The production company behind one of the reality shows that featured Ryan Jenkins, now wanted as a suspect in the murder of his wife Jasmine Fiore, says that in the future it intends to be more careful in its screening process.
"51 Minds was not aware of Ryan Jenkins's record when it cast him on Megan Wants a Millionaire. Obviously, if the company had been given a full picture of his background, he would never have been allowed on the show," says the statement.
"The company did have in place what it thought was a thorough vetting process that involved complete background checks by an outside company for all contestants on its shows. Clearly, the process did not work properly in this case. 51 Minds is investigating what went wrong and taking steps to ensure that this sort of lapse never occurs again."
Jenkins, 32, remains at large and is believed to have crossed the border into his native Canada.
Forgive me for not believing them but WTF? I mean come on they are suppose to run background checks on these people so you mean to tell me that his past legal problems of abuse from Canada didn't show up? No, what happened here is that they either 1) Got that information and failed to take it into consideration or act upon it because they wanted "ratings" or 2) The information was on the report BUT someone in the casting process disregarded it. I hear that he's suppose to be on "I Love Money 3" as well. Guess if that's the case they will have to either re-shoot or run a disclaimer when it eventually airs.
