STANDING ROCK LAKOTA NATION, North Dakota -- In her latest podcast, Alleen Brown takes a boat ride out to Dakota Access Pipeline, and describes the leak that no one was supposed to know about -- except the court accidentally posted it online.

Alleen talks with Doug Crow Ghost, and Avis Red Bear about Dakota Access Pipeline spills, concern over the safety of their drinking water, and the secrecy that brought a jury award of more than $660 million to the pipeline, in the case of Energy Transfer v Greenpeace.

If you look at all the sealed documents online in the case, you'll see that the North Dakota District Court in Morton County, and North Dakota Supreme Court, really didn't want the truth to get out.
