This week, Brian takes a break from 'true crime' to talk about something else that many Americans find to be criminal: China buying up American land. As he revealed this week, a Chinese company is trying to build a plant in Manteno, Illinois. It's a stone's throw from a nuclear site...and bosses are expected to swear allegiance to the Chinese Communist Party. Locals say the town council snuck the project through - and they want it gone. But the mayor? Unmoved. Brian takes you into smalltown America, where people are worried...and pushing back.
