Vh1 has yet to release another statement whether or not if Megan Wants a Millionaire is to remain on air. The show, originally postponed after Vh1 learned that contestant taking part in the show was wanted for murder. Associated Press now reports the search is over as Ryan Jenkins is found dead in a British Columbia hotel motel room.

A reality show contestant wanted for murder in the gruesome death and mutilation of his ex-wife was found dead of an apparent suicide after hanging himself in a secluded motel, authorities said.

 

Jenkins disappeared last week and his boat was found Wednesday at a marina not far from the U.S.-Canada border south of Vancouver.

After the U.S. Justice Department issued an extradition request, Canada issued a nationwide warrant for Jenkins' arrest. Canadian authorities initially launched a massive border search using helicopters, ground police and dogs.
