Prosecutors say Beau Lamarre-Condon, an ex-cop charged over the killing of a Channel 10 journalist, sent a message after their breakup in which he allegedly claimed he had cancer. The claim is presented in court as part of the jury’s consideration of events leading up to the alleged killing.
Both outlets report that the alleged text is described as occurring months before the journalist’s death. The information is delivered during the trial, with jurors hearing testimony and arguments about the credibility of messages and the timeline surrounding the relationship and its end. The reports focus on the specific allegation that the cancer claim was fabricated, rather than on the motive or broader evidence.
While the articles draw from the same court proceedings, they present the same central point: that a cancer-related statement made in correspondence to the presenter is alleged to have been false. Neither source indicates a verdict or final outcome at this stage.
