Gabby Petito

How would death by alligator go exactly? Is it like 1 chomp and game over, or?

For an adult to die from an alligator bite, it would actually be pretty gruesome and it would likely involve being torn to pieces. It would have to be a very large gator, though. Alligators are generally afraid of people and will swim away when they see you. If you get in the water with them, you are more likely to be attacked. If I had to guess, he was already dead and animals may have made off with parts of him.

They drown you.

Assuming he did indeed kill Gabby by strangulation, seems like a fitting end for him.

Gators typically kill big game by just biting to hold and then drag it into the water and do barrel rolls while it drowns and/or shreds to pieces. They don’t really try to kill it with their bite, but it’s certainly capable of killing with just a bite depending on where it bites.
