NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb has faced significant scrutiny over her handling of the alleged double murder of Jesse Baird and Luke Davies. Webb, who has been under pressure, defended her response to the incident by quoting Taylor Swift lyrics, stating 'Haters gonna hate' in a Tuesday interview. This unusual defense has drawn criticism, including from NSW MP Sue Higginson, who slammed Webb's use of the pop star's words. Amidst the controversy, Webb has taken steps to dismiss the accused, Constable Beau Lamarre-Condon, from the NSW Police Force. Lamarre-Condon, who had lodged a formal bullying complaint against a colleague days after the alleged murders and hours before surrendering to police, is now facing charges. The NSW government has expressed its support for Commissioner Webb despite the backlash.
