Voice notes about mindset heard in Sydney double murder trial

Voice notes sent by Beau Lamarre-Condon after the alleged killings were played to the jury in his double murder trial, the Guardian reported. The recordings, sent to a man he met on a dating app, include a message in which Lamarre-Condon says, “I’m in bed … not feeling the best.” In the same set of notes he says he was trying to “get back into a positive mindset.” The Guardian said the messages were sent in the days after he allegedly killed two men in a Sydney terrace. Prosecutors presented the recordings to the jury on Tuesday as part of the evidence in the case.

Why it matters

The notes reveal the defendant’s expressed mental state after the alleged murders, which could influence the jury’s assessment of his actions.
