I know I have!  I would estimate about 95% of conflict and parenting challenges in our household stems from sibling conflict. Welcome to Redeeming the Chaos. I'm your host, Laurie Christine. I'm an author, Bible teacher, wife, and mom to four wild, wonderful boys. I would love for you to join me on this adventure of raising courageous warriors for the Kingdom of God.As moms of young men, we know that fighting among boys often gets very physical. While girls may sulk and hold a grudge for weeks on end, boys tend to explode with big emotions and lash out physically at whichever sibling is nearest to them.  (this is a generality. I'm sure you can tell me stories of your girls who have broken out into fist fights as well)So, what causes these fights and quarrels? If you didn't pick up on it, this question is a quote from James chapter 4. I'll read the rest of the passage here:“What is causing the quarrels and fights among you? Don't they come from the evil desires at war within you? 2 You want what you don't have, so you scheme and kill to get it. You are jealous of what others have, but you can't get it, so you fight and wage war to take it away from them.”Does that sound familiar?  Our kids have strong desires. Maybe they want the biggest piece of cake for dessert. Maybe they want the best, squishiest chair for movie night, or the front seat in the minivan. Maybe they want to be treated fairly, maybe they just want to be left alone. (Granted, not all these desires are evil… but often a big desire is the underlying cause of sibling conflict). And look what the verse says… you scheme and kill… you are jealous… you fight and wage war… all this in order to get what you want.  Sound familiar? Now, hopefully the conflict in our homes has not escalated  to the point of killing… however, in the book of Matthew Jesus says “hating” someone is just as bad as “murdering them” in our hearts. So, how do we deal with the conflict that inevitably arises between siblings? How can we teach our kids to show kindness and love to each other, rather than seeking revenge? We have a guest on the show today to help us answer these questions. "B.J.

