After the massive whale was finally trapped last week, it refused to unclench its teeth and let go of Dawn Brancheau, according to the investigative reports released by the Orange County Sheriff's Office. Its jaws were eventually pried open.
"The whale would not let us have her," another trainer, Jodie Ann Tintle, told investigators after the Wednesday attack.
Investigators have said that the 40-year-old trainer died from multiple traumatic injuries and drowning.
In the new investigative reports, Brancheau's co-workers describe the swiftness of the attack and the furious response that came after alarms sounded around the pool. Employees who were at other pools, behind computers or emptying coolers of fish rushed to the scene.
The reports released Monday include the first extensive accounts from employees who witnessed the attacks at the park in Orlando.
