    A Dunedin woman has been sentenced on charges including threatening to kill her former partner by driving through his house

    A Dunedin woman has been sentenced on charges including threatening to kill her former partner by driving through his house


    The Otago Daily Times reports Amelia Seales appeared in the Dunedin District Court yesterday.

    She'd earlier admitted threatening to kill, threatening behaviour and assaulting two detectives.

    Last year, Seales made headlines after she held the Exotic Pet Expo in the Forrester Park Hall.

    The SPCA investigated complaints about the animals' treatment, which Seales disputed saying she was the subject of an online smear campaign.
