A 57-year-old woman in Florida is accused of intentionally killing her dog while inside Orlando International Airport, allegedly drowning the animal inside of the women’s bathroom because she was not going to be allowed to take the animal on the flight with her. Alison Agatha Lawrence was taken into custody on Tuesday and charged with one count of felony aggravated animal abuse in connection with the incident.

According to a news release from the Orlando Police Department, officers on Dec. 16, 2024, responded to the airport after being notified about “a dead animal” that was found by an airport employee inside one of the public women’s restrooms. The restroom where the animal was found was located before the facility’s TSA security checkpoints.

“Based on the investigation, the Orlando Police Department issued a warrant for the arrest of Alison Agatha Lawrence for Aggravated Animal Cruelty, a third-degree felony,” police wrote in the brief release.
