00:00:18,620 --> 00:00:19,793
- Hey, Kristen.
- Hello.
8
00:00:19,862 --> 00:00:21,413
- Hey, Breezy,
what's up, baby?
9
00:00:21,482 --> 00:00:24,931
- We saw Wade Wilson
go through a series of women
10
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:26,862
who were absolutely
enthralled with him.
11
00:00:26,931 --> 00:00:28,068
- Hello.
- Hey, sexy girl.
12
00:00:28,137 --> 00:00:29,172
How you doing?
13
00:00:29,241 --> 00:00:30,758
- What's up,
you sexy motherfucker?
14
00:00:32,241 --> 00:00:35,896
- It's really hard to
not fall for what he says
15
00:00:35,965 --> 00:00:37,241
and how he makes you feel.
16
00:00:39,896 --> 00:00:41,862
- When it finally got
into the courtroom,
17
00:00:41,931 --> 00:00:43,586
he became ground zero.
18
00:00:43,655 --> 00:00:44,931
- Wade Wilson.
- Wade Wilson?
19
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,034
- He's charismatic.
20
00:00:46,103 --> 00:00:47,344
- I need to know what he did.
21
00:00:47,413 --> 00:00:48,551
- She wants to see the trial.
22
00:00:48,620 --> 00:00:49,862
I would wanna see
the trial too.
23
00:00:49,931 --> 00:00:52,000
- While locked up,
this is when Wade began
24
00:00:52,068 --> 00:00:53,517
getting his face tattooed.
25
00:00:53,586 --> 00:00:55,275
It started with the swastika
on his face and head.
26
00:00:55,344 --> 00:00:57,931
- First thing I did
tell him was, I was Jewish.
27
00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:59,793
Did he have
a problem with that?
28
00:00:59,862 --> 00:01:01,275
- There were jurors
that were terrified
29
00:01:01,344 --> 00:01:04,275
just being in the courtroom
near him
30
00:01:04,343 --> 00:01:05,620
that we had to excuse.
31
00:01:05,689 --> 00:01:07,413
- He wanted a Gucci suit
32
00:01:07,482 --> 00:01:11,000
and he wanted a Gucci shirt
or crocodile shoes.
33
00:01:11,068 --> 00:01:14,482
- What am I gonna do with
dang crocodile shoes for you?
34
00:01:14,551 --> 00:01:18,758
- Kristine Melton,
Diane Ruiz, both of them
35
00:01:18,827 --> 00:01:20,724
had been strangled.
36
00:01:20,793 --> 00:01:25,517
And both of them, the last
person that they encountered
37
00:01:25,586 --> 00:01:27,310
was Mr. Wade Wilson.
38
00:01:27,379 --> 00:01:29,482
- He said, I choked that bitch.
39
00:01:31,068 --> 00:01:34,310
- What did he say
about the second girl?
40
00:01:34,378 --> 00:01:38,275
- He said that
he pulled her out of the car
41
00:01:38,344 --> 00:01:42,620
and ran her over until
she looked like spaghetti.
42
00:01:42,689 --> 00:01:44,827
- There's nobody behind
those eyes anymore.
43
00:01:44,896 --> 00:01:47,448
Dark, serial-killer eyes.
44
00:01:47,517 --> 00:01:49,862
- I guess you know what
comes across my mind--
45
00:01:49,931 --> 00:01:53,551
murder, just murder, murder.
46
00:01:57,862 --> 00:02:00,241
When I get that way,
I become the devil.
47
00:02:13,310 --> 00:02:15,758
- Hello, this is
a prepaid call from...
48
00:02:15,827 --> 00:02:17,827
- Wilson, Wilson, Wilson.
49
00:02:17,896 --> 00:02:19,862
- An inmate
at the Lee County Jail.
50
00:02:19,931 --> 00:02:22,896
To accept this call,
press zero.
51
00:02:24,551 --> 00:02:26,241
- Hi.
52
00:02:26,310 --> 00:02:27,517
- Hey.
53
00:02:27,586 --> 00:02:29,827
- Finally.
54
00:02:29,896 --> 00:02:32,862
I fell very much
in love with Wade.
55
00:02:32,930 --> 00:02:35,724
I was gonna get married
to him before the trial.
56
00:02:35,793 --> 00:02:38,413
I'm Alexis Williams.
I go by Allie.

60
00:02:47,930 --> 00:02:50,137
- A friend of mine asked me to
reach out to Wade because I--
61
00:02:50,206 --> 00:02:51,724
I--he knew that
I had known him.
62
00:02:51,793 --> 00:02:54,344
He kinda had
the same group of friends.
63
00:02:54,413 --> 00:02:56,482
- ♪ Showing the world
what we're not ♪
64
00:02:56,551 --> 00:03:00,034
- I sent a photo, and he's
like, I know who you are.
65
00:03:00,103 --> 00:03:01,827
And it just kinda
stemmed from there.

68
00:03:07,551 --> 00:03:08,793
- His dimples, that's--
69
00:03:08,862 --> 00:03:11,103
the smile, the side smile
with the dimples
70
00:03:11,172 --> 00:03:13,448
is, I think, what got it.
71
00:03:13,517 --> 00:03:15,689
So that did it for me.
72
00:03:18,034 --> 00:03:20,620
- He was calling me
all the time,
73
00:03:20,689 --> 00:03:22,620
and it ended up
becoming more romantic.
74
00:03:41,758 --> 00:03:44,586
- ♪ Blood in the water ♪
75
00:03:44,655 --> 00:03:46,965
♪ And love in the cut ♪
76
00:03:47,034 --> 00:03:49,793
- I believe in intimacy
as an exchange of energy.
77
00:03:49,862 --> 00:03:52,310
Being intimate with somebody
that I'm not physically there,
78
00:03:52,379 --> 00:03:53,965
too, as well,
wasn't hard for me.
79
00:04:11,206 --> 00:04:14,103
- ♪ Nowhere to go if
our world never turns ♪
80
00:04:14,172 --> 00:04:15,586
- He kept calling me
repeatedly,
81
00:04:15,655 --> 00:04:18,793
like, very persistently,
very, very, very much.
82
00:04:18,862 --> 00:04:21,862
And then it turned into,
you know, his charm.
83
00:04:35,793 --> 00:04:37,241
- At the time,
I was a bigger girl.
84
00:04:37,310 --> 00:04:39,103
I was about 300 pounds.
85
00:04:39,172 --> 00:04:40,862
- ♪ Blood in the water ♪
86
00:04:40,931 --> 00:04:43,275
- Which, he liked those girls.
He likes bigger women.
87
00:05:02,068 --> 00:05:05,344
- You have
one minute remaining.
88
00:05:05,413 --> 00:05:09,137
- It's really hard to
not fall for what he says
89
00:05:09,206 --> 00:05:11,000
and how he makes you feel
and the amount of times
90
00:05:11,068 --> 00:05:12,413
all you're doing is laughing.
91
00:05:12,482 --> 00:05:13,689
- Is that right?
