A feud which culminated in the elderly husband of a council leader beating up his neighbour in front of his young daughter started when the pensioner was asked to stop pestering his wife.
Lisa Miller, 40, who lives with her husband Shaun, 38, and three children in the leafy village of Easington, North Yorkshire, said the family have been through "two years of hell" since the dispute started with neighbour Richard Lanigan, 74, over a boundary row.
Footage shown as evidence at Teesside Magistrate's Court last year captured the moment Lanigan - who's married to Redcar and Cleveland District Council Mary Lanigan - attacked Shaun.