Killer or Convenient Outsider? The Trial of Karen Read Karen Read, accused of killing her Boston Police officer boyfriend, is eager for the day when she won't have to visit a courtroom or wear a suit. Before she returns to the courtroom next month, a new documentary series is giving her the opportunity to tell the American public her side of what happened the night her boyfriend, Boston police officer John O'Keefe, died in January 2022. The Massachusetts woman is speaking out in an Investigation Discovery (ID) docuseries, A Body in the Snow: The Trial of Karen Read. The series offers a behind-the-scenes look at Read and her legal team as they attempt to prove her innocence in her 2024 trial. It features a lengthy sit-down with Read and other key voices, including those skeptical of her claims. “Doing this film is my testimony,” Read says in A Body in the Snow. “I know the events of that morning, I know what I said and I didn't say, and I haven't been able to say it. It's incredibly frustrating. I want to say what happened exactly as it happened.” A gripping new docuseries, A Body in the Snow, has reignited debate over one of Massachusetts' most controversial murder cases. Released less than a month before her retrial begins in April 2025, the series examines the case against Read, who stands accused of killing Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe. Prosecutors argue Read struck O'Keefe with her SUV and left him to die in the snow, while the defense claims she was framed by law enforcement insiders protecting their own. The Night That Changed Everything The first episode lays out the night of January 28, 2022, when Read and O'Keefe were out drinking before heading to fellow officer Brian Albert's house. Read insists she dropped O'Keefe off but never hit him. “I did not drive my car into John. I didn't reverse it. Did not hit John with my car,” she states unequivocally. When asked if there was any possibility his death was an accident, she doesn't hesitate: “There is zero chance this was an accident. There was zero chance John was hit by a vehicle.” Hours later, O'Keefe's body was found outside Albert's home, covered in snow with skull fractures, bruises, and claw-like marks. The prosecution claimed she ran him over and left, playing a voicemail from that night where an intoxicated Read slurred, “John, I f--king hate you! You're a f--king pervert.” Read faces charges of second-degree murder, vehicular manslaughter, and leaving the scene of a fatal accident. If convicted, she could receive a life sentence, with additional penalties for manslaughter and fleeing the scene. A Chilling Accusation The docuseries also delves into the day after O'Keefe's death, when Read visited his family. She remembers a moment that changed everything. John's brother, Paul O'Keefe, described John's injuries to her: “My brother looked like he went five rounds with Tyson.” Then, John's mother, Peggy O'Keefe, leaned over the kitchen island and coldly stated, “I think he looks like he got hit by a car. He looks like he got hit by a car.” That moment set off alarm bells. Read's brother, Nathan, who was also present, noticed a shift. “After a couple of minutes, Paul's cell phone rang, and he left the room. The way he looked at Karen when he came back in that room, it was like time stopped,” Nathan recalls. “Oxygen left the room at that point, and there were some serious looks of guilt thrown at Karen and subsequently at my father and I.” Read immediately realized she wasn't welcome. “I could read the room, and I was not wanted there. I looked at my dad and said, ‘I gotta get out of here. They think I did this.'” The Cover-Up Theory Read's legal team alleges that O'Keefe was beaten inside the house and later dumped outside. They point to a deleted Google search from within Albert's home that read, “Ho[w] long to die in cold?” three hours before O'Keefe was found. “There is no doubt that someone at 34 Fairview Road knows exactly what happened to John O'Keefe,” said Read's attorney, David Yannetti. “But instead of investigating, they went straight for the easiest scapegoat—Karen.” Then there were the text messages from lead investigator Michael Proctor, who referred to Read as a “wack job,” said he wished she would kill herself, and joked about searching her phone for nude photos. He was later suspended, but the damage was done. A Trial That Became a Media Frenzy Director Terry Dunn Meurer, who embedded with Read's defense team for 11 weeks, told Fox News Digital that one moment stood out to her during filming. “Karen was looking at her computer,” Meurer recalled. “She's looking at the video of the last evening before John O'Keefe died. She goes, ‘Oh, poor John. He's not with us anymore. I used to feel sad when I would look at this. But now … I've got to save myself.'” Meurer insisted that Read and her legal team had no control over the final product of the series. While the series includes interviews with some of O'Keefe's friends, his family and the prosecution declined to participate. The Mistrial and What's Next After nine weeks of testimony, the jury deadlocked, leading to a mistrial in July 2024. Read's retrial is set to begin on April 1, 2025. Meanwhile, Paul O'Keefe has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against her, which has been delayed until after the retrial. In an October 2024 Vanity Fair interview, Read addressed the accusations from O'Keefe's family: “Paul and Peg, if you think I killed John, that means you misjudged me for two years and entrusted two young family members in my care. Then in the blink of an eye, you now think I'm a cold-blooded killer who took away your son?” Meurer remains doubtful that the full truth will ever come out. “We have bits and pieces and varying stories and versions of stories that have emerged,” she said. “Alcohol played a huge role that night—Karen, John, the witnesses—everyone.” Read, who never testified in her first trial, uses the series as a way to speak publicly for the first time. “I just want to go away and be alone, I don't want any more court clothes or any more experts,” she says at the beginning of the final episode. “I just want to be done.” Where to Watch Episodes 1 and 2 of A Body in the Snow: The Karen Read Trial are currently streaming on MAX. Episodes 3 and 4 premiered on Investigation Discovery and MAX on Tuesday, March 18-last night. With Read's retrial looming, the docuseries shines a new light on a case that has divided opinions across the country. Whether she's a murderer or a scapegoat remains the question that will soon be answered. #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrime #Corruption Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In an October 2024 Vanity Fair interview, Read addressed the accusations from O'Keefe's family: “Paul and Peg, if you think I killed John, that means you misjudged me for two years and entrusted two young family members in my care. Then in the blink of an eye, you now think I'm a cold-blooded killer who took away your son?” Meurer remains doubtful that the full truth will ever come out. “We have bits and pieces and varying stories and versions of stories that have emerged,” she said. “Alcohol played a huge role that night—Karen, John, the witnesses—everyone.” Read, who never testified in her first trial, uses the series as a way to speak publicly for the first time. “I just want to go away and be alone, I don't want any more court clothes or any more experts,” she says at the beginning of the final episode. “I just want to be done.” Where to Watch Episodes 1 and 2 of A Body in the Snow: The Karen Read Trial are currently streaming on MAX. Episodes 3 and 4 premiered on Investigation Discovery and MAX on Tuesday, March 18-last night. With Read's retrial looming, the docuseries shines a new light on a case that has divided opinions across the country. Whether she's a murderer or a scapegoat remains the question that will soon be answered. #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #TrueCrime #Corruption Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Linken-Fraktionschef Sören Pellmann hält den bisherigen Etat für die Bundeswehr für ausreichend. Die Partei nimmt zudem die Idee einer Grundgesetz-Änderung durch den alten Bundestag unter die Lupe: „Wir prüfen, ob das Verfahren verfassungsgemäß ist.“ Meurer, Friedbert www.deutschlandfunk.de, Interviews

