Megan is Lucky that she didn't get this Millionaire


In true form, VH1 reality shows have continued to push the envelop of "too Hot/much for TV". It looks as if VH1 will have the first reality show in history to feature an alleged (and more than likely guilty) murderer on the show.

Ryan Jenkins, contestant on Megan Wants a Millionaire, has been charged with murdering his ex-wife and former swimsuit model Jasmine Fiore. Originally, Jenkins was considered a "person of interest" in the case. Fiore's body was found Saturday inside of a suitcase that was placed in a dumpster. Reports confirm that her fingers and teeth were removed from the corpse by her attacker/murder.

It appears Fiore received text messages from her ex-boyfriend shortly before her disappearancewhich discussed plans of a rendezvous in Las Vegas. It is believed that Jenkins may have discovered this text and set off a chain of events that ultimate led to the model's demise.

Megan Wants a Millionaire was canceled after it was announced that Jenkins was a fugitive from the law. Jenkins apparently made it as a finalist in the show. VH1, probably for the first time in recent history, demonstrated extreme class with removing the show from the air en light of this tragedy. Typically, contestants of reality TV shows participate in rigorous background checks in order to ensure the safety of fellow cast members. Jenkins has a history of a violent past, however, he either found a way to conceal this information or the screening methods failed to flag his checkered past. VH1 agreed that if Jenkins' violent record was available to the station, he would not have been selected as a cast member in the show.

Jenkins is now a fugitive from the law and considered armed and dangerous. It is believed that Jenkins, a Canadian native, escaped on foot back to his homeland and is currently hiding from the law. Anyone who assists this man in evading police will face charges of aiding a fugitive. Here is his picture. As always, if you come across him first run (please don't attempt to be a superhero idiot and take him down) and then secondly contact your local authorities.
