In scenes reminiscent of the days after Princess Diana’s death, a sea of flowers has been left outside the home where police allege TV presenter Jesse Baird and his flight attendant partner Luke Davies were murdered.
Human remains, believed to belong to the loving couple, were discovered Tuesday afternoon in surfing bags and buried in a lonely forest grave.
Mr Baird, 26, and Mr Davies, 29, had spent the night before their alleged murder partying at the Beresford Hotel club in Surry Hills with friends before returning to the ex’s $1.5 million rented terrace house -Channel 10 roving reporter in Paddington.

Lamarre-Condon is said to have driven to the Southern Tablelands with an acquaintance in a rented van last Wednesday and bought an angle screwdriver and a padlock along the way.
But police were unable to discover their bodies for more than a week after Lamarre-Condon allegedly rented a white HiAce van to hide them on a remote farm in Bungonia, about 180km southwest of Sydney.