92
00:05:16,172 --> 00:05:17,965
- I think some of my
hardest laughing moments
93
00:05:18,034 --> 00:05:19,620
were with him on the phone.
94
00:05:33,896 --> 00:05:37,310
- ♪ There's blood
in the water ♪
95
00:05:37,379 --> 00:05:39,620
- You feel appreciated.
You feel valued.
96
00:05:39,689 --> 00:05:41,310
And it was kind of like,
are you seeing anybody?
97
00:05:41,379 --> 00:05:43,448
Nah, you're not. We're dating.
98
00:05:43,517 --> 00:05:46,310
And then I became,
like, his girlfriend.
99
00:05:46,379 --> 00:05:48,379
And I was like, okay,
well, I can do this.
100
00:05:52,379 --> 00:05:56,068
- Wade Wilson, 19CF568.
101
00:05:56,137 --> 00:05:59,068
- We monitored his emails
and phone calls
102
00:05:59,137 --> 00:06:01,448
since the beginning
of his arrest.
103
00:06:01,517 --> 00:06:03,241
- You're charged
with first-degree murder,
104
00:06:03,310 --> 00:06:06,344
grand theft auto, battery.
105
00:06:07,965 --> 00:06:09,793
- My name is Sara Miller,
and I'm an assistant
106
00:06:09,862 --> 00:06:12,724
state attorney
in our Homicide unit.
107
00:06:12,793 --> 00:06:17,896
And there were just thousands
upon thousands of phone calls.
108
00:06:17,965 --> 00:06:23,344
He didn't ever talk about
victims or anybody but himself.
109
00:06:23,413 --> 00:06:24,517
It was all about him.
110
00:06:30,862 --> 00:06:34,000
- It seems that a lot of
ladies think he's attractive.
111
00:06:34,068 --> 00:06:37,137
He's the ultimate bad boy.
112
00:06:37,206 --> 00:06:40,034
It's hard for me,
as a woman, to imagine
113
00:06:40,103 --> 00:06:45,241
attraction to someone who had
violently killed other women.
114
00:07:01,448 --> 00:07:03,965
- He's always
thinking about sex,
115
00:07:04,034 --> 00:07:07,482
how to have more sex,
how to manipulate these women
116
00:07:07,551 --> 00:07:08,620
that he's talking to.
117
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,413
- Even his--his girlfriend
at the time, Mila,
118
00:07:21,482 --> 00:07:24,310
she still had contact
with him.
119
00:07:24,379 --> 00:07:29,275
- I hear his voice
and I'm like, Wade, like--
120
00:07:29,344 --> 00:07:31,551
I--I wasn't even sure.
121
00:07:31,620 --> 00:07:33,724
I couldn't believe
he was calling me.
122
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,896
At first, are you gonna
wait for me, you know?
123
00:07:44,965 --> 00:07:47,241
I know that you're
probably gonna find somebody
124
00:07:47,310 --> 00:07:49,241
on the outside
and be with them.
125
00:08:11,551 --> 00:08:13,793
- He wanted to know that
I would just hold on for him
126
00:08:13,862 --> 00:08:14,931
for a little bit longer.
127
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,413
He wanted me to wait for him.
128
00:08:57,241 --> 00:08:58,931
And then it didn't
take long for me
129
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:03,137
to just say, what happened?
130
00:09:03,206 --> 00:09:05,241
Just tell me everything.
131
00:09:05,310 --> 00:09:09,931
And he would say horrible
things, I choked that bitch.
132
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,551
- And then I was like,
what about the other girl?
133
00:10:42,482 --> 00:10:44,482
- He said,
can I still contact you?
134
00:10:44,551 --> 00:10:47,206
I just need you--
I need you to talk to.
135
00:11:09,206 --> 00:11:11,896
- Thank you for using GTL.
136
00:11:11,965 --> 00:11:15,172
- I wanted to hear him say,
I'm so sorry;
137
00:11:15,241 --> 00:11:17,758
I feel so bad; I--you know?
138
00:11:17,827 --> 00:11:20,862
I heard him say that,
but it was more he was sorry
139
00:11:20,931 --> 00:11:23,517
that--for him
getting locked up.
140
00:11:27,034 --> 00:11:28,551
- Wade Wilson
was in court this morning
141
00:11:28,620 --> 00:11:31,551
and pleaded not guilty
to first-degree murder charges
142
00:11:31,620 --> 00:11:34,517

that he was innocent.
148
00:11:46,482 --> 00:11:48,517
He told me that all they had
was the confession
149
00:11:48,586 --> 00:11:50,724
and that he was set up.
150
00:12:10,344 --> 00:12:13,413
- It did not seem out of--
that crazy that
151
00:12:13,482 --> 00:12:14,931
he would have been set up.
152
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,103

165
00:13:04,379 --> 00:13:06,586

00:13:22,206 --> 00:13:24,551
- There was a population out
there, not just here locally,
175
00:13:24,620 --> 00:13:26,310
but around the country
and the world.
176
00:13:33,862 --> 00:13:35,517
- They were even
putting all his walks
177
00:13:35,586 --> 00:13:39,206
into the courtroom, set to
music, and in slow motion,
178
00:13:39,275 --> 00:13:41,689
like, fangirling over him.
179
00:13:46,482 --> 00:13:48,034
- It's all the thirst traps
and the way
180
00:13:48,103 --> 00:13:51,000
he looks in a suit and the fact
that he's a murderer.
181
00:13:51,068 --> 00:13:53,620
And they just--some women
just find that attractive.
182
00:13:53,689 --> 00:13:56,103
He wanted a new suit
every time.
183
00:13:56,172 --> 00:13:58,827
He wanted a Gucci suit
and he wanted a Gucci shirt
184
00:13:58,896 --> 00:14:01,482
or crocodile shoes.
185
00:14:01,551 --> 00:14:04,482
What am I gonna to do with
dang crocodile shoes for you?
186
00:14:04,551 --> 00:14:06,310
I couldn't find
what he had wanted,
187
00:14:06,379 --> 00:14:09,482
and I was--already had
spent about, like, $150
188
00:14:09,551 --> 00:14:11,931
on shoes and socks
and underwear
189
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:13,931
and shirts for him to wear,
and ties.
190
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,034
And it just wasn't
good enough for him.
191
00:14:16,103 --> 00:14:18,724
- Let's talk about
Wade Wilson's tattoos.
192
00:14:18,793 --> 00:14:20,689
- Tattoos that can get you
in serious trouble.
193
00:14:20,758 --> 00:14:23,655
- Let us have a full rundown
of some of his tattoos.
194
00:14:23,724 --> 00:14:25,241
- While locked up,
195
00:14:25,310 --> 00:14:28,034
this is when Wade began
getting his face tattooed.
196
00:14:28,103 --> 00:14:30,172
It started with the swastika
on his face and head
197
00:14:30,241 --> 00:14:31,620
and evolved
into what looks like
198
00:14:31,689 --> 00:14:32,965
half a skull on his face.
199
00:14:33,034 --> 00:14:36,413
- His face is an entire
billboard of his life.
