Nottingham Crown Court heard an Fa Cup medal, a £121,000 Engagement Ring and watches were stolen on 1 May 2019.

'Utterly powerless'

" I went through a range of Emotions - predominantly scared, but also concerned for my son, " She Said .

Ms Dixon added: " I was under the sheets and just wearing underwear, I was very vulnerable at The Time .

" I thought they might kill or Rape Me - I was utterly powerless. "

During the raid at the Nottinghamshire home, Ms Dixon said The Men ordered her to place her son in his cot and hold her arms out, and after she refused Three Times , one said: " He won't be safe unless he is in the cot. "

Kurtis Dilks, 34, Ashley Cumberpatch, 36, and Andrew Macdonald , 42, are all accused of conspiring together to rob Ms Dixon.

The Trio are also alleged to have converted criminal property alongside jewellers Sercan Evsin and Tevfik Guccuk on 2 May 2019.

Mr Dilks faces three charges of conspiracy to commit burglary, four charges of converting criminal property, three charges of conspiracy to commit robbery and two counts of robbery.
