Two bodies found in search for missing Sydney couple

Australian police say two bodies have been found during the search for missing Sydney couple Jesse Baird and Luke Davies.

"We are very confident that we have located Luke and Jesse," NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb said.

Beaumont Lamarre-Condon, a police officer who once dated Mr Baird, was charged with allegedly murdering the pair last Monday.

The bodies were discovered on a rural property in the town of Bungonia.

Police said that after initially refusing to cooperate with the investigation, Mr Lamarre-Condon finally disclosed where the two bodies were located on Tuesday morning.

Detective Superintendent Daniel Doherty said the remains were found "near the entrance to the [Bungonia] property" and that attempts had been made "to cover the bodies with rock and debris".

He added that police will now allege "two surf bags" were used to transport the deceased couple from Mr Baird's inner city Paddington home, where it is believed they were killed.

Divers had been scouring dams and searching farmland in the rural area - which is located two hours south of Sydney - for days, after a new crime scene was established there over the weekend.
