00:00:06
were told that 6-year-old Jojo King was not breathing. But Jojo was wet. I'm not
00:00:12

00:00:23
wet right in the middle. But the one place that the moisture wasn't found was the toy chest where the
00:00:28
stepfather said he had been trapped. And if Jojo really did get trapped in the toy chest for so long that he
00:00:34
