In a shocking turn of events, Wade Wilson, who has been dubbed the "Deathpool killer" due to his gruesome actions, was recommended for capital punishment by a jury after being found guilty of murdering two women on the same day. As he heard the jury's decision, Wilson displayed no emotion except for some strange hand gestures and a smirk. The media quickly picked up on his mysterious signals and his face tattoos, which went viral, making him somewhat of a celebrity and attracting some female fans.
The 30-year-old, who shares the same name as the popular Marvel character, was convicted of brutally killing 35-year-old Kristine Melton and 43-year-old Diane Ruiz within hours of each other in October 2019. Melton and Ruiz were both strangled as part of Wilson's cross-county crime spree, which also included charges of grand theft, battery, burglary, and petit theft.
During the trial, the jury deliberated for an hour and a half before recommending the death penalty for both murders. Nine of the 12 jurors recommended capital punishment for Melton's murder, while ten of them did so for Ruiz's murder. The news of Wilson's conviction and the recommended punishment spread quickly on social media, with hashtags such as #wadewilson and #truecrimecommunity trending.
According to reports, Wilson met Melton at a bar with live music in Cape Coral, Florida, on October 6 and went home with her. The next day, he strangled her to death, and her body was later found in her residence. Just a few hours later, Ruiz, a bartender and mother-of-two, was reported missing after being seen talking to Wilson, who had asked her for directions. Wilson lured Ruiz into a stolen car from Melton's home and later strangled her to death, then ran over her at least 20 times when she tried to escape.
During the trial, Wilson's father, Steven Testasecca, testified that his son had bragged about the murders with excitement. Testasecca stated that Wilson had said he pulled Ruiz out of the car and ran her over until she looked like "spaghetti." Prosecutor Sara Miller described Wilson's actions as "shockingly evil and vile" and revealed that he had meticulously planned the double murders.
In the penalty phase of the trial, Miller argued that Wilson had shown utter indifference and inflicted immense pain on both victims, making the murders heinous, atrocious, and cruel. Last Tuesday, ten of the 12 jurors recommended the death penalty for Ruiz's murder, while nine did so for Melton's. The final decision on whether to impose the death penalty on Wilson will be made by Judge Nicholas Thompson during his sentencing on July 23. The community and the victims' families are eagerly awaiting justice for the horrific crimes committed by Wade Wilson.
