She was arraigned Friday morning in Quincy District Court and pleaded not guilty. Prosecutors had asked for a $200,000 cash bail and GPS monitoring. They cited concerns about her alleged actions following the shooting, saying she did not go home and changed locations repeatedly. A judge elected for a $20,000 bail without monitoring.
State and local police responded to a call of shots fired with a person down at South Shore Plaza around 3 p.m. on Saturday.
Responders found Beasley wounded on the ground. Investigators haven't said how many times he was shot.
The shooter fled the area and remains on the loose, police said.
