Dream Home Turns Nightmare Over Bloody Land Dispute in Mexico with Janet Sanders

Have you ever thought about running away to Mexico to live by the ocean and enjoy the sun and surf on an extended siesta from the pressures of work and life in the United States?

This week Burke speaks with Janet Sanders, an American business owner who, with her husband, rented a property in the mesmerizing Yucatan Peninsula only for their lease to end in a bloody attack after being wrapped up in a criminal scheme.

Janet and her husband, Joe, spent years as a pair of ex-pats seeking a laid-back life of luxury at their beachside home in the Yucatan Peninsula. In 2021 they were confronted by their landlord with armed thugs demanding they leave the property after being accused of being squatters.

"I'm not the only one this has happened to," Janet says.