200
00:14:36,482 --> 00:14:40,310
- So Wade has a tattoo
that says TTG.
201
00:14:40,379 --> 00:14:42,586
- That stands for
"Trained To Go,"
202
00:14:42,655 --> 00:14:44,655
which is also another way
of saying ready for war.
203
00:14:47,379 --> 00:14:50,551
- There's a famous quote
from the 2008 Joker movie.
204
00:14:50,620 --> 00:14:53,896
- And then, of course,
Wade has the swastika tattoos.
205
00:14:55,379 --> 00:14:58,586
- Multiple,
besides the one on his cheek.
206
00:14:58,655 --> 00:15:00,965
His booking photo--
clean faced.
207
00:15:01,034 --> 00:15:03,689
He had tattoos,
but he was clean faced.
208
00:15:03,758 --> 00:15:06,689
When I met him, first thing I
did tell him was, I was Jewish.
209
00:15:06,758 --> 00:15:08,172
Did he have
a problem with that?
210
00:15:15,862 --> 00:15:17,379
- All right, good morning,
ladies and gentlemen.
211
00:15:17,448 --> 00:15:19,034
Let the record reflect
that the State's present,
212
00:15:19,103 --> 00:15:21,241
defense counsel
and the defendant are present.
213
00:15:21,310 --> 00:15:22,586
This is the case
of State of Florida
214
00:15:22,655 --> 00:15:27,655
versus Wade S. Wilson,
case number 19CF568.
215
00:15:27,724 --> 00:15:28,793
Correct?
- Yes, Your Honor.
216
00:15:28,862 --> 00:15:29,896
- Yes, Judge.
217
00:15:29,965 --> 00:15:31,000
- Are both the State
and defense
218
00:15:31,068 --> 00:15:32,000
ready for trial this morning?
219
00:15:32,068 --> 00:15:33,448
- Yes, Your Honor.
220
00:15:33,517 --> 00:15:37,068
- Yes, and I would like
to approach the bench first.
221
00:15:37,137 --> 00:15:41,172
Kevin and I
were the fifth attorneys--
222
00:15:41,241 --> 00:15:42,965
set of attorneys on the case.
223
00:15:43,034 --> 00:15:45,068
We weren't smart enough
to step back
224
00:15:45,137 --> 00:15:46,793
when they called
for volunteers.
225
00:15:46,862 --> 00:15:48,689
Court said, you're it.
226
00:15:48,758 --> 00:15:51,965
- There was a concern
by the defense counsel.
227
00:15:52,034 --> 00:15:55,586
They had asked that he,
you know,
228
00:15:55,655 --> 00:15:57,275
be allowed to wear makeup.
229
00:15:57,344 --> 00:15:59,689
- He wanted to have
the makeup at first
230
00:15:59,758 --> 00:16:03,241
because he didn't want
the jury to look at him
231
00:16:03,310 --> 00:16:05,758
and judge him
based off of his looks.
232
00:16:05,827 --> 00:16:08,862
I just got him a--
the tattoo cover-up makeup.
233
00:16:08,931 --> 00:16:10,758
It was just supposed to be able
to cover the--
234
00:16:10,827 --> 00:16:13,827
the black tattoo on his skin.
235
00:16:13,896 --> 00:16:17,379
- And then the morning that
he was supposed to put it on,
236
00:16:17,448 --> 00:16:19,344
he--he puts it on himself.
237
00:16:19,413 --> 00:16:23,172
Nobody goes in.
Nobody does it for him.
238
00:16:23,241 --> 00:16:27,137
And it--it didn't cover.
239
00:16:27,206 --> 00:16:30,586
So he just said, all right,
240
00:16:30,655 --> 00:16:34,310
we'll go without the cover up.
241
00:16:34,379 --> 00:16:36,034
- With that,
State ready to proceed?
242
00:16:36,103 --> 00:16:37,206
- Yes, Your Honor.
243
00:16:37,275 --> 00:16:38,448
- All right.
244
00:16:38,517 --> 00:16:39,758
And the defense is
ready to proceed
245
00:16:39,827 --> 00:16:41,000
with opening statements?
- Yes, Judge.
246
00:16:41,068 --> 00:16:42,103
- All right.
247
00:16:42,172 --> 00:16:43,103
- State.
248
00:16:43,172 --> 00:16:45,241
- Thank you.
249
00:16:45,310 --> 00:16:46,310
Good morning.
250
00:16:48,517 --> 00:16:51,827
Kristine Melton was
35 years old when she died.
251
00:16:53,413 --> 00:16:59,034
She was found in her
South Cape Coral residence,
252
00:16:59,103 --> 00:17:04,723
wrapped in some bedding,
tied with some shirts
253
00:17:04,792 --> 00:17:08,482
and leggings and
a bathing suit top.
254
00:17:10,344 --> 00:17:13,758
Her face was black and blue.
255
00:17:13,827 --> 00:17:16,689
Her fingernails were broken.
256
00:17:18,723 --> 00:17:22,413
She had marks around her neck
257
00:17:22,482 --> 00:17:26,758
as she lied on the floor
between her bedroom
258
00:17:26,827 --> 00:17:30,862
and kitchen area
of her residence.
259
00:17:32,931 --> 00:17:35,379
- So I was under
the impression that
260
00:17:35,448 --> 00:17:36,862
he was telling me the truth.
261
00:17:36,931 --> 00:17:38,862
And then when they started
with Kristine's case,
262
00:17:38,931 --> 00:17:40,758
that--that first part
of it, it was just--
263
00:17:40,827 --> 00:17:42,206
I ran to the bathroom
and threw up.
264
00:17:42,275 --> 00:17:43,482
And I was crying.
265
00:17:45,448 --> 00:17:49,103
- Diane Ruiz was 43 years old.
266
00:17:51,931 --> 00:17:57,827
She was found on an empty lot,
under some shrubs--
267
00:17:57,896 --> 00:18:01,034
there's a tree--
268
00:18:01,103 --> 00:18:02,103
just lying there.
269
00:18:04,655 --> 00:18:07,103
Her nose had been broken.
270
00:18:09,827 --> 00:18:15,137
Her hyoid bone and thyroid
cartilage had been broken.
271
00:18:17,620 --> 00:18:22,931
She had suffered
multiple rib fractures,
272
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,965
not only front
but also in the back.
273
00:18:26,034 --> 00:18:28,413
And if you want to believe
274
00:18:28,482 --> 00:18:31,068
what Mr. Wilson
told law enforcement,
275
00:18:31,137 --> 00:18:36,862
was that he had
driven over her repeatedly
276
00:18:36,931 --> 00:18:39,586
and tried to make her
look like spaghetti.
277
00:18:39,655 --> 00:18:42,862
- Just what he was thinking,
what he was thinking
278
00:18:42,931 --> 00:18:44,793
when he ran over those--
that young lady
279
00:18:44,862 --> 00:18:46,862
that was trying to go to work.
280
00:18:46,931 --> 00:18:48,241
What was he thinking?
281
00:18:52,551 --> 00:18:56,137
- I'm one of the 12 jury
that sat through this trial.
