Posted

A quiet North Valley Stream street was the scene of a shooting late Monday night that left a 37-year-old mother of three dead.

Police responded to 1276 Barry Drive South shortly after 11 p.m., when other occupants of the home discovered Jeanmarie Beaudouin lying on the front lawn with multiple gunshot wounds. When police arrived, Beaudouin was in critical condition, and she was transported to nearby Franklin Hospital. She died a short time later, and her body was taken to Nassau University Medical Center for an autopsy.

Nassau County Police Lt. Kevin Smith said that Beaudouin came home at around 11 p.m. and was walking up her driveway when shots rang out, hitting her several times. Smith said it is unclear where Beaudouin, who was unemployed, was coming from.

As of Tuesday night, police had not determined a motive for the shooting, and no suspects had been identified.

Beaudouin lived in a basement apartment with her husband and three children, ages 10, 6 and 3. School district officials confirmed that the two older children attend Howell Road School.

Nassau County Police ask that anyone with information call Crime Stoppers at (800) 244-TIPS. All calls will be kept anonymous.
