A police officer accused of using his service weapon to murder a television presenter and his partner will face court more than a year after the pair went missing.

He is accused of then bundling the couple’s bodies in surfboard bags and dumping them at a rural property.

The 29-year-old has spent the past year in prison after the attack, which is believed to have been the result of a months-long campaign of “predatory behaviour” targeting Baird.

Lamarre-Condon briefly dated before the TV presenter before Baird began a relationship with Davies.

The case returned to Downing Centre Local Court on Tuesday after confidential discussions between prosecutors and the alleged killer’s lawyer Alex Curnick in a case conference.

Both sides agreed “things are progressing,” magistrate Megan Greenwood was told.

A forensic psychiatrist’s report was also tendered after Lamarre-Condon was assessed in recent weeks.

No pleas have been entered but the accused killer is expected to face the court at the next mention on June 17.

Lamarre-Condon is facing two counts of domestic violence-related murder, and one count of break and enter with intent to commit an indictable offence.

The men’s remains were found by police at the fence line of a rural property in Bungonia, near Goulburn, in the NSW Southern Tablelands.

Lamarre-Condon was sacked by the NSW Police Force in March 2024.

He joined the force in 2019 and previously ran a celebrity blog, posing in photos with dozens of A-listers including Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus and Harry Styles.

Lamarre-Condon is expected to appear via an audiovisual link on June 17.
