The Steve Wilkos Show Season 8 Episode 32 My Granddaughter Says You Molested Her

In this episode of The Steve Wilkos Show, a grandmother appears on the show to confront her daughter's ex-boyfriend, who she claims molested her granddaughter. The grandmother, who raised her granddaughter since she was a baby, says that the alleged molestation happened when the child was 6 years old and that the child is now suffering from the trauma of the incident.

The accused man, who denies the allegations, says that he had a close relationship with the child and that the accusations are the result of a bitter family feud. He claims that the grandmother has been trying to turn the child against him and that he's being falsely accused.

Steve Wilkos interviews both parties and presents evidence including text messages that were exchanged between the grandmother and the accused man shortly after the alleged molestation. The text messages, which were sent by the accused man, seem to corroborate his story that he had a close relationship with the child but did not molest her.

The child's mother, who is the accused man's ex-girlfriend and the daughter of the grandmother, also appears on the show and gives her account of the events. She says that she believes her daughter's account of the molestation and that the accused man has a history of inappropriate behavior with children. The mother and the accused man get into a heated argument over the accusations, which escalates into a physical altercation.

Steve Wilkos intervenes and tries to calm down the situation, but tensions remain high. He then brings on a child psychologist to give insight into the effects of child molestation and to evaluate the child's behavior and statements. The psychologist suggests that the child's behavior is consistent with being molested, but that more investigation and therapy is needed to determine the truth.

At the end of the episode, Steve Wilkos urges the family to seek professional help and to work together to find the truth. The accused man is asked to take a lie detector test to prove his innocence, but the results are not revealed in this episode. The grandmother and the mother leave the show still at odds over the accusations, and the fate of the accused man hangs in the balance.