282
00:18:56,206 --> 00:19:00,344
The moment I walked in there
and I realized,
283
00:19:00,413 --> 00:19:04,413
when the case started,
how intense it was gonna be,
284
00:19:04,482 --> 00:19:07,724
I started thinking,
should I be on this case?
285
00:19:07,793 --> 00:19:11,000
But I knew I had
a duty to perform.
286
00:19:12,517 --> 00:19:14,724
- Now what you're gonna
learn during the course
287
00:19:14,793 --> 00:19:16,793
of this trial,
ladies and gentlemen,
288
00:19:16,862 --> 00:19:22,413
is that Ms. Ruiz and Ms. Melton
had three things in common.
289
00:19:24,379 --> 00:19:30,103
Both of them died
on the 7th of October, 2019.
290
00:19:31,586 --> 00:19:35,482
Both of them
had been strangled.
291
00:19:35,551 --> 00:19:41,413
And both of them, the last
person that they encountered
292
00:19:41,482 --> 00:19:43,620
was Mr. Wade Wilson.
293
00:19:43,689 --> 00:19:45,137
- He was smirking.
294
00:19:45,206 --> 00:19:47,517
He was staring jurors down.
295
00:19:47,586 --> 00:19:51,275
When we were picking a jury,
we had a juror cry.
296
00:19:51,344 --> 00:19:52,896
There were jurors
that were terrified
297
00:19:52,965 --> 00:19:55,896
just being in the courtroom
near him
298
00:19:55,965 --> 00:19:57,344
that we had to excuse.
299
00:19:57,413 --> 00:20:00,241
- He made a lot
of eye contact,
300
00:20:00,310 --> 00:20:02,931
especially when
we were walking in.
301
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:06,000
And for me, he would look
directly at me at times,
302
00:20:06,068 --> 00:20:08,275
and that stuck with me as well.
303
00:20:10,344 --> 00:20:12,758
- Now, ladies and gentlemen,
during the course
304
00:20:12,827 --> 00:20:14,344
of this trial,
you're gonna hear
305
00:20:14,413 --> 00:20:16,655
about all of the admissions
that he made.
306
00:20:16,724 --> 00:20:22,275
You're gonna hear what
he told law enforcement.
307
00:20:22,344 --> 00:20:26,379
And you're gonna hear
that when they asked him
308
00:20:26,448 --> 00:20:30,103
why he killed
Ms. Melton, he said,
309
00:20:30,172 --> 00:20:31,793
I just wanted to do it.
310
00:20:44,034 --> 00:20:45,068
- And then...
311
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:50,965
They asked him,
well, what about Ms. Ruiz?
312
00:20:53,310 --> 00:20:56,103
His response was...
313
00:21:00,206 --> 00:21:03,310
"Eff it.
314
00:21:03,379 --> 00:21:05,827
"I should kill her.
315
00:21:05,896 --> 00:21:07,379
I already got one down."
316
00:21:18,034 --> 00:21:23,655
- When you take all of that
and you put it together,
317
00:21:23,724 --> 00:21:28,000
the State wants you to return
the only verdict that
318
00:21:28,068 --> 00:21:32,275
the evidence is gonna
support, and that is guilty
319
00:21:32,344 --> 00:21:36,034
of first-degree premeditated
murder for the strangulation
320
00:21:36,103 --> 00:21:39,482
and killing of Ms. Melton,
321
00:21:39,551 --> 00:21:44,655
guilty for battery
on Ms. Melissa Montanez,
322
00:21:44,724 --> 00:21:50,965
guilty on first-degree murder
of Ms. Diana Ruiz
323
00:21:51,034 --> 00:21:54,241
for strangling, killing her,
324
00:21:54,310 --> 00:21:57,931
and running her over
with that car.
325
00:21:59,793 --> 00:22:02,000
- I was trying to still
keep an open mind.
326
00:22:02,068 --> 00:22:05,448
I was battling my mind and my
heart at the same time for--
327
00:22:05,517 --> 00:22:07,793
for days, weeks.
328
00:22:12,862 --> 00:22:15,551
- There's only so much
you can do with this case.
329
00:22:15,620 --> 00:22:17,379
Usually when you do an opening,
330
00:22:17,448 --> 00:22:20,793
you like to have
a solid defense
331
00:22:20,862 --> 00:22:22,793
or something in your favor.
332
00:22:25,172 --> 00:22:28,137
And at that point,
we were still
333
00:22:28,206 --> 00:22:31,551
tiptoeing through the tulips,
trying to come up with one.
334
00:22:33,517 --> 00:22:35,965
The defense is gonna--
is gonna reserve, judge.
335
00:22:36,034 --> 00:22:37,206
- Okay.
336
00:22:37,275 --> 00:22:39,000
Very well.
337
00:22:39,068 --> 00:22:40,793
- For a defense
attorney to then say,
338
00:22:40,862 --> 00:22:42,586
uh, we waive our
opening statement,
339
00:22:42,655 --> 00:22:43,931
and then the judge looks
at the State and says,
340
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,344
okay, call your first witness,
it's like, whoa.
341
00:22:47,758 --> 00:22:50,068
- The State calls
Melissa Montanez.
342
00:22:50,137 --> 00:22:52,896
- ♪ Grow up alive just
to feel the unknown ♪
343
00:22:52,965 --> 00:22:54,586
- You went from being
the love of his life
344
00:22:54,655 --> 00:22:55,965
to testifying against him.
345
00:22:56,034 --> 00:22:57,137
Like, that's gotta be hard.
346
00:23:00,344 --> 00:23:04,275
- ♪ Maybe tomorrow
will never come ♪
347
00:23:14,379 --> 00:23:18,206
- I honestly did not think
I was gonna be able to do it.
348
00:23:18,275 --> 00:23:21,068
- ♪ Is this all that we are ♪
349
00:23:21,137 --> 00:23:24,275
- I begged and pleaded
that I didn't want to.
350
00:23:24,344 --> 00:23:25,965
You're saying I have to
sit in front of him...
351
00:23:26,034 --> 00:23:28,793
- ♪ Is this all
that we've got ♪
352
00:23:28,862 --> 00:23:32,137
- And you're saying I have to
testify against him in court.
353
00:23:32,206 --> 00:23:33,758
I couldn't do it.
354
00:23:33,827 --> 00:23:37,689
It wasn't until
they told me how important
355
00:23:37,758 --> 00:23:39,689
that it was that I--I was.
356
00:23:39,758 --> 00:23:43,551
Like, I was the only voice for
Kristine Melton and Diane Ruiz.
357
00:23:43,620 --> 00:23:48,137
- ♪ Blood in the water ♪
358
00:23:48,206 --> 00:23:52,034
- Because I was the only one
that he beat up and survived...
359
00:23:52,103 --> 00:23:54,896
- ♪ Blood in the water ♪
360
00:23:54,965 --> 00:23:59,758
- That I could say,
then, how scary he was.