Die westliche Welt steht am Scheideweg zwischen Autokratie und liberaler Demokratie, sagt Populismus-Forscherin Irina von Wiese. Der Aufstieg populistischer Parteien sei eine Reaktion auf die Krise der Demokratien und des westlichen Kapitalismus. Meurer, Friedbert www.deutschlandfunk.de, Interview der Woche

Der Alleingang von Trump im Ukraine-Krieg wird in Europa kritisch beobachtet. Man habe in Deutschland zu lange weggeschaut, kritisiert Norbert Röttgen. "Frieden wird es nur mit einem postimperialistischen Russland geben", sagt der CDU-Politiker. Meurer, Friedbert www.deutschlandfunk.de, Interviews

Der Leiter der Münchner Sicherheitskonferenz, Christoph Heusgen, hofft, dass von der Veranstaltung ein Signal der Stärke Europas ausgeht. Man müsse mehr für die Verteidigung tun.

US-Importzölle auf deutsche Autos sind unter Präsident Trump kaum vermeidbar, glaubt der CDU-Außenpolitiker Hardt. Er sei unsicher, ob man mit der US-Wirtschaft einen Deal hinbekomme. Während Trumps erster Amtszeit sei der EU das allerdings gelungen. Meurer, Friedbert www.deutschlandfunk.de, Interviews

Die Migration der vergangenen Jahre überfordere Behörden, sagt CSU-Innenpolitikerin Andrea Lindholz nach dem Messerangriff von Aschaffenburg. Sie fordert - auch nach der Tat von Magdeburg -, psychisch erkrankte Gewalttäter stärker in den Fokus zu nehmen. Meurer, Friedbert www.deutschlandfunk.de, Interviews

Weil es an digitalen Zugängen in Ämtern mangelte, mussten in der Coronazeit tausende Zettel ausgefüllt werden. Das wäre vermeidbar gewesen, beklagt Ethiker Julian Nida-Rümelin, genauso wie die langen Schulschließungen. Er verweist auf Schweden. Meurer, Friedbert www.deutschlandfunk.de, Interviews

Today's show puts a different spin on our usual subject matter. We're going to discuss something that has millions of followers and has become a world-wide obsession: true crime! Alright, it isn't a cult (technically!), but it's definitely infiltrated our minds and media.   Our guest today is Terry Dunn Meurer, the co-creator and executive producer of Unsolved Mysteries—the OG in crime-related television. Terry's  talks about the evolution of true crime in media, and the massive surge of interest it's seen in recent years.  Fascination with true crime is extremely common and mostly harmless, but today we delve into its dark side. From armchair detectives interfering with police investigations, to the glorification of serial killers, this episode might make you wonder if maybe there is something culty here, after all… We take a trip down memory lane with Terry, talking true crime and cold cases. Plus, Sarah pitches Terry on covering an unsolved NXIVM mystery.   Also… let it be known that: The views and opinions expressed on A Little Bit Culty do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the podcast.

These violent delights have violent ends. Between 1992 BCE and 1941 BCE, King Montu-Hotep (“Montu is Content”) ruled the southern kingdom.
