A burglar who brutally murdered a grandmother in her own home while her horrified daughter witnessed the break-in on Ring doorbell footage has been jailed for life.
Natasha Flynn Farrell, 38, watched on in fear as the doorbell camera captured the moment Dean Mears, 34, forced his way into 69-year-old Catherine Flynn's seaside home.
Harrowing audio captured on a Ring doorbell revealed the moment the scaffolder who was 'high on drugs' dragged Ms Flynn, who had mobility issues and used a Zimmer frame, out of bed and repeatedly stamped on her face and neck at least 15 times.
Ms Farrell, who received a notification from the doorbell camera at 10:27pm, was left helpless as she heard her terrified mother begging: 'Please don't!'
The distressing footage showed Mears shouting 'Where are the keys?' at Ms Flynn pleaded for her life.
