The Steve Wilkos Show Season 14 Episode 15 My Husband went prison But he's Not a Molester

In season 14, episode 15 of The Steve Wilkos Show, titled "My Husband Went to Prison But He's Not a Molester," a woman named Jessica believes her husband was wrongfully accused of molesting a child and wants to clear his name. Steve allows the couple to share their side of the story and presents evidence from the trial that landed the husband in prison.

Jessica explains that her husband, David, was accused of molesting a young girl who frequently came over to their home to play with their children. Jessica and David deny any wrongdoing and claim that the accusations were fabricated by the girl's mother, who had a history of making false claims. Despite their protests, David was arrested and later found guilty in court based on the testimony of the victim and her mother.

Steve presents footage from the trial, including the victim's testimony and cross-examination by both the prosecution and defense. The footage shows the victim consistently maintaining her story and identifying David as the perpetrator, while David's defense attorney attempts to poke holes in her testimony.

After reviewing the evidence, Steve brings out a licensed polygraph examiner to administer a lie detector test to both David and Jessica. David passes the exam with flying colors, indicating that he did not molest the young girl. Jessica also passes the test, demonstrating that she believes her husband's innocence.

With this newfound evidence, Steve decides to bring out the victim's mother to hear her side of the story. The woman vehemently denies fabricating the accusation and insists that David is guilty. When pressed by Steve, she admits that she had previously made false claims against another man for similar reasons, but insists that this time she is telling the truth.

In the end, Steve does not come to a complete resolution on the case, but emphasizes the importance of finding the truth and the potential damaging effects of false accusations. The episode ends with Steve offering support to both the accused and accuser, and encouraging viewers to always seek the truth before passing judgement.
