Episode description

In the 1970s, nuclear power was all the rage. But lax regulations and unfamiliarity with the new technology caused a lot of problems. In Oklahoma, just over the Texas border, a Longview native was determined to keep an eye on unscrupulous plant managers. Karen Silkwood lost her life as she was attempting to expose wrongdoing and safety hazards. Was she murdered to keep her quiet or was it simply an accident that took her life? Follow me into Nowhere as we try to find out who killed Karen Silkwood.
