She used to like to party here and there, do a little drinking, but I didn’t see any drug abuse or see that she was really irresponsible. It’s just tragic. I don’t know. She never gave us the sign that she would hurt her children. She loved her children.”Another uncle, Levy Merdy, said that the custody battle for 7-year-old Zachary particularly took a toll on her mental health.Chelsi 🫶🏽@Chelsiii5The mom that drown her 3 children in Coney Island not one, but THREE!Ages 7, 4, &amp; 3 months.
