Doorbell camera footage showed McDaniel walking onto the home's front lawn, where she knelt next to a sign calling for her husband's recall and snapped a photo of it.

She then looked at the house before standing up and walking onto the front porch. McDaniel opened the door, stepped across the threshold of the front door and into the home. The clip includes audio, but no knock is heard.

McDaniel claimed that she went into the home to get contact information for the contractors working on the property.

As a part of her guilty plea, McDaniel was ordered not to contact the victim and to see a mental health professional.
