Charlotte and her husband, Tom, had been too busy to enjoy their backyard hot tub lately. But when their neighbor Lisa complained about loud noise coming from their yard even though they’d been out of town Charlotte became suspicious. To get to the bottom of it, they installed a hidden camera before going away again.
What they saw left them stunned. Footage revealed their next-door neighbors Jim, Lisa, and their kids sneaking into their yard and using the hot tub like it was their own. Drinks, music, snacks… they treated it like a private resort. Furious but clever, Charlotte added harmless green dye to the water and locked the gate.
When the neighbors returned for their unauthorized soak, they emerged with green-tinted skin and no way out. Caught red-handed, they were publicly shamed. But that wasn’t all. An anonymous tip revealed Jim had been renting out his home and using Charlotte’s hot tub as part of the pitch. After gathering evidence, Charlotte reported him to the police.
Jim was arrested for fraud and trespassing and quickly moved away. The ordeal brought Charlotte’s neighborhood closer together, and she and Tom finally reclaimed their peaceful home and their hot tub for good.
