Beau Lamarre-Condon continued giving evidence in the NSW Supreme Court as prosecutors questioned his account of the struggle in which he says he shot Jesse Baird. He has pleaded not guilty to murdering Baird and Luke Davies.

Prosecutors questioned Lamarre-Condon about his account of a struggle with Baird in the kitchen of a Paddington share house, including whether Baird lunged at him and pinned him near a wall.
Lamarre-Condon said he was aiming towards Baird’s right shoulder when he fired, and that the gun was about an arm’s length from Baird when it discharged.
He has pleaded not guilty to murdering Baird and Luke Davies in early 2024; the prosecution cross-examination was continuing on Monday, November 9, 2026.
