A 19-year-old man accused of beating his 16-month-old daughter within an inch of her life never wanted the girl to be born at all, reports say.
Based on his Facebook posts, the teen dad had never pretended that he wanted a child from his girlfriend and mother of his first baby, 17-year-old Tammy Lewis.
The Brooklyn, New York, resident Shaquan Taylor once wrote about his then girlfriend’s pregnancy, “Feel mad disrespected.” That was February 2016 around the time his daughter Nylah Lewis was born.
“Told that lil b—h to get abortion (and) she tells me she is but still keep it. Exactly why I hate that lil b—h,” Taylor ranted in one Facebook post.
He griped frequently via Facebook about his troubled relationship with the girl’s mother, Tammy.
“I didn’t even want to have a baby by her (and) it’s sad to say, but f— it, s— happens,” he wrote in February 2016.
“Please, don’t ask who Nylah’s mom is, nor do I still f— with her cause NO. Just f—-d (that) hotty a–, that’s it.
“She really getting me aggy,” he wrote. “Aggy” is slang for agitated.

Despite the long-lingering animosity, though, the dueling parents agreed that Taylor could spend some time with his daughter on Father’s Day, and that was when he used the opportunity to vent his frustrations on his 16-month-old daughter.
Dad and daughter were alone together when 17-year-old Tammy Lewis received a Facebook message telling her there was a problem with Nylah and she needed to come to the apartment.
The critically injured child was fighting for breath when the mother arrived, and Tammy grabbed the girl and stormed out of the apartment.
Police said Taylor chased the pair down to the lobby, where he flattened the mother with a single punch as she clutched their little girl.
An emergency service crew arrived and grabbed Nylah, rushing the girl to the hospital as Taylor continued to chase and beat the teenage mother.
The helpless child remained in critical condition for three days after the Father’s Day beatdown that left her with multiple skull fractures, bleeding on the brain and a black eye.
At a point, Nylah needed a blood transfusion and officials feared the battered child wouldn’t survive the attack, but she fought on.
Taylor denied beating his daughter, initially claiming she fell off the bed. He later changed his story to say she fell off the toilet.
Either way, investigators said, none of the girl’s injuries were consistent with a fall.
Taylor remained held on $250,000 bail on Tuesday, June 27, when he marked his 19th birthday behind bars.
Nylah fought for her life for five days after the horrific assault, but her tiny body gave up on Friday, June 23, and she was buried on Saturday, July 1.
Meanwhile, Taylor’s new girlfriend is currently pregnant for him.
