The March 18th, 1998 episode (taped February 13th, 1998)[1] of the game show Wheel of Fortune appeared to the viewer as an average episode. However, the episode features a wanted child molester named Matthew Fenwick. (who won $4,400 on the show) At the time the episode aired, Matthew Fenwick was on the run after being accused of molesting two underage girls, ages 8 & 10. A warrant had been issued for Matthew in November, but police couldn't track him down until one of the girls saw him on the game show. Matthew Fenwick was arrested two days after his appearance on Wheel of Fortune and pled guilty in July 1998 to two counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child.[2]
