A family has been torn apart after arguments erupted over their grandfather’s estate – and it resulted in thousands of dollars of damage to the property.
Amy* revealed her sister Jane* was first in line to purchase their late grandfather’s home – but had to give up the property because her husband refused.
When Amy stepped in to take over, Jane ‘had a tantrum’ and destroyed a brand new $2,000 fridge.
Jane dented and scratched the fridge in several places before putting glue and glitter in the ice maker.
The kitchen appliance was just the beginning. Jane also superglued the door handles, showerheads, and sink faucets shut, and she poured glitter down all the drains and scattered it throughout the bathrooms.
‘She [also] destroyed $200 worth of paint all because she got first dibs of our late grandfather’s house and her husband told her no,’ Amy revealed online.
The extensive damage to the property will cost thousands to fix, and the added nuisance of glitter everywhere will make matters worse.
Amy also said she tried to speak to her sister for a month before officially going through with the purchase – but Jane did not respond to any of her calls or messages.

Heated debates about family estates and inheritances have been rife of late, with the trend encouraging many to ‘spend everything they have’ instead.
Hundreds encouraged Amy to press charges against her sister to prevent such behaviour in the future.
‘If you don’t have her arrested and press charges you’re enabling her to continue,’ one said.
‘These aren’t the actions of a sane person. Contact a lawyer and file a restraining order!’ another added.
But a few claimed she needs to put her family first.
‘If it were me, I’d remain her loving sister,’ a woman said. ‘Don’t take any revenge. It is expensive pettiness, but family is more important. Do as you would have others do to you.’
