🚨💔 **THE “DEADPOOL KILLER” GOT 4,000 LOVE LETTERS — TWO WOMEN NEVER GOT TO GO HOME**
Wade Wilson shares a name with a Marvel antihero.
That is not why two families will never be the same.
On October 7, 2019, Kristine Melton, 35, was killed in her Fort Myers home. Hours later, Diane Ruiz, 43, was walking to work. She never made it.
A jury convicted Wilson of both first-degree murders in June 2024. In August, a Florida judge handed him two death sentences. He sits on death row at Union Correctional Institution.
Then the mail started.
Thousands of letters. Women writing to a man convicted of killing two people in a single day. The reason, over and over: his looks.
Four thousand love letters. For a man already sentenced to die.
Wilson was born in Florida in 1994 to teenage parents and adopted as an infant. Court records show years of trouble before 2019 — domestic violence arrests, other charges, addiction, instability. People who knew him described a switch that flipped with no warning.
After the verdict, his adoptive parents wrote that they loved the child they raised. They also said that child later became someone they barely recognized.
In 2026 the cameras came back. A Paramount+ documentary. A Netflix episode. The nickname stuck. The letters kept coming.
Kristine Melton and Diane Ruiz do not get letters.
Two women. One day. A face that some strangers decided was enough.
What else was missed in those first hours after Kristine never answered her door?
