Woman killed in Florida alligator attack is identified
Forty-one-year-old Sabrina Peckham’s body was pulled from a waterway in Largos on Friday
Peckham was earlier arrested for trespassing on a wetland area just blocks away from the waterway on 134th Avenue North and 121st Street North where her body was discovered, WESH reports. She was fined $500 over the incident which took place two months ago.
Peckham’s daughter, Breauna Dorris, said in a heartfelt Facebook post that her mother was a part of the homeless population and lived near the body of water.
“It is believed that she may have been walking to or from her campsite near the creek in the dark and the alligator attacked from the water,” Ms Dorris wrote in her post. “No matter how you put it, no one deserves to die like this.”
footage of Peckham’s lifeless body was recorded by witnesses before authorities arrived at the scene. JaMarcus Bullard, who first alerted authorities, said that he was on his way to a job interview when he looked towards the lake and saw the horrifying scene.
