It apparently is not a high amp flow as the fuse does not burn out but we are talking a 20A fuse. Knowing the amp flow may help in the search.
I was curious if he could test from the circuit to see where it was getting a constant feed from while his jeep was off. This is why I like line and high voltage, never learned to much about car electronics

Check the alarm module, do you have a tow package. Heck I'm posting everything I come across. Just to be certain, tonight leave the cd out.

Disconnect the alarm module if you can and I read something about a module or control for towing that can go faulty. Anything I see im posting so maybe someone can think of something. As I read, many grand Cherokees have a battery drain issue due to either the radio or alarm
