A clear picture has emerged of the man who fathered the three children who were killed along with their 25-year-old mother Lashanda Armstrong when she drove her minivan into the Hudson River. And it’s not a pretty picture at all. The serial cheater who berated his longtime girlfriend just before she drowned herself and their three kids in the Hudson River won’t face any charges in the tragic deaths. Although Jean Pierre apparently violated an order of protection issued hours before the Tuesday tragedy, prosecutors said the case is closed. “Unless something I am unaware of comes up, there is not a need for a grand jury investigation,” said Orange County District Attorney Frank Phillips. “There are no other targets of the investigation.” A neighbor of Pierre’s longtime love, Lashanda Armstrong, told the Daily News that her death ride in the family van followed an ugly 30-minute confrontation with Pierre at her Newburgh apartment. “The dad was banging on the door real loud,” Latoya James, 30, said Friday. “He called to her, ‘Open the f—— door!’ He was there about a half an hour – he was on the phone as well.” Earlier in the day, Pierre was served with an order of protection barring him from “harassment, menacing, reckless endangerment” or other crimes against his family. The order was linked to a Feb. 7 incident where Pierre, 26, left his 2-year-old son alone at home – and the toddler wandered barefoot and half-naked into the snow at 1:15 a.m. Another neighbor told The News that Pierre abandoned the boy to see another woman, and police confirmed that 20-year-old Shannel Baez was arrested after posing as the boy’s mother. Pierre and Armstrong were fighting over his infidelities just before she took the six-block route into the river. James said that Pierre arrived around 6:30 p.m., causing a ruckus until he left around 7 p.m. Armstrong, 25, posted a Facebook message apologizing in advance for the murder-suicide at 7:13 p.m. More details:
