A Florida man is accused of hiding a dead body inside a hotel room closet and the next guest stayed in the room without noticing it, according to officials.

33-year-old Dylan Lamb allegedly paid Marie Tillman, 43, to perform sexual services after contacting the woman through an escort website, an arrest affidavit from the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office alleged. Lamb told deputies that Tillman attempted to leave after he gave her $200 in his hotel room at the Amoray Dive Resort in Key Largo, Florida.

Lamb said that he used his body to block the door, but Tillman “began striking him.” The man admitted to deputies that he “struck her once in the face” before Tillman fell to the floor and became unconscious. He went to the bathroom to “calm down” and saw Tillman not breathing and without a pulse.

The man, who works as a kayak tour guide, told authorities he panicked and used towels and linens to clean the room, adding that he hid Tillman’s body “inside the closet underneath the water heater.”

The housekeepers didn’t notify police after finding the bags, and put them into the dumpster, which was emptied by the time police arrived.

According to the Miami Herald, a separate guest stayed in the room with Tillman’s dead body in the closet, but didn’t notice it.

Online records show that Lamb was charged with homicide, kidnap-false imprisonment, evidence-destroying and procure for prostitute.

Monroe County Sheriff Rick Ramsay said no other individuals appear to be involved.

“I want to thank the men and women of the Sheriff’s Office for working around the clock to make an arrest in this case,” Ramsay said. “While the investigation remains ongoing, there do not appear to be any other individuals involved in this incident.”

Lamb’s arraignment is scheduled for April 13. Tillman leaves behind several children, who she posted about frequently on Facebook.
