“She became exhausted because he was losing his memory every thirty seconds, like a goldfish, and Luke took it upon himself to care for them constantly.”

“Luke was told they had booked the flight a year and a half ago, but the husband’s condition had deteriorated over the past three months, so it would be their last trip to see their son, and Luke wanted it to be that way . as comfortable as possible,” she said.

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.

He then allegedly rented a white Toyota HiAce van from Sydney Airport before returning to the $3 million rented terrace house to collect their bodies on Monday evening, when the van was caught on CCTV outside the house.

On Tuesday, police claimed the officer made “partial confessions” about the killings to an acquaintance, but the alarm was only raised on Wednesday after the couple’s bloodied clothes and belongings were found in a container in Cronulla, in Sydney’s south.

Lamarre-Condon reportedly went to the hospital for day surgery last Tuesday – a day after the alleged shooting, 2GB reported.

The day after the operation, Lamarre-Condon is said to have driven to Bungonia in an apparent attempt to dump the bodies at one of several dams.

He later drove back to Sydney and is said to have bought weights at a Sydney department store at 11pm on Wednesday before returning to Bungonia alone.

The van is believed to have left the Bungonia area around 4.30am on Thursday in a possible attempt to move the bodies to a new location, police said.
