00:00Think about that then.
00:03Carry on, sunshine.
00:05She then, I guess, weaponised the cameras and really to consistently get in touch with me.
00:12Don't tell me you didn't see that on your camera.
00:15For example, the ring doorbell, if she activates the button, she knows that that's then being recorded, which will then
00:20go onto my phone.
00:22The camera in the hallways, she would then just stand and leave messages to me four times of the night.
00:31She would reveal herself on the cameras.
00:34It pretty much got out of control at this point and became an obsession.
00:38Dreena used the cameras to harass her neighbour day and night.
00:43But one evening, her anger boiled over.
00:47The point where I thought, you know, I can't take this anymore, was when Dreena walked outside and just picks
00:54up a rock and then hits the doorbell with it.
00:57There you go.
01:06Ben and Emma had good reason to be afraid.
01:30Dreena already had 18 convictions, including glassing a former partner and assaulting a police officer.
01:38But it wasn't just people she was hurting.
01:42I could hear the dog yelping.
01:44I saw her coming back into the property and she started kicking the dog in the head.
01:56I called the RSPCA right away.
01:59The RSPCA sent her a letter saying that we've seen a video of you kicking your dog in the head
02:05in the hallway of your property.
02:07Please, can you not do that?
02:09It was obvious that the only place that could have come from was from the camera that I had put
02:13there.
02:14It was the right move and I stand by what Ben did.
02:16But I never expected her to blurk in the way that she did.
02:20You shouldn't have done that.
02:21It was at that point that things started getting really bad, really nasty and violent.
02:27Put me up, tell me in my face, get rid of my dog.
02:33See what happens.
02:35Don't mess it no more.
02:36The official warning only increased Dreena's rage.
02:47And what started as a nuisance was now far more concerning.
02:53Threats consistently threatened to harm me, to harm Emma.
02:57Watch your ass.
02:59Kill me.
03:00Threats of arson to burn the place down.
03:03She had a partner that was coming around to see her.
03:05Threats that as soon as I go out, that he'd have my legs broken.
03:10And this was like every night now.
03:12What about time you complain about, man?
03:14What's wrong with that?
03:15I started having panic attacks.
03:17You wake up thinking, what's going to happen today?
03:20Is she going to steal anything?
03:21Is she going to break anything?
03:23Will we sleep tonight?
03:24Will we sleep tomorrow?
03:25Be careful, okay?
03:28Be careful!
03:29There was one time where she said that her ex-partner was going to come here with a gun.
03:33I got a baseball bat and, you know, had that next to the front door.
03:38So if anyone were to come around, at least, you know, had something that we could defend ourselves with.
03:43It's going to kill you.
03:44Yeah, if you want to kill that, you'll...
03:48Ben and Emma went on holiday, hoping to escape.
03:53Ah, don't tell the police I'm harassing you.
03:55But via doorbell camera, the abuse went on.
04:01And on.
04:05The couple made repeated police complaints.
04:10Until finally...
04:16I'll never forget it.
04:17They come in and completely take the door out.
04:21And then a whole bunch of police officers go in there.
04:24And they take her out.
04:26I knew that time was like, this is it.
04:29You know, she's gone.
04:30So now you're a gun and you just got to the club.
04:30You just got to move on.
04:31So if you let that drop the law.
04:32You know, the sequencing on your ощущrdal guy on, you know, you got to go out of your hands for
04:33you.
04:33So when you keep seeing the liegen on.
04:34You know, the cause of my eyes.
