Javascript issue causing IE to fail

I am getting this error

Invalid character line 6254 character 9

the code there is

return eval("(" + string +开发者_StackOverflow社区 ")")

I did a

console.log(string)

here is the json result

Every other browser it loads fine, just nothing any version of IE

That's not a valid JSON-String (check jsonlint.com) There are unescaped newlines in "sqltotal"
