situation.

As the dialogue progressed, Lamarre-Condon began recounting events from the night of the alleged murders; however, he quickly changed topics, suggesting he might be revealing too much. He remarked on an instance when he visited Baird’s home, saying, ‘I hadn’t spoken to Jesse since November [2023] but I’m kind of aware he’s moving house.’

Amidst the conversation, the friend mentioned that Lamarre-Condon entered Baird’s home without permission, a fact underscored under cross-examination as the friend disclosed he was wearing a recording device during their discussion. When questioned by Lamarre-Condon about this, he deceitfully claimed he was not.
