Speaking to the media for the first time, the 29-year-old reveals shocking, never-before-heard details about his sister’s mysterious, still unsolved, murder. Subsequent episodes will air on September 13 and September 19. John later found his daughter’s body hours after police completed a search of the home. John and Patsy were the primary suspects in the case for more than a decade until police cleared them of any wrongdoing in 2008. JonBenet’s brother was also thought to be a suspect since he was inside the home at the time of her disappearance, but his parents stood by their story that he was sleeping the entire time.
