"GERALDINE BEARDY"
28X18X.5 INCHES | 1/4" MODERN BIRCH FRAME
Geraldine Beardy was a 29-year-old mother of three from northern Manitoba’s Garden Hill First Nation. Beardy’s life ended during a trip to Winnipeg when a Sherbrook Street store owner allegedly hit her over the head with a baseball bat after she stole luncheon meat worth $1.49 on September 13, 2009. She died of her injuries less than one week later, and the prosecutor dropped manslaughter charges against the store owner after one of the Crown’s main witnesses left Canada.
