PICTURED: Sabrina Peckham, 41, who was eaten by alligator and dragged by 14-foot beast in shock attack video was arrested three months ago for trespassing in wetlands

A homeless Florida woman who was mauled to death and dragged into a waterway by a huge alligator was arrested several months ago for trespassing on wetlands.

Sabrina Peckham, 41, was found in the alligator’s jaws after being dragged into a canal by the 15-foot-long beast in Largo, Clearwater, on Friday. Her formal cause of death has yet to be determined.

“No matter how you say it, no one deserves to die like this,” her daughter wrote on social media.

Two months before her death, Peckham was arrested on July 14 for trespassing on a swampland just half a mile from where she was mauled, reports WFLA. She was ordered to pay $500 for that incident.

This wasn’t the first time she was arrested for trespassing, as she has multiple felonies dating back to 2014, records show. Peckham also had a history of convictions for theft and run-ins with police.

Several locals witnessed the gruesome sight of Peckham’s death Friday afternoon, as the alligator dragged away its prey and began recording the scene while alerting the Largo Fire Department.

Rescuers, working with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, were able to remove the alligator from the water before shooting it dead. Officials described him as “killed humanely” after the horrific attack.

Peckham’s daughter, Breauna Dorris, announced the sad news on social media.

She also wrote and posted about the family’s GoFundMe: ‘The past 24 hours have been filled with sadness and excruciating pain for our family.

“My mother, Sabrina Peckham, was a victim of the alligator attack at McCay Creek (Rainbow Village). Please understand that we do not have all the information yet as the medical examiners’ report is not yet ready.

“Some details I would like to share is that my mother did not ‘taunt’ the alligator, as some say in the news media comments.

The Florida alligator was found with a corpse clutched in its jaws while walking through a canal near Clearwater

Emergency responders, working with the Florida FWC, successfully removed the alligator from the water and subsequently euthanized it

“My mother was part of the homeless population that lived in the nearby wooded area. It is believed she was walking to or from her campsite near the creek in the dark and the alligator attacked from the water.

‘We expected to spend many more years with her. Unfortunately, God called her home sooner than our hearts were ready.”

Dorris addressed her mother in a heartfelt statement: “To my mother: I love you more than I ever said, I miss you more than you will ever know and I pray that you look down on me and your grandchildren.

‘Please protect us. I’m so sorry this happened to you. I pray that you are at peace and are no longer struggling or in pain. I pray that you found Mom and Dad and that you are all watching from above.”

Jennifer Dean, who lived near where the woman was killed, said, “A lot of my neighbors were here and they’re the ones who told me about the alligator.

The 4-meter-tall reptile held its victim tightly between its powerful jaws as it paddled across the waterway in the small town of Largo

“While we were standing here we heard a shot, I guess they killed the alligator.”

Once the alligator was dead, the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office was able to retrieve the victim’s body from the water.

“I could tell there was a body in his mouth, so I started recording,” JaMarcus Bullard told Bay News 9.

“I went to the fire department and reported it to them,” he said.

Researchers also took the time to examine the alligator, which was nearly four meters long.

It is believed the deadly reptile came from a nearby alligator-infested lake known as Ridgecrest Park.
