Macclenny Mother of Two Found Murdered at Jacksonville Fish Camp

JACKSONVILLE, FL — Jacksonville police are investigating the murder of a young mother from MacClenny.

Trudy Sarman, 26, was found at the Palms Fish Camp off Heckscher drive Thursday afternoon.

Police say a construction crew, working on a restaurant at the site, stumbled upon her body.

Police are not releasing details about the death of the young mother of two. Friday morning, a number of small yellow signs, marked spots where police have found evidence. The markers lined the grassy area where Sarman was found.

“It’s a shame. It’s an area where everyone comes, puts boats out and come here and see someone got murdered out here,” says Fred Anson.

Anson is a boater who says he takes his family out here all the time. He says during the day the fish camp is always busy. “It’s a great group of people that come out here to fish.” Anson says at night, he’s noticed it gets very dark in the camp because there are no lights.

“It’s a shame that everything’s coming to this in Jacksonville. It’s getting terrible,” says Anson.

Sarman’s family did come out to the crime scene Friday morning, but did not want to talk or be identified.
