The March 18, 1998 episode of the game show Wheel of Fortune appeared to the viewer as an average episode. However the episodes features a man named Matthew Fenwick who was wanted for being accused of molesting two girls at the time the episode aired. A warrant had been issued for Matthew in November, but he wasn’t arrested until one of the girls saw him on the game show. Matthew Fenwick would later be arrested two days after his appearance on Wheel of Fortune and plead guilty in July 1998 to two counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child.[1][2][3]