361
00:24:01,172 --> 00:24:02,620
- Do you solemnly
swear or affirm
362
00:24:02,689 --> 00:24:03,793
that the testimony
that you give
363
00:24:03,862 --> 00:24:05,310
will be the truth,
the whole truth,
364
00:24:05,379 --> 00:24:06,413
and nothing but the truth?
365
00:24:06,482 --> 00:24:07,551
- Yes.
366
00:24:09,310 --> 00:24:12,068
I don't know if
it'll ever really set in.
367
00:24:12,137 --> 00:24:16,551
It's just surreal to be able
to absorb that
368
00:24:16,620 --> 00:24:19,620
somebody you were in love with
killed two women,
369
00:24:19,689 --> 00:24:21,793
was a serial killer, I guess.
370
00:24:21,862 --> 00:24:24,620
- ♪ Love in the cut ♪
371
00:24:24,689 --> 00:24:27,068
- Weirdly enough, I could
understand if he murdered me.
372
00:24:28,620 --> 00:24:32,172
But I can't imagine him
just randomly
373
00:24:32,241 --> 00:24:34,965
going on a killing spree
for girls he did not know.
374
00:24:35,034 --> 00:24:38,965
It feels--like, I have
a lot of guilt on that.
375
00:24:39,034 --> 00:24:41,275
- Now, do you know someone
by the name of Wade Wilson?
376
00:24:41,344 --> 00:24:42,620
- Yes.
377
00:24:42,689 --> 00:24:44,551
- Did you date him
for a short period of time?
378
00:24:44,620 --> 00:24:46,068
- Yes.
379
00:24:46,137 --> 00:24:47,172
Yes.
380
00:24:47,241 --> 00:24:48,793
I was hyperventilating.
381
00:24:48,862 --> 00:24:52,206
I couldn't get my breath in,
thought I was gonna pass out.
382
00:24:54,137 --> 00:24:56,931
I had cried many different
times before getting in there,
383
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,103
ruined my makeup
several different times,
384
00:24:59,172 --> 00:25:01,551
ruined my hair
several different times,
385
00:25:01,620 --> 00:25:03,827
just trying to get in there.
386
00:25:03,896 --> 00:25:07,000
- And then she described
in gruesome detail...
387
00:25:09,034 --> 00:25:13,482
What her interaction was when
she had met him up at her spa.
388
00:25:13,551 --> 00:25:15,586
And, you know, the--
389
00:25:15,655 --> 00:25:18,827
the pain and suffering that
she had to endure at his hands
390
00:25:18,896 --> 00:25:22,344
was unimaginable.
391
00:25:22,413 --> 00:25:24,275
- How did he act?
392
00:25:24,344 --> 00:25:26,344
- Violent, aggressive.
393
00:25:26,413 --> 00:25:28,103
I knew I was gonna
die that day.
394
00:25:28,172 --> 00:25:30,275
I was just buy--buying time.
395
00:25:30,344 --> 00:25:33,379
I'm trying to reason with him,
trying to talk to him.
396
00:25:33,448 --> 00:25:35,689
But there's nobody
behind those eyes anymore.
397
00:25:35,758 --> 00:25:41,965
- Okay, so at some point,
does he--
398
00:25:42,034 --> 00:25:44,448
does he continue to beat you
as you're up there?
399
00:25:44,517 --> 00:25:45,724
- Yes.
- Does he punch you?
400
00:25:45,793 --> 00:25:46,724
- Yes.
401
00:25:46,793 --> 00:25:48,482
- Okay, describe that punch.
402
00:25:48,551 --> 00:25:52,793
- The final
and end punch that I remember,
403
00:25:52,862 --> 00:25:55,413
he got me so straight on,
404
00:25:55,482 --> 00:25:59,413
and blood just went crazy,
everywhere.
405
00:25:59,482 --> 00:26:04,896
And it almost was like, a
minute where I could dunk under
406
00:26:04,965 --> 00:26:08,931
and run under his arm,
run down the stairs,
407
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,241
and then that's when
my neighboring businesses,
408
00:26:11,310 --> 00:26:13,724
the design studio,
were calling me--
409
00:26:13,793 --> 00:26:15,620
Mila, Mila, get--get in here.
410
00:26:15,689 --> 00:26:18,931
And then, like, I didn't even
realize how crazy I looked,
411
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,034
but like, they rescued me.
412
00:26:21,103 --> 00:26:22,517
And I don't know what
happened after that.
413
00:26:22,586 --> 00:26:24,000
I'm assuming he left.
414
00:26:26,793 --> 00:26:30,103
- Having a child of my own
or a daughter,
415
00:26:30,172 --> 00:26:32,551
no man wants to see
their kid go through that.
416
00:26:32,620 --> 00:26:34,793
Of course, you would
sympathize with her.
417
00:26:34,862 --> 00:26:37,655
I'm just happy that
she made it out alive.
418
00:26:37,724 --> 00:26:40,172
- Now, do you, as you're
sitting here in court,
419
00:26:40,241 --> 00:26:42,137
see the person who has
threatened to kill you,
420
00:26:42,206 --> 00:26:44,517
and who was battering you
that morning, sitting in court?
421
00:26:44,586 --> 00:26:45,827
- Yes.
422
00:26:45,896 --> 00:26:47,931
- Would you please point to him
and identify him
423
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:48,931
by his clothing?
424
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,896
- Wade Wilson in the blue suit.
425
00:26:51,965 --> 00:26:54,000
- Gonna let the record
reflect that the witness
426
00:26:54,068 --> 00:26:56,758
has identified the defendant.
427
00:26:56,827 --> 00:27:02,103
To testify against him
and to see his face again,
428
00:27:02,172 --> 00:27:03,965
that's a really,
really hard thing
429
00:27:04,034 --> 00:27:05,655
for witnesses to have to do.
430
00:27:05,724 --> 00:27:10,413
She's strong to come in
and testify and strong to--
431
00:27:10,482 --> 00:27:12,896
to be able
to stand up on cross.
432
00:27:12,965 --> 00:27:14,241
- When you were
at the Buddha Bar,
433
00:27:14,310 --> 00:27:16,310
or before going
to the Buddha Bar...
434
00:27:19,068 --> 00:27:21,896
- Did you--
were you using cocaine?
435
00:27:21,965 --> 00:27:23,620
- Yes.
436
00:27:23,689 --> 00:27:24,965
- Your cocaine?
437
00:27:25,034 --> 00:27:26,068
- No.
438
00:27:26,137 --> 00:27:27,068
- Who's?
439
00:27:27,137 --> 00:27:29,034
- He--he had some.
440
00:27:30,827 --> 00:27:33,551
- You said--
when you met up with him,
441
00:27:33,620 --> 00:27:37,241
you said there was nobody
behind those eyes anymore.
442
00:27:37,310 --> 00:27:38,241
- Yes, that's true.
443
00:27:38,310 --> 00:27:39,689
- What did you mean?
444
00:27:39,758 --> 00:27:42,068
- Dark, serial-killer eyes,
445
00:27:42,137 --> 00:27:44,068
where there's nothing
to reason with.
