A Kentucky mother charged with murdering her two young sons, ages 6 and 9, by shooting them in the head at their home in November 2023 will argue at trial that she was legally insane at the time. Tiffanie Ann Katherine Lucas has been in custody in Bullitt County since November 8, when she was arrested and charged with the murders of her sons, Maurice “Peanut” Baker Jr. and Jayden Howard, at their Shepherdsville residence. On the day of the incident, Lucas is accused of firing four shots within 30 seconds before claiming that "it was an accident." She allegedly told authorities that she was "being manipulated through Facebook, through the internet or through Wi-Fi" into committing the act, raising ongoing questions about her mental state. According to Kentucky law, if a defendant intends to pursue an insanity defense, they must file a written notice at least 90 days before the trial. Prosecutors are then granted reasonable time to arrange for a psychological examination. Lucas's defense team has formally notified the court of their intention to use this defense while not challenging her competency to stand trial. The defense acknowledges that Lucas committed the shootings but contends that she is not criminally culpable because she was not legally sane at the time. Family members of the victims, however, dispute this claim. Michelle Rice, Baker's stepmother, told a local ABC affiliate that there is "no way the shooting was an accident" and that "it's not mental illness" to blame. She asserted that Lucas "knew what she did" and understood it was wrong. The case is scheduled for trial in December, eight days before Christmas. It remains unclear how the insanity defense might affect the potential for a plea deal. The Bullitt County Sheriff's Office reported that a neighboring couple found Lucas lying in their driveway on the morning of the incident. The man called 911 after discovering the tragic scene inside Lucas's home. Lucas had allegedly told the neighbors that her "kids were dying." Days after the incident, a detective testified that during questioning, Lucas remarked, "I'm in such a bad spot," claimed the shooting was an accident, said "I'm so stupid," and stated she "would never do anything like this unless someone manipulated me." The killings have left the community and the victims' family seeking answers. Bullitt County Sheriff's Office Chief Deputy Col. Alex Payne noted that Maurice and Jayden had different fathers, and it was later reported that Jayden's father died in 2019. Concerns about Lucas's ability to parent had been raised prior to the incident. JoDee Estes, a family friend, said, "I feel like our system failed them." She emphasized the importance of authorities listening when family members express concerns, adding, "The family is going to blame themselves for the rest of their lives for this, and they should not have to." Estes referred to reports that family members, including the victims' older brother, Durrell Howard, had contacted Child Protective Services about Lucas in recent years. A heartbroken Howard said, "I should have done more. If it came to me snatching the boys out of the house, I should have, and I will hold that on my back for the rest of my life. For both them boys."

On this week's program, we're talking Regional Climate Action Planning with Sumedha Rao and Gianna Bennett from the Metro Louisville Mayor's Office of Sustainability (http://louisvilleky.gov/sustainability). The Office of Sustainability is currently conducting a Regional Climate Action Plan Survey to collect information on residents' climate and sustainability priorities. This work is funded by an EPA Climate Pollution Reduction Grant, and residents within our Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) can participate in the survey. That includes the following 11 counties: In Kentucky: Louisville/Jefferson County, Bullitt County, Oldham County, Shelby County, Spencer County, Henry County, and Trimble County; In Indiana: Clark County, Floyd County, Harrison County, and Washington County. Responses before January 31 are eligible to enter a raffle and win some sustainable swag! Take the survey now at https://louisville.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_dmYa3jp8EKAZU3A This work is funded by a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Climate Pollution Reduction Grant and will be used by the Office to update and improve Louisville's climate action plans. Louisville Metro Government has received a grant from the EPA to create an updated Climate Action Plan for the region. This work builds on past and ongoing community-engaged efforts, including the Louisville Metro Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction Plan and similar plans from other regions. It is also in support of the priorities outlined in A Path Forward for Louisville (https://apathforward4lou.org/). This Climate Action Plan aims to reduce emissions and position this region for larger EPA grants. The goals are to: 1. Implement actions to reduce major greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and beyond; 2. Pursue actions to achieve community benefits in low-income areas and areas that experience most environmental harms; 3. Pursue effective policies and programs that can be “scaled up” across other areas and initiatives. This 5-10 minute survey will tell us what work we should prioritize. As always, our feature is followed by your community action calendar for the week, so get your calendars out and get ready to take action for sustainability NOW!

