A mysterious triple-0 call was received by emergency services on the morning alleged murder cop Beau Lamarre-Condon is accused of shooting dead Ten’s roving reporter Jesse Baird and his Qantas flight attendant lover Luke Davies.

But the call at 9.54am last Monday from Mr Baird’s phone at his home was disconnected before anyone said anything and detectives did not follow up, NSW Police admitted today.

The call came within four minutes of neighbors saying they heard shots coming from the $3 million rented terrace house in Paddington, in Sydney’s east.

But police say no one reported the gunshots to police until they were questioned by detectives days later.

Deputy Commissioner David Hudson said the investigation into the number of shots fired was continuing, but reports from neighbors ranged from “one to several.”

“Four minutes after the shots were fired, a Triple-0 call was made from Jesse’s phone but the call was disconnected,” he said.

“Nothing was said or heard from my understanding…very briefly.”

During a lengthy news conference Monday morning, police detailed new evidence in the alleged double murder.

The hunt for the bodies of the two men continues, with divers searching dams in the southern Tablelands after Lamarre-Condon reportedly traveled to a property there last week.

Police also revealed they believe Lamarre-Condon had previously sneaked into Mr Baird’s home and deleted important contacts and messages from his phone following a bad break-up between Mr Baird and the famous hunter turned police officer.

Mr Baird, a presenter and producer from Ten’s Studio 10, had previously told friends he feared he was being stalked at his home and had seen a shadowy figure in his bedroom one evening.

“My understanding was that (the relationship) was an on and off,” Dep Comm Hudson said.

“Some of the suspect’s behavior, which will appear in court later, was likely indicative of predatory behavior.

‘The relationship, which ended at the end of last year, did not end well.

‘We believe that the suspect visited Jessie’s home address. We suspect he used a key to enter the building.

‘We believe he took possession of Jesse’s phone and deleted contacts and messages from that phone before leaving the premises.

“At this stage we are bringing that all together through witnesses.”

Dep Comm Hudson said there were a number of “entrances to the premises” of Mr Baird’s home that were not reported to police at the time.

But he said detectives would investigate claims that Mr Baird submitted a written report to Bondi police about a burglary at his home last August.

He added that Lamarre-Condon often hid the fact that he was an on-duty police officer when meeting people.

He added: ‘The suspect was not completely forthcoming about his work with his acquaintances.

“There were a lot of people we talked to who didn’t know he was a police officer.”

Five important revelations from the press conference

1. Jesse Baird had disclosed to friends that he was being stalked and last August it was reported to Bondi Police Station that his Paddington home had been broken into. Police said they believe Mr. Baird and Lamarre-Condon were still in an on-again, off-again relationship at the time.

2. Police revealed that Lamarre-Condon allegedly broke into the property ‘a number of times’, including entering to access Mr Baird’s phone, deleting contacts from the device and then leaving to go

3. Neighbors reported hearing gunshots at 9:50 a.m. Monday morning, but did not report it to police at the time. Four minutes later, a triple 0 call was made on Jesse Baird’s phone, but the call was disconnected.

4. Police will allege that after the couple’s murder on Wednesday, Lamarre met with a female acquaintance and made “partial confessions” about his crimes. The pair visited a store where Lamarre-Condon allegedly purchased an angle grinder and a padlock. Police will allege Lamarre-Condon then drove the pair to the Bungonia estate, which he had previously visited during a previous relationship, and cut the lock and replaced it with a new lock. He then allegedly drove the vehicle to the rear of the property, where he spent 30 minutes while the acquaintance waited for him.

Police said the acquaintance is an innocent party and did not know the bodies would be in the back of the vehicle.

The pair then drove back to Sydney.

Police allege Lamarre-Condon returned to the property later that evening after purchasing weights and disposing of the bodies.

5. Police believe Lamarre-Condon returned to the property on Thursday sometime between 11:30 a.m. and 8:30 p.m. after the acquaintance became suspicious. They believe he moved the body to another location and they may not be in the dam being searched today in the NSW Southern Highlands.