446
00:27:44,137 --> 00:27:45,413
It's a black hole.
447
00:27:45,482 --> 00:27:46,896
You're saying words.
448
00:27:46,965 --> 00:27:49,068
You're trying to evoke emotion
in somebody,
449
00:27:49,137 --> 00:27:53,103
and there's nothing
behind those eyes.
450
00:27:53,172 --> 00:27:55,413
- Nothing further, Judge.
451
00:27:55,482 --> 00:27:57,448
- She withstood
cross-examination
452
00:27:57,517 --> 00:28:00,310
like a palm tree in a
hurricane, I'll tell you that.
453
00:28:00,379 --> 00:28:02,137
- Any redirect?
- Nothing further.
454
00:28:02,206 --> 00:28:04,206
I ask that she be released.
- Any objection?
455
00:28:04,275 --> 00:28:05,862
- No.
- She can be excused.
456
00:28:05,931 --> 00:28:08,000
You're--you can step down.
You're excused.
457
00:28:09,758 --> 00:28:11,413
- I don't--I can't think
of anything I've done,
458
00:28:11,482 --> 00:28:13,724
harder than that.
459
00:28:13,793 --> 00:28:17,241
And then I started getting
all these death threats
460
00:28:17,310 --> 00:28:21,000
that I had testified
against him.
461
00:28:21,068 --> 00:28:25,620
I couldn't show up to work for
several months after the trial.
462
00:28:25,689 --> 00:28:28,103
I thought I did
my job on trial.
463
00:28:28,172 --> 00:28:30,758
I thought that was
all I had to speak.
464
00:28:30,827 --> 00:28:35,241
I didn't know I had to further
defend myself after all this,
465
00:28:35,310 --> 00:28:38,413
and I didn't know that
there was, I don't know,
466
00:28:38,482 --> 00:28:41,241
hundreds of thousands of girls
467
00:28:41,310 --> 00:28:43,482
that I had to
defend myself from,
468
00:28:43,551 --> 00:28:44,758
from a serial killer.
469
00:28:44,827 --> 00:28:46,103
That was crazy.
470
00:28:46,172 --> 00:28:47,931

I think they call themselves
Wade Wives,
473
00:28:51,827 --> 00:28:55,620
people who were trying
to have relationships with him.
474
00:28:55,689 --> 00:28:58,241
- He did ask for pictures.
475
00:28:58,310 --> 00:29:00,965
And then when he got them,
he was like, obviously
476
00:29:01,034 --> 00:29:04,379
very sweet, very charming,
and complimentary
477
00:29:04,448 --> 00:29:05,689
about the pictures.
478
00:29:05,758 --> 00:29:08,068
And then he was
asking for more.
479
00:29:08,137 --> 00:29:13,448
- This defendant, who's
covered with facial tattoos,
480
00:29:13,517 --> 00:29:15,965
and for some reason,
fascinates people...
481
00:29:16,034 --> 00:29:18,413
- Meet Wade Wilson,
who apparently has been
482
00:29:18,482 --> 00:29:20,862
taking over corners of TikTok.
483
00:29:20,931 --> 00:29:22,275
- Wade Wilson.
- Wade Wilson.
484
00:29:22,344 --> 00:29:24,862
- He's charismatic
and he has, like, tattoos.
485
00:29:24,931 --> 00:29:26,620
- He knew what was
going on on the outside.
486
00:29:26,689 --> 00:29:28,827
He knew what was being
posted on TikTok.
487
00:29:28,896 --> 00:29:31,620
He literally knows everything.
488
00:29:31,689 --> 00:29:34,034
- And then it certainly
didn't help that his name
489
00:29:34,103 --> 00:29:36,517
is Wade Wilson from "Deadpool."
490
00:29:36,586 --> 00:29:38,241

For You page, Wade Wilson,
the Deadpool killer.
494
00:29:45,862 --> 00:29:48,172
- He really thinks that
he's a Marvel character?
495
00:29:49,689 --> 00:29:51,655
- It kind of reminds you
of Charles Manson
496
00:29:51,724 --> 00:29:52,965
a little bit, doesn't it?
497
00:29:53,034 --> 00:29:55,241
He was building
a cult following.
498
00:29:55,310 --> 00:29:56,965
There were women,
and there were folks out there
499
00:29:57,034 --> 00:29:59,413
that were actually
following his--his commands
500
00:29:59,482 --> 00:30:01,586
and--and getting tattoos done.
501
00:30:03,551 --> 00:30:05,103
- I did.
502
00:30:05,172 --> 00:30:07,310
I have it right here.
503
00:30:10,241 --> 00:30:12,655
It was one of those,
tattoo your name on me
504
00:30:12,724 --> 00:30:13,655
so I know it's real.
505
00:30:15,827 --> 00:30:19,000
Sorry, but it was, literally
the words from his mouth.
506
00:30:20,379 --> 00:30:21,896
And I've never
done that before.
507
00:30:21,965 --> 00:30:23,655
I don't have any other name on
my body, including my children.
508
00:30:23,724 --> 00:30:25,724
So it was a big--
it was something
509
00:30:25,793 --> 00:30:28,310
that I was very serious about.

00:31:10,793 --> 00:31:13,896
He had more canteen than
he can even use,
519
00:31:13,965 --> 00:31:18,034
that even guys
were fangirling over him.
520
00:31:48,137 --> 00:31:50,862
- In the four or five years
that Wade Wilson was in jail,
521
00:31:50,931 --> 00:31:54,655
we saw Wade Wilson
go through a series of women
522
00:31:54,724 --> 00:31:56,517
who were absolutely
enthralled with him.
523
00:31:56,586 --> 00:31:58,379
I'm Dr. Casey Jordan.
524
00:31:58,448 --> 00:32:01,517
I'm a criminologist, attorney,
and behavior analyst.
525
00:32:01,586 --> 00:32:06,172
There's a sense of safety and
control in loving a bad boy.
526
00:32:06,241 --> 00:32:08,413
Look, here's a violent person.
527
00:32:08,482 --> 00:32:11,413
I'm controlling him,
and he can't hurt me.
528
00:32:11,482 --> 00:32:13,310
It's not just
his good looks, though.
529
00:32:13,379 --> 00:32:16,379
It's the notoriety
of his horrific crimes.
530
00:32:18,379 --> 00:32:19,827
- Morning.
531
00:32:19,896 --> 00:32:21,517
- Please introduce yourself
to the ladies and gentlemen
532
00:32:21,586 --> 00:32:22,862
of the jury
by telling them your name.
533
00:32:22,931 --> 00:32:25,586
- Sure, how you doing?
I am Doctor Thomas Coyne.
534
00:32:25,655 --> 00:32:29,172
I was the deputy chief medical
examiner here at District 21.
535
00:32:29,241 --> 00:32:31,896
- Did you have
an opportunity to perform
536
00:32:31,965 --> 00:32:34,344
an autopsy of Ms. Diana Ruiz?
537
00:32:34,413 --> 00:32:36,137
- I did.
