But, just a few months after getting out, he's accused of sexually assaulting his ex-wife. Ex, because she had
00:00:06
obviously moved on while he was in jail and for all the Debbie stuff. And then, less than a year after that, Brittany is
00:00:12
brutally murdered. And he becomes the main suspect. [music] With that past, a shaky alibi, and a
00:00:19
failed polygraph, detectives have enough to get a search warrant for his aunt's place where he'd been living. They're
00:00:26
looking for anything to physically link him to the crime. Bloody clothes, a murder weapon, Brittany's missing
00:00:33
[music] underwear. Yeah. And they do find and take some interesting items into evidence. Like a pair of white
00:00:40
shorts with what appears to be drops of blood on them. And a white t-shirt that also appears to
00:00:46
have blood on it. >> [music] >> A gray ski mask. And women's underwear. Two pairs. One is pink, size seven.
00:00:56
>> [music] >> The other is white, size five. Now, there's no blood on either pair or
00:01:01
anything like that. And we know [music] Chad is dating Velveteen, right? Like, could be hers. So, they go to Jeff's mom
00:01:08
and she says the pink ones, the size seven ones, those are Velva. She knows that. But, the size five, no one in that
00:01:15
house seems to claim those. >> [music] >> So, then they go to Brittany's mom. And
00:01:19
sure enough, she tells them that the size five is the exact size that [music] Brittany wore. So, they've got Chad.
00:01:26
Not quite. This search didn't happen until more than two weeks after the murder. And
00:01:31
according to law enforcement, it seemed like the underwear had been washed by the time that investigators got a hold
00:01:37
of them. So, even though they do send them off for testing, nothing comes back that would definitively [music] link
00:01:43
Brittany to the underwear.
