Former Radio Show Host Sentenced To Prison

POSTED: Tuesday, February 27, 2007

A former Houston radio talk show host will spend three years in prison after he violated his probation for an indecency with a child conviction, KPRC Local 2 reported.

Jon Matthews pleaded guilty in August 2004 to indecency with a child by exposure after he exposed himself to a neighbor's 11-year-old daughter. He received a seven-year probated sentence.

The Fort Bend County district attorney's office said Matthews violated his probation in several ways -- excessive drinking, not completing a counseling program, using the Internet in a manner inconsistent with conditions of his probation and getting within 1,000 feet of a school.

Matthews did not dispute the claims in court.

Restrictions for Matthews' probation included:

  • registering as a sex offender
  • having no contact with the victim or any other children
  • keeping at least 1,000 feet away from schools, playgrounds and any other place children gather
  • performing 160 hours of community service

Matthews resigned from KSEV AM shortly after his indictment in November 2003.