538
00:32:36,206 --> 00:32:38,896
So these are all photographs
that were taken
539
00:32:38,965 --> 00:32:41,034
on the day of the autopsy
in the morgue,
540
00:32:41,103 --> 00:32:43,000
here in Fort Myers.
541
00:32:43,068 --> 00:32:45,655
- I always take note
of--of how the defendant
542
00:32:45,724 --> 00:32:47,724
responds to certain evidence.
543
00:32:47,793 --> 00:32:51,068
And Wade Wilson stared right
at those autopsy photos,
544
00:32:51,137 --> 00:32:53,655
almost as if he was
proud of what he did.
545
00:32:53,724 --> 00:32:58,448
In Wade Wilson's cell,
he has photos on the wall.
546
00:32:58,517 --> 00:33:01,275
For him, it's a brag sheet.
547
00:33:01,344 --> 00:33:03,586
The most disturbing photo
is the field
548
00:33:03,655 --> 00:33:06,379
where he dumped
Diane Ruiz's body.
549
00:33:06,448 --> 00:33:08,827
It's not just a memento.
550
00:33:08,896 --> 00:33:10,862
It's a constant reminder.
551
00:33:10,931 --> 00:33:14,206
He's reliving the horrible,
atrocious murder
552
00:33:14,275 --> 00:33:16,413
of Diane Ruiz.
553
00:33:16,482 --> 00:33:18,379
- Judge, the State would like
to call Mr. Scott Hannon.
554
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,034
- All right, you may proceed.
- Thank you, Your Honor.
555
00:33:24,103 --> 00:33:28,000
- I am Scott Hannon,
the fiancé of Diane Ruiz.
556
00:33:28,068 --> 00:33:30,793
- So you--do you recognize
this particular item,
557
00:33:30,862 --> 00:33:33,517
State's 30I that was previously
admitted into evidence?
558
00:33:33,586 --> 00:33:35,551
- That's the ring I got her.
559
00:33:35,620 --> 00:33:38,000
- Okay.
And what did that ring signify?
560
00:33:40,758 --> 00:33:43,551
- Our love for each other.
561
00:33:43,620 --> 00:33:45,310
- When you left for work
that morning,
562
00:33:45,379 --> 00:33:47,862
was Ms. Ruiz
still at the residence?
563
00:33:47,931 --> 00:33:50,586
- Yes, so she was still in bed.
564
00:33:50,655 --> 00:33:53,000
- So you didn't see her
after you'd left.
565
00:33:53,068 --> 00:33:55,241
Is that correct?
- Nope.
566
00:33:55,310 --> 00:33:56,862
- Did you have any
contact with her
567
00:33:56,931 --> 00:33:59,413
after you left
for work that day?
568
00:33:59,482 --> 00:34:03,137
- A brief text message.
569
00:34:03,206 --> 00:34:04,793
She, uh...
570
00:34:08,310 --> 00:34:09,688
She, uh...
571
00:34:14,206 --> 00:34:18,862
Sh--she didn't think
I gave her a kiss goodbye.
572
00:34:20,724 --> 00:34:22,137
- Had you?
573
00:34:22,206 --> 00:34:23,655
- Of course.
574
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,379
- Any time I looked over
at him, he just sat there,
575
00:34:35,447 --> 00:34:39,551
and it seemed to be enjoying
and listening to everything
576
00:34:39,620 --> 00:34:41,206
that we had to present,
you know,
577
00:34:41,275 --> 00:34:43,447
to the ladies and gentlemen
of the jury.
578
00:34:43,516 --> 00:34:46,137
You're dealing with someone,
you know, quite sick.
579
00:34:46,206 --> 00:34:49,413
And this is an individual
who's taken depravity
580
00:34:49,482 --> 00:34:51,344
to a completely
different level.
581
00:34:52,965 --> 00:34:55,103
- ♪ Something about this
just isn't right ♪
582
00:35:04,310 --> 00:35:05,482
- Good morning,
ladies and gentlemen.
583
00:35:05,551 --> 00:35:07,448
Welcome back.
We're ready to proceed.
584
00:35:07,517 --> 00:35:12,137
- I was believing what I was
told, so much that I didn't--
585
00:35:12,206 --> 00:35:14,758
I was ignoring my intuition.
586
00:35:22,931 --> 00:35:25,137
- I think it was
a possessive thing that
587
00:35:25,206 --> 00:35:28,517
attracted me so much, is that
it was a dominance deal,
588
00:35:28,586 --> 00:35:30,965
and I--just, I liked the fact
589
00:35:31,034 --> 00:35:34,655
that he was very possessive
over me at the time.
590
00:35:34,724 --> 00:35:37,413
"I love you so much,
so committed to you,
591
00:35:37,482 --> 00:35:39,758
"trusting in you.
Forever yours.
592
00:35:39,827 --> 00:35:42,103
Now let's get married
already."
593
00:35:42,172 --> 00:35:45,448
I was under the impression that
he was going to be released
594
00:35:45,517 --> 00:35:47,000
on the murder charges.
595
00:35:57,758 --> 00:35:59,896
- So I was preparing for him
to do a 10 to 15 year bid,
596
00:35:59,965 --> 00:36:02,103
and I was still
going to marry him,
597
00:36:02,172 --> 00:36:05,103
thinking that if he's
innocent on these charges,
598
00:36:05,172 --> 00:36:07,310
then he wasn't lying to me,
then I will stick it through
599
00:36:07,379 --> 00:36:09,241
and be with him on these ones,
600
00:36:09,310 --> 00:36:11,137
because it's just what
it was at the time.
601
00:36:11,206 --> 00:36:15,793
"Undoubtedly, wholeheartedly,
I am yours, Wade."
602
00:36:15,862 --> 00:36:17,689
"Wade" with a swastika.
603
00:36:19,931 --> 00:36:21,620
- Please tell the jurors
your name.
604
00:36:21,689 --> 00:36:23,689
- Stephanie Sailors.
605
00:36:23,758 --> 00:36:26,448
- Do you know someone by
the name of Kristine Melton?
606
00:36:26,517 --> 00:36:29,068
- Yes--Kristine and I
have been friends
607
00:36:29,137 --> 00:36:30,379
since we were in high school.
608
00:36:32,241 --> 00:36:37,000
- I wanna take you back
to October 6 of 2019.
609
00:36:37,068 --> 00:36:39,586
Did you see Kristine
on that day?
610
00:36:39,655 --> 00:36:42,241
- Kristine and I
had planned to go out
611
00:36:42,310 --> 00:36:44,172
drinking at the Buddha Bar.
612
00:36:47,068 --> 00:36:49,310
We socialized quite a bit.
613
00:36:49,379 --> 00:36:51,517
We danced. We got drinks.
614
00:36:51,586 --> 00:36:55,068
Pretty standard
going-out night.
615
00:36:55,137 --> 00:36:57,931
- And while you were there,
did someone approach you?
616
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:01,344
- Yeah, somebody jumped out
in front of me and said,
617
00:37:01,413 --> 00:37:03,689
hey, who's your friend?
618
00:37:03,758 --> 00:37:07,758
And gestured towards Kristine.
