Bodies of missing TV presenter (26) and boyfriend (29) found

Tributes continue to pour in


The bodies of the missing Australian television presenter Jesse Baird, 26, and his flight attendant boyfriend, Luke Davies, 29, have reportedly been found, almost a week after they went missing.

The remains were reportedly discovered in a rural area outside Sydney on Tuesday.

According to multiple Australian publications, the couple was killed by Baird’s ex-boyfriend, a police officer, who has since been arrested and charged with murder.

Senior Constable Beau Lamarre-Condon, 28, who allegedly shot and killed the couple, informed investigators where to search for their bodies.

The New South Wales Police said the bodies were discovered in the same bag used by Lamarre-Condon to transport them from Jesse’s Sydney home.

“I am exhausted. I barely have eaten or slept. We went home last night extremely deflated, but it’s not in our nature to give up. So, we rallied again this morning and have come upon a wonderful result for the families,” said Detective Sergeant Sasha Pinazza, who is in charge of the investigation, as quoted by SCMP.
