Key Largo, Fla. (WFLA) – A Key Largo man has been arrested after finding the body of a missing woman hidden in a hotel room at a resort on Tuesday, the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office said.
On Monday morning, authorities responded to Key Largo’s Amoleidive Resort about a missing Key Largo woman identified as 43-year-old Nadine Marie Tillman after the family had not heard from her since Saturday.
A St. Pete McDonald’s worker suffocated a teenager who grabbed a ranch behind the counter, the affidavit says.
Investigators discovered that Tillman met with 33-year-old Dylan Lamb at the resort on Saturday morning.
The sheriff’s office found that the woman’s body was hidden in a closet that houses the water unit in the lamb’s room.
According to Miami news outlet WPLG, lawmakers said the woman had two dark eyes.
NBC affiliate WTVJ spoke with a hotel guest who stayed in the room next to the Rams.
“Her poor daughter has been knocking for everyone’s doors… And from my understanding, she tracked her mother down here, found her car, she had been missing for a few days and had not been in contact with her,” the woman said. “It’s just scary. It’s too close to the house.”
Witnesses told the outlet that deputies took a step forward and left the room and returned with the crime scene unit.

The hotel’s assistant general manager told WPLG that Lamb had booked the room using his mother’s phone number. The report said when an employee tried to get Lamb to move the room, he refused to communicate through a closed door.
According to the news outlet, after the lamb checked out of the room on Sunday morning, Housekeeping discovered three large garbage bags filled with dirty towels and bed sheets, explaining the contents as “heavy staining for substances that match blood, urine and feces.”
Lamb was found and arrested in the murder of Nadinez Tillman on Tuesday. WTVJ reported that LAMB faces additional fees, including donations.
Report fromWPLG said that Thilman said at the resort he “arranged a date with someone he met through a non-dated website.” Lamb reportedly said they met from the escort site ListCrawler and agreed to pay $200 for sex. Tillman is said to have taken away money without engaging in “agreed activities.”
Investigators told WLPG that the lamb prevented the woman from leaving and attacked her unconsciously. Lamb claimed he “goes crazy” after discovering that she was not breathing. Instead of calling 911, he decides to clean the scene and hide his body in the closet.
“I would like to thank the men and women from the Sheriff’s Office for strolling around the clock to be arrested in this incident,” Sheriff Rick Ramsay said. “The investigation is ongoing, but it appears that no other individuals are involved in this case.”
