Friendly request to lower the music results in a challenging five-month experience with a troublesome neighbor.

A rapper thought he had found suburban paradise when he bought a $1million Florida home – but he had no idea how moving next to the ‘neighbor from hell’ would consume him.

Miguel Mora, 38, who releases music under the name Spottie Wifi, embraced what he thought would be the quiet life in the Tampa neighborhood called New Suburb Beautiful, just three miles from the city’s downtown.

But within months, his peaceful street turned into the scene of an escalating grudge match with neighbors involving more than 100 visits from police.

It all began on Christmas morning at 2.20am, Mora told DailyMail.com. He said he was disturbed by a loud party at which people next door could be heard making loud boasts about a threesome.

He sent a polite text to his neighbor, Ghada Maghrebi, a 47-year-old construction manager, asking her to keep it down. ‘Hi Ghada, would you mind plz taking the party inside or lowering the volume,’ he texted.

Maghrebi responded, profusely apologizing for the disturbance, claiming it was her roommate and saying it would never happen again before wishing him a ‘Merry Christmas’.

But the dispute would only escalate.

What followed was a five-month nightmare that would see more surveillance cameras everywhere, and a feud so intense that Maghrebi ended up losing her job. 

Mora began meticulously documenting every moment with surveillance cameras lining the fence, which he said police encouraged him to install.

‘I installed a 10 foot pole in the southeast corner of my property with a camera and flood lights looking down so that I could see if my fence was being vandalized.’ 

Mora claimed the harassment continued from there.

‘I woke up and found trash dumped in my yard… I looked at my surveillance footage and saw that it was the neighbor that did it,’ he said. 

‘As of today, she stole one of those cameras off my fence,’ he told DailyMail.com

Mora even wrote a song called ‘Ghadzilla (Neighbor From Hell)’ and released a music video about the feud, along with real footage of his neighbor Maghrebi appearing to be passed out drunk in her backyard surrounded by police. 

Maghrebi, however, told the Tampa Bay Times that it was Mora who was ‘obsessed’.

Police began to make regular visits to the neighborhood dispute, responding to noise complaints that seemed to increase weekly. 

‘They have trespassed and vandalized and threatened me and my wife,’ Mora alleged. ‘Her roommates have given me death threats.’

‘I have videos of the police telling her that her volume is too loud, her music is too loud, that she’s in violation. I have multiple videos of that that I’ll send you, and yet she’s never received a citation for that.’ 

Mora provided DailyMail.com with documents from the Tampa Bay police, showing evidence Maghrebi was warned about trespassing and that there is video footage confirming she was ‘reaching over his fence with her cellphone recording him’. 

He claimed he has ‘multiple videos of the police telling her that her volume is too loud, that she’s in violation – and yet she’s never received a citation’.

One night, an officer told Maghrebi her ‘Moscow mule time’ was over after finding her passed out in a chair next to a hookah pipe, according to Mora. 

‘She had a house fire on 420 of last year, and she told the fire department that the fire was caused by her hookah and her electric hot plate as she uses to light the coals for her hookah,’ he claimed.

‘This is the same hookah and the same electric hot plate… in half a dozen videos that I have of her unconscious with fire and rescue coming and having to hop the fence to wake her up.’    

Things took a dramatic turn when Mora posted Maghrebi’s DUI mugshot online and created websites mocking her.

A clip of her appearing visibly drunk in front of her home went viral on Worldstar, a popular hip hop social media page, along with her arrest documents.

The Worldstar Instagram caption read: ‘Florida DOT Construction Manager #GhadaMaghrebi allegedly got so intoxicated that she called the police on herself.’

‘Authorities have reportedly been summoned to her home dozens of times for DUIs, domestic violence, and chaotic disturbances. But the latest incident takes things to another level, Maghrebi was allegedly found passed out drunk in her yard, music blaring, while hosting foreign exchange students.’

Court records reviewed by DailyMail.com confirm that Maghrebi was arrested on February 14, 2025, and charged with DUI with a blood alcohol level over 0.15 while accompanied by a minor.

A two-year-old child was in the vehicle at the time of her arrest, according to the police affidavit.

The majority of the comments on the post defended Maghrebi with many asking: ‘It’s illegal to be drunk at your own house?’

Another came to her defense, asking: ‘How she get a DUI on her own property?’

‘I’m confused how she drunk at home! … Someone educate me,’ another asked.

Others responded with empathy: ‘She’s suffering. Praying for her healing.’

‘So she got arrested for no reason?’ another user chimed in.

After the gossip site picked up the story, Maghrebi’s life was suddenly turned upside down. 

She ultimately lost her job at the Florida Department of Transportation, after Mora hired a publicist to claim she was ‘unfit for public service,’ the Tampa Bay Times reported. 

The FDOT apparently did not provide a specific reason for her termination. 

‘Honestly, at first I just wanted her to stop,’ Mora said about Maghrebi. ‘Now I want her gone.’ 

Maghrebi hit back, filing harassment claims and complaining about Mora’s invasive cameras.

Things escalated when a digital billboard truck driving around town displayed Maghrebi’s mugshot.

‘Things got a lot worse after she got her Valentine’s Day DUI,’ Mora told Dailymail.com.

‘She got a DUI on Valentine’s Day with her toddler in the car.’

In addition to a recent DUI, Maghrebi was arrested and charged for child abuse in 2011, and arrested for child neglect and a series of other traffic violations, according to online records.   

Defending the digital billboard truck that displayed her mugshot, he said: ‘This truck didn’t just coincidentally pull up to her daughter’s preschool. This truck, presumably, was a PSA to let other preschool parents know there’s a drunk driver picking up their toddler at this preschool.’

Mora has also been accused of battery with water sprinkler.  

He claims Maghrebi ‘was climbing my fence and trespassing at the time’ when he sprayed her with the hose.

For Maghrebi, the dispute has led to weirder and weirder interactions. She told the Tampa Bay Times that a real estate agent mysteriously called about selling her home – which she never inquired about. 

Strange texts from unknown numbers had also started to pour in, including aggressive or threatening remarks like: ‘Donate some money to fix your roof you broke b****.’

Her windows began to vibrate with unexplained bass sounds and a device on the fence even released a plume of foul-smelling fog. 

Although she was initially against it, Maghrebi has ultimately ended up listing her $1.19million home.

DailyMail.com has contacted Maghrebi for further comment.
