The Deadpool Killer: Wade Wilson's Shocking Crime Spree
In October 2019, authorities discovered the lifeless bodies of two women in different parts of Cape Coral, Florida. After police began investigating, they arrested a man named Wade Wilson for the murders. However, Wilson pleaded not guilty to the charges against him. He subsequently went to trial and received a guilty verdict. During the trial, prosecutors attempted to prove how and why Wilson killed those women.
In opening statements at the trial, prosecutors revealed how investigators discovered the bodies of both victims. WBBH News quoted the prosecutor as saying that one of the victims' faces was "black and blue." Meanwhile, investigators discovered the body of the second victim "under some bushes" with multiple rib fractures. Prosecutors also presented evidence and testimony from people who claimed Wilson told them about the murders.
One of the most crucial testimonies in the trial came from Wade Wilson's father, who told the court that his son was "excited" when he talked about the murders. He told the court that Wilson explicitly told him about the murders and wanted his father to feel the same excitement. Although the prosecution presented many witnesses during the trial, they were unable to corroborate Wade Wilson's motive for the murders.
