- September 18, 2017
The Steve Wilkos Show is an American syndicated talk show that deals with controversial topics and features interviews with guests who come to resolve their personal and family issues. The show has been on air since 2007 and is hosted by Steve Wilkos, a former Chicago police officer and security director on The Jerry Springer Show.
In the first episode of season 11 titled "I Don't Want to Believe He Molested My Child," a distraught mother named Jessica appears on the show to confront her husband, who she believes has molested their 5-year-old daughter. Jessica recounts how she discovered inappropriate messages on her husband's phone and became suspicious of his behavior towards their daughter.
The husband, named Mike, denies all allegations and claims that he is innocent. He argues that the messages on his phone were just harmless jokes and that his wife is overreacting. However, Steve Wilkos takes a closer look at the evidence and brings in an expert to analyze the messages and determine whether they are illegal or not.
Jessica is joined on the show by her family members and friends who provide emotional support and testify to her husband's suspicious behavior. Mike, on the other hand, has no one to support him and appears nervous and defensive throughout the episode.
As the show progresses, Steve Wilkos uncovers more evidence that suggests Mike may indeed be guilty of molesting their daughter. He brings in a child protective services worker who explains the legal definition of child sexual abuse and warns Jessica about the potential danger that her daughter could be in.
In the end, Steve Wilkos helps Jessica come to terms with the fact that her husband may be a danger to their family and encourages her to take further action to protect her daughter. The show ends on a sobering note as Jessica and her family leave the studio to face the harsh reality of their situation.
"I Don't Want to Believe He Molested My Child" is a powerful and emotional episode of The Steve Wilkos Show that confronts a painful and taboo topic head-on. While it may be difficult to watch at times, the show provides important information and resources for viewers who may be struggling with similar issues in their own lives.
