Wilson, dubbed the ‘Deadpool Killer’ for sharing a name with the Marvel character, was sentenced to death in 2024 after the slayings of Kristine Melton, 35, and Diane Ruiz, 43, in 2019.

He amassed a swooning fanbase of women, with some even writing letters to the judge in his case, pleading for his freedom.

Following his death sentencing, State Attorney Amira Fox slammed such supporters of Wilson, declaring him to be ‘the most poor representation of a man there could ever be.’

Now, shocking images show the ‘Deadpool Killer’ looking far from the suits and slicked-back hair he was seen with in his trial.

Wilson was sentenced to death after being found guilty of two counts of first-degree murder, in addition to grand theft of a motor vehicle, battery, burglary of a dwelling, and first-degree petit theft by the same jury, per TooFab.

According to the prosecution, Wilson’s crime spree began in October 2019 when he murdered Melton in her home after the two had apparently taken drugs and had s** together.

He is then alleged to have stolen her car and used her cell phone to contact another woman, Melissa Montanez, 41, who was reportedly his girlfriend.

After meeting up with her, Wilson allegedly assaulted Montanez and fled in Melton’s vehicle.

He is said to have encountered Ruiz in Cape Coral when asking for directions. Wilson murdered her by strangulation and repeatedly ran her over with Melton’s car ‘until she looked like spaghetti,’ according to testimony from Wilson’s father.
Gardiner told the jury that Wilson went into a restaurant covered in blood after murdering Ruiz.

He is said to have told the owner, described as an acquaintance, that he had killed two women. The prosecution noted that Wilson fled when the owner called 911 and then argued that he broke into the home of a couple who were out of town, completing his horrific crime spree.

During the trial, Wilson reportedly attempted to cover up many of his face tattoos, including swastikas and skeletal markings around his mouth.

Now, jailhouse photos released to blogger Melissa Jade under a Freedom of Information request show the ‘Deadpool Killer’s’ appearance has drastically changed.

Wilson’s Lee County jail-approved tablet snaps a photo every time it is accessed to ensure it is only used by the inmate it was approved for.

Pictures, which were reportedly taken between 2023 and late 2024, show him with cracked and missing teeth and a jaw seemingly out of alignment. He also appears to have gained weight.

According to the Daily Mail, Wilson is currently being held in ‘displinary confinement’ inside the Union Correctional Institution following his transfer from Lee County.

It’s believed he’s received at least 10 violations behind bars.

Wilson’s current disciplinary confinement means he is not eligible for regular guests or visitation rights.
