Evil Deadpool killer has chilling request as the latest resident on Death Row

A killer sentenced to Death Row for the savage murders of two women made a chilling request in court.

The so-called ‘Deadpool killer’ Wade Wilson was convicted for the brutal killings of Kristine Melton, 35, and Diane Ruiz, 43, in 2019. Prosecutors claimed he committed the murders “for the sake of killing”.

State Attorney Amira Fox stated that in her 34-year career, she had “never seen someone as evil”. And during his sentencing on Tuesday, the court heard Wilson’s eerie demand.

He asked the Florida County Circuit judge to expedite his time on Death Row.

“I understand he has other cases pending here and elsewhere… but Mr Wilson asked me to ask the court within whatever authority you have to get him to death row as soon as possible,” his lawyer said.

Wilson, who shares his name with Marvel’s fictional arms dealer, was found guilty in June of two counts of first-degree murder. The jury voted 9-3 in favour of the death penalty for Kristine’s murder, and 10-2 for Diane’s. According to Florida state law, at least eight jurors need to agree on the death penalty for it to be considered by the judge, reports the Mirror.

Wilson had gone home with Kristine after meeting at a bar on October 6, 2019, before he strangled her at her home in Cape Coral, Flordia. Diane was reported missing the following day after a witness saw Wilson asking her for directions as she walked to work.

The court was told the chilling tale of how he nicked a motor from Kristine’s house, which he was joyriding when Diane hopped in and he brutally strangled her. He didn’t stop there; he mowed her down repeatedly until, as Wilson’s dad testified, she “looked like spaghetti”.

Her remains were discovered dumped behind a Sam’s Club wholesale shop. After the two savage slayings, Wilson kept driving in Kristine’s car to Fort Myers, where he launched an attack on his ex at her job.

The police finally arrested Wilson after the third woman reported the assault, finding him in yet another stolen car. He was finally detained on October 8.

Locked up, Wilson’s face has become a canvas for ink, sporting grim stitches tattooed around his mouth, a swastika, and a neck tat declaring “Bred for war”. His counsel tried to spin it that he on drugs the night before the killings, begging the judge to hand down life without parole instead.

The judge dished out a death sentence this Tuesday. The verdict had the gallery erupting in applause, while Kristine’s kin Samantha pledged to watch at his execution. “This will not be the last that Wade Wilson sees of us in a courtroom,” she spouted at a press briefing.

Diane Ruiz’s dad also vowed to witness the final act, lamenting how “I didn’t get to say I love her” before his daughter was snatched away so brutally.
