Miami Beach spring break horror: Woman found dead in hotel room remembered as ‘funny and beautiful’

Loved ones of the 24-year-old Pennsylvania woman who was reportedly drugged and raped and was later found dead in a Miami Beach hotel room are remembering her as an “amazing human being” and a “beautiful girl.”

The Miami-Dade Medical Examiner’s Office is still working to determine Christine Englehardt’s cause of death after the young woman’s semi-nude body was discovered Thursday at the Albion Hotel in South Beach, according to reports. 

Investigators determined she was drugged and sexually assaulted, the Miami Herald and the New York Post reported. The suspects then reportedly stole her credit cards and left less than an hour after arriving.

Evoire Collier, 21, and Dorian Taylor, 24 — both from Greensboro, North Carolina — have been arrested and charged with sexual battery, burglary with battery, petty theft and the fraudulent use of a credit card, the Herald reported. More charges could follow depending on the medical examiner’s determination, officials said.

Collier told investigators that Taylor allegedly gave Englehardt a “green pill,” which he believed was Percocet, according to the Herald.

The GoFundMe describes how Englehardt’s attackers don’t deserve the spotlight, and “stole this woman’s entire future in a very sickening way and put her mother and father in a great deal of heartbreak.”

Miami Beach police have seized more than 100 guns this spring break season, officials say
