VH1 Sucks!


A millionaire reality TV contestant who is on the run from American police has been charged with the gruesome murder of his model ex-wife.
Ryan Jenkins, 32, who starred in the series Megan Wants a Millionaire, about a woman seeking to land a wealthy bachelor, is thought to have fled to his native Canada after the body of Jasmine Fiore was discovered stuffed in a suitcase in a California rubbish bin last weekend.
Ms Fiore, a former swimsuit model, married Mr Jenkins in a “quickie” Las Vegas ceremony this year.
The couple booked into a San Diego hotel last Thursday and Mr Jenkins checked out the next morning. Ms Fiore was not seen again until her body was found without teeth or fingers, presumably to impede any identification.
Her friends and family made a tearful appeal at a press conference for any information leading to Mr Jenkins’s arrest.
“This message goes out to the family, his mother and father and to the friends that are helping him try to leave this country. Ryan Jenkins is an animal, what he has done to Jasmine is unspeakable and it’s just not right and I’d appreciate your help,” said Robert Hasman, a former boyfriend of Ms Fiore.
Mr Jenkins, who is thought to be armed, drove 1,000 miles to Washington State and took a boat to a peninsula on the border, where he walked into Canadian territory. A Canadian police official said that ground, air and dog units are involved in the search for him.
A car and empty boat trailer belonging to Mr Jenkins were found at a marina in the remote northwest Washington town of Blaine.
If Mr Jenkins is arrested in Canada, California can request that he be extradited to the US, but only with reassurances from authorities that he would not face the death penalty.
After filming for Megan Wants a Millionaire finished in early March, Mr Jenkins met Ms Fiore in a Las Vegas casino and the two got married on March 18.
But in May they split because he was jealous of her ex-boyfriends and the model had the marriage annulled.
Mr Jenkins then went to Mexico to do another reality TV show, but struggled to get Ms Fiore back when he returned.
“He convinced her during that month that he was really the guy for her,” said Ms Fiore's mother, Lisa Lepore. “He wrote poems and stories, and prayed, and [claimed he] had this huge spiritual awakening.”
VH1 said that it has postponed any future airings of the programme, and 51 Minds, the show’s production company, said in a statement that Jenkins would never have been accepted for its show if the company had known of his criminal history.
I found this article online because MSN had it as one of their headlining stories. I've never cared much for Megan because she's everything in a woman that I can't stand. I don't mean to be a hater but she's spoiled and has never done an ounce of hard work in her life. Her reality show "Meghan wants a Millionare" implies her gold digging aspirations. However, I don't believe no matter how much I can't stand her, that it was in her best interest on VH1's behalf to cast a contestant with a criminal background. This is just another instance where one human beings life is a joke and a paycheck for VH1. Had they cared about her well being they would have been more thorough with conducting background checks and investigations before having him stay in a house full of other people. What a PR nightmare for VH1! Hopefully they'll take this as a lesson learned and be more careful when casting people instead of just letting anyone get on TV for shock value. The trash you see on TV is sending millions of morally wrong messages to society and although we as Americans have the freedom to choose what we watch, it still doesn't make airing trash like that right! I don't believe this man has a model wife and the reason he killed her was because his jealously tainted his heart and mind. I'm sorry jealousy can trigger it but killing someone in the manner he did is premeditated and in my honest opinion he's probably always been a psycho. He probably tortured animals as a child for all we know. People with no regard for another beings life (whether human or any other species) has no regards for his own and therefore shouldn't be allowed to walk the streets. Congratulations to the Scum of the earth, for you truly cover more land than water.