On this week's Truth to Power, we bring you highlights from the "Save Bernheim Now!" (http://savebernheimnow.org) event held on December 4, 2022 at All People's Church in Louisville and featuring an inspiring array of speakers organizing to protect Bernheim Arboretum & Research Forest from a dangerous and unnecessary high-pressure natural gas pipeline being proposed by LG&E. We'll hear from: - Bernheim's Executive Director, Mark Wourms; - Bernheim's Director of Conservation, Andrew Berry; - Rev. Elisa Owen, Executive Director of Kentucky Interfaith Power & Light (KIPL) and Highland Presbyterian Church; - Rob Kingsolver, retired Environmental Studies professor at Bellarmine University; - Kenyetta Johnson from the Kentucky Student Environmental Coalition (KSEC); and - Rev. Bruce Beisner of All Peoples Church. LGE-KU is taking Bernheim Arboretum and Research Forest to court to condemn their property to construct a high-pressure natural gas transmission pipeline. The court date is January 10, 2023, and Bernheim is using its scarce resources to fight this aggression. It is time for those of us who love Bernheim and oppose new, destructive fossil fuel initiatives to fight this battle personally. Here are just a few of the reasons why LG&E should be denied the condemnation by eminent domain: - It violates Bernheim's Conservation Easement. If LG&E wins in court, this will set a terrible precedent for all natural lands with conservation easements. - There will be serious environmental damage from the construction and maintenance of this pipeline. Its route disrupts significant and fragile habitat and interrupts a wildlife corridor connecting several natural areas. - This area is demonstrably unstable and running a pipeline through it risks landslides and flooding. There is a high likelihood of pollutants entering streams and underground waterways. - The land includes bat habitat. Bernheim recently documented 13 bat species utilizing a wide swath of Bernheim for roosting and foraging. - The land is home to a couple of rare and endangered snails, creatures that have lived in this area for millions of years. - Spending vast sums of money to INCREASE carbon emissions is blatantly financially motivated with no regard for the consequences. On Truth to Power each week, we gather people from around the community to discuss the state of the world, the nation, the state, and the city! It's a community conversation like you won't hear anywhere else! Truth to Power airs every Friday at 9pm, Saturday at 11am, and Sunday at 4pm on Louisville's grassroots, community radio station, Forward Radio 106.5fm WFMP and live streams at http://forwardradio.org

Tyler Lance Walker Gill is a country singer/songwriter from Bullitt County, Kentucky. He is a self-described "honky tonk evangelist, spreading the gospel of country music to any barroom that'll have him". TLWG spent much of his formative years at a country music jamboree in Mt. Washington, Kentucky where his mother would often sing. This experience, unknowingly to him, embedded country roots deep in his soul to later resurface in the TLWG sound we hear today. TLWG cut his teeth playing covers before venturing into writing original music and putting together some of the best local talent, including Bonnie "Prince" Billy, Michael Cleveland, Aaron Biebelhauser, Todd Hildreth, John Clay, and members of Nellie Pearl, for his first studio album. TLWG is currently in the studio hammering out new material that will be sure to provide us with more of his signature earworm hooks.

This week on Sustainability Now!, your host, Justin Mog, speaks some truth to POWER with three guests from PPL Shareholders for Energy Democracy. Wallace McMullen, Deborah Novgarodoff, and Kimberly Brown are all part of a group of concerned citizens and shareholders believes: - LG&E/KU should financially support the community, especially those struggling financially. - LG&E should fund community development in Louisville’s West end, and - LG&E should provide vigorous residential efficiency programs which target low-income and minority residents. - LG&E/KU should not ask for punishing rate increases on residential and small business customers. - LG&E should stop asking for mandatory connection fees that are ridiculously high. $1.30 per day (for gas and electricity) is about 4 times too high.* This charge should only cover the cost of sending the monthly bills. Similar argument for KU wanting $18.50/month for just the mandatory electric connection. *[They got $1.10 per day in the rate case settlement] - LG&E/KU should stop trying for really high profits that exploit its customers, i.e., an unusually high guaranteed ‘rate of return’ on it’s operations. (10.0%). The company should financially support the customers’ communities, and price its services accordingly. - LG&E should stop trying to charge us for ‘smart meters’, both gas and electric. We customers don’t need and don’t want that $400 million charge for new meters, especially given that the existing meters are expected to work well for another 10 years. - LG&E/KU should accept Net Metering as it currently operates in Kentucky, and stop trying to devalue it. - LG&E/KU should stop spending big dollars lobbying for policies that hurt its customers, e.g., the SB100 attack on net metering. - LG&E should end its Bernheim/Jim Beam pipeline proposal in Bullitt County. Instead, Jim Beam should electrify and operate with large solar installations. At the least, pipeline should be rerouted to a mutually agree route that lets landowners keep their generational farms, allows the proposed large-scale solar installation, keeps the environmental covenant on the Bernheim Forest land, and does not go through the Bernheim Forest. - LG&E should stop dominating GLI to it’s own benefit. - LG&E’s Solar$hare is a rip-off Together they will be raising some pointed questions at the holding company, PPL’s annual shareholder meeting on Tuesday, May 18th!

