The New York mom who jumped to her death at Niagara Falls with her baby and young son wrote a series of harrowing posts detailing her heartbreak at splitting from her baby daddy.
Chianti Means, 33, wrote the Facebook posts under the name Diamond Scott in the weeks before police say she intentionally stepped over the guardrail at the popular Luna Island overlook Monday with her kids, 9-year-old Roman Rossman and 5-month-old Mecca Means.
“I wish someone would love me because the man that’s suppose to does not,” she wrote late last month, days before saying she was “sick of irritation, anger, sadness and rage.”
“Everyone please leave me alone I’m in love with my daughter father,” she wrote a few days later, on Oct. 1. “I want my family back. Respectfully Idgaf what I said about him before or what anyone else thinks.”
In another post from the same day, the mom wrote, “You have to hold on to the ones you love. Never know when you might lose them.”
In one of her most recent exchanges, the mom was asked why she had split from her ex.
“Cause I was a dumb a– pregnant bitch who swore up & down I ain’t want him,” she replied.
The haunting messages emerged as authorities — who determined the plunge was “intentional” — continued to scour the area for the three bodies in the wake of Monday’s tragedy.
“The investigation has determined that this incident was intentional in nature, though the circumstances remain under investigation,” state troopers said in a Wednesday statement.
“New York State Park Police and State Police search/rescue efforts were conducted with negative results.”
The Post reached out to cops on Thursday about the search but didn’t hear back immediately.
Meanwhile, tributes for Means and her kids flowed on social media.
“I have been speechless and crying and couldn’t sleep at all,” friend Kayshawna Morgane wrote on Facebook. “My heart is broken. Mental health is no joke.”
“I can’t even bear to write a post about her and share memories,” another friend Mich Molina penned. “I am literally sick to my stomach and I can’t even deal with the emotions I am feeling. Just know her and her children are dearly loved by me and my children.”
