Broward County police offer $20,000 reward for murder of woman and daughter

A week after Beatrice Saint-Ville and her 4-year-old daughter, Janelle, were murdered in Broward County Thursday night, authorities are increasing their reward to $20,000 for information leading to the case.

On Thursday, the Broward County Sheriff’s Office announced a $20,000 reward for anyone who provides information leading to the arrest of the person or people involved in the Saintville and Janelle murders.

CrimeLine is funding half of the bounty, with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives picking up the rest.

Broward County Sheriff’s Office Homicide Detectives continue to seek the public’s help in identifying the killers of Beatrice St. Vier and her daughter, Janelle Suffrant…” the Broward County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.

At approximately 11:50 p.m. on June 7, the Florida Highway Patrol received a call about a shooting on the Florida Turnpike south of Hollywood Boulevard.

The sheriff’s office said they found Sanitville, 27, and her daughter suffering from gunshot wounds inside the vehicle.

Her daughter, San, was pronounced dead at the scene. Meanwhile, Sanitwell was taken to hospital where she later died.

No details have been released about the cause of the shooting or the suspect.

Saintvil’s sister Kyanna Librun told NBC 6, “We want to know who did it. We want to see their faces and ask them why. Why? A 4-year-old girl and a 27-year-old mother, they’ve never had problems with anybody, why? We want to know, why?”

Broward police said they are “using every investigative method available to find the person responsible.”

Anyone with information about the suspect’s identity or location is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 954-943-8477. Tips can be left anonymously.
