A 4-year-old girl who was drowned by her mother off Coney Island had tragically begged not to be sent home — telling her father she was “scared to go back to mommy” before she was killed alongside her siblings, he revealed Wednesday at his ex’s sentencing. Shamir Small, the father of Liliana Stephens Merdy, said his daughter was fearful of going to see mom Erin Merdy, and he heartbreakingly shared that he told her, “I hope I see you again” before the child was brutally killed by her troubled mom in Sept. 2022.