***DISCLAIMER*** *Due to the live nature of our Hometown Rising music festival coverage, & external circumstances beyond our control, the audio production in the following MoxieTalk is unable to be brought to our normal MoxieTalk listening and viewing standards. We apologize for any inconvenience.* “At an after-party one night we watched a video of The Band’s “The Last Waltz” over a bottle of Knob Creek. It sounded like the dirt I grew up from. That moment musically changed my life.” ~ Brent Rupard of Everette Like the great American bands that came before them – new Broken Bow Records duo Everette doesn’t follow trends. Instead, the guys of Everette write what they live, weaving gritty tales of struggle and heartbreak alongside fun-loving stories of escapism and mischief. Often their songs are written while touring – sometimes during sleepless nights as an odometer tracks the miles or on a day off in a dingy motel room off the beaten path – but always organically and always from the heart. Hailing from humble beginnings, Brent Rupard and Anthony Olympia unknowingly went to high school a mere eight miles apart in rural Bullitt County, Kentucky. Brent spent much of his youth on his family’s horse farm and even dabbled in barrel racing. Anthony’s grandpa was a hall of fame quarter horse trainer and, although their families were friends, the two musicians wouldn’t meet until the age of 21 when Brent took a guitar lesson from the classically-trained Anthony. Their friendship and musical chemistry were immediate and the pair soon moved to Bowling Green, KY, where the duo cut its teeth playing originals and covers four nights each week while finishing their degrees at Western Kentucky University. It was the burgeoning Bowling Green music scene that Brent and Anthony credit for shaping them into the songwriters and artists they are today, particularly at a venue called WHA bah. “Once we started playing music at WHA bah the crowd wasn’t just college kids anymore – it was people of all ages and all walks of life. They taught us how to have a good time and not worry about proving ourselves to anyone. They taught us to be true to ourselves,” says Anthony. The two friends moved to Nashville after graduation to “chase the dream” together. Brent started a solo career. Anthony began working as a musician for hire to pay the bills while still playing in Brent’s band. Throughout this time the roommates continued to write and record demos together until the day the two collaborators decided to form the duo Everette during a writing session – and an American band was born. Named for George Clooney’s character in “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” the duo of Everette is a bonafide triple threat. Brent and Anthony co-write almost all of their songs as well as play many of the instruments on Everette’s studio recordings. The two young artists are also co-producing their debut project, an experience Brent calls “spiritual” and one that is critical to the authenticity of Everette’s brand of Country music. “We have a certain type of rhythm and we get into a symbiotic zone together in the studio that makes the song work,” explains Anthony. “We have mutual respect for each other’s talent and each other’s feedback when we disagree. Trying to redo a song in someone else’s studio – it just isn’t the same.” Everette’s brand of country music is filled with swampy harmonicas and bluesy guitar licks mixed with a knack for melodic hooks not unfamiliar to fans of the 80s and 90s. Citing diverse influences ranging from Tom Petty, The Eagles and Randy Travis to Ray Charles, Michael Jackson and John Mayer, Everette’s honest and relatable music exudes a crossover appeal that would have fans singing along at Bonnaroo as well as at CMA Music Fest. Everette’s “Slow Roll” is a rollicking, carefree number inviting the listener to escape from the trappings of city life into an afternoon of leisurely possibility. With a dance-friendly beat and an infectious chorus, “Slow Roll” showcases the duo’s clever songwriting abilities, including a nod to pop culture classic “Dazed and Confused.” Hips will immediately begin swaying to Everette’s intoxicating “Mugshots.” At once dangerous and fun-loving, the duo utilized a steel resonator to add a “Tarantino soundtrack vibe” to the song. That unique element, paired with the song’s arena rock chorus, is sure to make “Mugshots” the universal anthem of wild summer nights. The duo switches gears with the dark and gritty “Relapse” which showcases an intensity and depth to the young artists’ songwriting abilities. Everette credits the “magic” of the heart-wrenching lament to writing it while on the road without time limitations or constraints. Everette often describes its brand as “bonfire music” because of its communal nature, which relates directly to the Country music genre. “It’s the same thing we love about Country music and Country radio,” says Brent. “Just like everyone’s involved at a bonfire jam,” says Anthony. “When we’re on stage we don’t want any separation between us and the audience. We want our shows to be an experience. We write songs about us, but they’re really about everyone.”

Built in 1900, the old Bullitt County courthouse was ground zero for one of the most deadliest train crashes in the history of Kentucky in December 1917. Two trains full of people who had been out Christmas shopping collided approximately 40 feet from the building. While the injured were taken to nearby churches and hospitals the dead were brought to the courthouse. Since the deadly crash 'The Lady in Lace' has been spotted inside the courthouse and people claim to see and hear strange things inside the building. Join us as we take a deep dive into the courthouse and the deadly train wreck. Also don't forget to check out the Louisville Ghost Map app in iTunes and Google Play.

BULLITT COUNTY is a small-scale dramatic thriller set in the late 1970s, where a bachelor party trip to Kentucky Bourbon country could prove lucrative when the quatrtet of friends decide to head off the beaten path to search for a cache of buried treasure on Bullitt family private property. Written, directed and co-starring David McCracken, the film echoes bits and pieces of '70s character-driven thrillers mixed with more modern film-making takes from the likes of Tarantino and the Coen Brothers.

This is the reality for many children on the autism spectrum. At 8:00AM this Friday, an area non-profit organization, Optimal Rhythms, Inc., will be kicking off Make a Difference: Speak Only From Your Heart Day. Respected and influential people in our community are being nominated to give up their speaking voice for 24-hours to bring awareness to the more than 300 non-verbal youth on the autism spectrum in southwestern Indiana.
