SeaWorld Orlando veteran trainer Dawn Brancheau was murdered Wednesday afternoon by a serial-killer whale named Tilikum. The brutal crime occurred at the park’s Shamu Stadium in front of hundreds of horrified visitors.
SeaWorld first claimed that Brancheau, who had worked at the park since 1994, had slipped into the orca tank, but have now admitted that the 12,000-pound whale took the 40-year-old trainer by her ponytail and dragged her into a watery grave.
According to witnesses, Tilikum tossed Brancheau around like a seal before viciously drowning her.
Brazilian tourist João Lúcio da Costa Sobrinho said he saw Brancheau’s body in the whales mouth, her face bloody.
He says:
It was terrible. It’s very difficult to see the image.
Park guest Victoria Biniak told news reporters:
The whale took off really fast, and then he came back around to the glass, jumped up, grabbed the trainer by the waist and started shaking her violently. The last thing we saw was her shoe floating.
While SeaWorld officials first insisted that Tilly was a good whale who kept to himself and paid her rent on time, investigators soon turned up the orca’s disturbing rap sheet.
In 1991, Tilly and two other whales attacked and murdered trainer Keltie Byrne in front of spectators at the now defunct Sealand of the Pacific aquarium in Victoria, Columbia. Tilly was sold to SeaWorld with the understanding that it would not be used as “display” whale, but only as a breeder.

The Killer knew its victim
Tilly was also responsible for the death of tourist Daniel Dukes at the Orlando SeaWorld. The incident was covered-up by SeaWorld officials who claimed that Dukes had jumped into the tank to swim with the whales.
The question this morning is: will Tilly finally be brought to justice? According to Sea World, the answer is no. Tilly will not be put down for the attacks.
Of course if a human coworker had shot Brancheau, everyone would be asking for justice and/or the death penalty. Tilly has proven time and time again that she is a remorse-less serial-killing machine that will not stop preying on humans.
It’s time to chop that bitch up and sell its remains to Revlon and other cosmetic companies.
