The case against the former police officer accused of killing TV presenter Jesse Baird and his partner Luke Davies faces significant delays.
The case against alleged double murderer Beau Lamarre-Condon faces significant delays due to a change in legal representation at a stage that a magistrate described as “regrettable”.
In October, Lamarre-Condon’s former lawyer, John Walford, said he was in the “last throes” of finalising instructions regarding a plea. But at Downing Centre Local Court on Tuesday morning, Walford was granted leave to withdraw representation. Crown prosecutor Brendan Donnelly said the defence team initially wanted to adjourn the case until March, which the Crown opposed and asked for further evidence as to why a psychiatrist was not available earlier.
