À propos de ce contenu audio
In 1974, lab technician Karen Silkwood left work carrying something more dangerous than plutonium — evidence.
She had uncovered missing nuclear material, falsified safety records, and contamination inside an Oklahoma plant that powered the Atomic Age. She told friends she was being followed. She arranged to meet a journalist with proof.
On the way to that meeting, her car left the road. Karen Silkwood died. The documents she carried were never found.
What followed was a battle that stretched from accident reconstruction scenes to federal courtrooms — a fight over contamination, corporate negligence, whistleblowing, and whether her death was a tragic crash… or something far darker.
This episode dives into the investigation, the legal war, the theories, the suspects, and the aftermath — from the closing of nuclear plants to the legacy of a woman who refused to look away.
Some stories fade. This one still burns.
