Jason McDermott

And at that point in time for scene preservation, we told him we couldn't just allow him to go through the residence, that we would retrieve them for him.

And he decided not to wear any socks to the sheriff's office.

Suggesting he doesn't want you looking through his bedroom.

Correct.

Well, that must have made you sit up a little taller.

That's our first red flag.

Jason, my name's Craig Kennedy.

Within an hour, a sockless Jason was sitting face-to-face with Detective Kennedy at the sheriff's office.

And how does he seem in that interview?

In the interview, he was relatively calm.

Jason walked the investigator through the previous 12 hours.

He said he and Morgan had dinner at home.

Then Morgan dropped off her daughter at her mom Cindy's house, where she sometimes slept when Morgan had to get up early for work.

So once she comes back home, what happens?

And I said, hey, all right, I'm going to bed.

She goes, OK, I'll be home soon.

Jason said he went to sleep and was only half conscious when Morgan got out of bed around 1.30 a.m.

I went to sleep.

Jason said he did not hear the gunfire that killed his girlfriend.

Do you sleep with earplugs in, anything like that?
