your series also examines the death in 1996 of james brown's third wife, adrian brown. she was 45. she was recovering from plastic surgery in beverly hills. investigators found so sign of foul play. why is the question being raised? >> we have new information on the death of adrian brown. this woman who called me, jackie ho hollander was a good friend of adrian brown and she always believed adrian was murdered. in 2017 jackie told me to talk to this detective who looked into the story of adrian's death. i called him up. it turned out he had his suspicions. he's retired but had suspicions. he had this notebook from a long-time informant who had given it to him in 2001. at the time, at the beginning of the notebook it was confusing. he hadn't read the whole thing. i contacted him. he dug it out of a box, read the whole thing and found this astonishing story. the informant wrote in her notebook that a doctor confessed to her that he had sneaked into adrian brown's recovery room in beverly hills and murdered her with a fatal drug overdose. >> oh, my goodness. also, the doctor and cnn i
