Policeman charged with murder of missing Sydney couple
Beau Lamarre, a 28-year-old police officer, has been charged with murdering missing Australian TV personality Jesse Baird and his boyfriend Luke Davies.
On Wednesday cops launched a frantic search after the couple’s items – soaked in blood, were found in a bin near Sydney.
Lamarre, Baird’s ex-boyfriend, was being sought by police and handed himself in on Friday.
Detectives have yet to find the couple’s bodies or confirm their cause of death.
Police believe the couple were killed on Monday inside Baird’s house before their bodies were moved in a white van.
Witnesses told cops that they heard shouting and a “verbal argument” that morning, and the rented van was seen on CCTV later that evening. The van was found on Friday morning in Sydney’s south.
Police have said a bullet matching Lamarre’s work-issued gun was found at the crime scene in Paddington as was a “significant” amount of blood and upturned furniture.
