        Found the Justice Department press release about this one: https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/two-arrested-operating-illegal-overseas-police-station-chinese-government

        Funny how they say "operating a police station" so many times without actually stating what that entails.

      Yeah, I think it was last year, but my friend keeps bringing it up and I can't find anything about what the alleged "secret police stations" did except maybe tell people who had criminal charges pending in China that they had criminal charges pending in China.