619
00:37:07,827 --> 00:37:10,344
And I grabbed Kristine
and said, hey,
620
00:37:10,413 --> 00:37:11,758
this guy wants to meet you.
621
00:37:11,827 --> 00:37:14,310
- How did he
introduce himself to you?
622
00:37:14,379 --> 00:37:17,655
- At that point,
he introduced himself as JR.
623
00:37:17,724 --> 00:37:20,103
- Do you see JR sitting
in the courtroom today?
624
00:37:20,172 --> 00:37:23,758
- Yes, right there,
in a bright blue suit.
625
00:37:23,827 --> 00:37:27,344
- Now, has his appearance
changed since the time
626
00:37:27,413 --> 00:37:28,586
that you met him?
627
00:37:28,655 --> 00:37:33,724
- Yes, he has a lot more
tattoos on his face.
628
00:37:33,793 --> 00:37:36,482
- As far as JR's concerned,
does he exhibit
629
00:37:36,551 --> 00:37:40,310
any kind of anger
or any kind of red flags?
630
00:37:40,379 --> 00:37:41,655
- No, not at all.
631
00:37:41,724 --> 00:37:43,620
- And in fact, you--
you and Kristine
632
00:37:43,689 --> 00:37:44,620
thought he was charming?
633
00:37:44,689 --> 00:37:46,000
- Mm-hmm.
634
00:37:57,965 --> 00:38:00,931
- We were concerned that,
are we gonna have jurors
635
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:04,620
that might question why she
would go home with a stranger
636
00:38:04,689 --> 00:38:07,793
or, you know,
why she would be so trusting?
637
00:38:07,862 --> 00:38:11,620
Now, what happened when you
got back to Kristine's home?
638
00:38:11,689 --> 00:38:13,586
- I remember telling her,
you know,
639
00:38:13,655 --> 00:38:16,896
I had to go home because I had
to go to work the next day
640
00:38:16,965 --> 00:38:18,724
and take my son to school.
641
00:38:18,793 --> 00:38:21,448
- When she told you goodbye and
that she'd see you tomorrow,
642
00:38:21,517 --> 00:38:23,724
did you had any concerns
for her safety?
643
00:38:23,793 --> 00:38:25,172
- No.
644
00:38:25,241 --> 00:38:28,586
- And in fact, if you did,
would you have left her home
645
00:38:28,655 --> 00:38:31,241
with just her and Wade Wilson
in that house?
646
00:38:31,310 --> 00:38:33,068
- Not at all.
647
00:38:33,137 --> 00:38:36,620
And if she was concerned,
Kristine would have never
648
00:38:36,689 --> 00:38:38,965
let me leave that house
if she was scared.
649
00:38:39,034 --> 00:38:40,827
She would have said,
650
00:38:40,896 --> 00:38:43,275
let's get this guy
out of here together.
651
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:47,689
- The case was never
about Mr. Wilson.
652
00:38:47,758 --> 00:38:49,896
I mean,
it was about Diane Ruiz,
653
00:38:49,965 --> 00:38:51,551
and it was about
Kristine Melton.
654
00:38:51,620 --> 00:38:54,931
It was about the two women
who he'd come into contact with
655
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,206
and taken their lives.
656
00:39:18,206 --> 00:39:20,482
- We felt as though the
death penalty was warranted.
657
00:39:20,551 --> 00:39:22,655
And, you know,
quite frankly, he earned it.
658
00:39:36,931 --> 00:39:38,931
- He's mostly offended
by the way
659
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:40,482
that it was presented to him.
660
00:39:40,551 --> 00:39:43,310
And he doesn't like the jokes
that the correctional officers
661
00:39:43,379 --> 00:39:44,517
are making around him.
662
00:40:19,724 --> 00:40:23,517
- This is a guy who's
on trial, facing death,
663
00:40:23,586 --> 00:40:26,862
and he hadn't--
seemed to have no concern.
664
00:40:28,413 --> 00:40:32,034
The State calls
Steven Testasecca.
665
00:40:35,482 --> 00:40:37,620
Do you know someone by
the name of Wade Wilson?
666
00:40:37,689 --> 00:40:38,620
- Yes, ma'am.
667
00:40:38,689 --> 00:40:39,758
- How do you know Wade Wilson?
668
00:40:39,827 --> 00:40:42,620
- He's my son.
669
00:40:42,689 --> 00:40:44,206
- How old were you
when you found out
670
00:40:44,275 --> 00:40:46,275
you were going to be
his father?
671
00:40:46,344 --> 00:40:48,827
- 14 or 15.
672
00:40:48,896 --> 00:40:50,896
- How old was his mother
at the time?
673
00:40:50,965 --> 00:40:53,586
- A year younger than me.
674
00:40:53,655 --> 00:40:56,586
- Now, were either of you
in a position at that age
675
00:40:56,655 --> 00:40:58,103
to be able to raise him?
676
00:40:58,172 --> 00:40:59,310
- No, ma'am.
677
00:40:59,379 --> 00:41:01,482
- Was he placed up
for adoption?
678
00:41:01,551 --> 00:41:03,034
- Yes, ma'am.
679
00:41:03,103 --> 00:41:05,137
- When you put a father
up on the stand,
680
00:41:05,206 --> 00:41:06,448
I mean, he was torn.
681
00:41:06,517 --> 00:41:07,758
I mean, that's his son.
682
00:41:07,827 --> 00:41:10,241
His moral compass
pointed due north,
683
00:41:10,310 --> 00:41:12,689
and he didn't have
any reservations
684
00:41:12,758 --> 00:41:14,275
about coming in and--
685
00:41:14,344 --> 00:41:17,655
and repeating the things
that Mr. Wilson told him.
686
00:41:17,724 --> 00:41:24,068
- I wanna turn your attention
to Monday, October 7th of 2019.
687
00:41:24,137 --> 00:41:26,862
Did Wade Wilson
get in touch with you
688
00:41:26,931 --> 00:41:29,000
through phone call that day?
- Yes, ma'am.
689
00:41:29,068 --> 00:41:32,000
- And what did he
tell you in that call?
690
00:41:32,068 --> 00:41:34,655
- He just told me,
you know, he did something.
691
00:41:34,724 --> 00:41:38,793
There was two people gone
that would not be back.
692
00:41:38,862 --> 00:41:40,862
He--he said, I'm a killer.
693
00:41:40,931 --> 00:41:43,413
I choked that bitch.
694
00:41:43,482 --> 00:41:47,586
- As he's telling you
all these things,
695
00:41:47,655 --> 00:41:50,137
what's his demeanor
as he's telling you?
696
00:41:52,551 --> 00:41:54,482
- He was excited.
697
00:41:54,551 --> 00:41:57,000
- You say excited.
What do you mean by that?
698
00:41:58,413 --> 00:42:00,655
- He just--I felt like
he was wanting me
699
00:42:00,724 --> 00:42:03,206
to feel the way he felt
about it.
700
00:42:03,275 --> 00:42:05,482
- Did he seem proud of it?
701
00:42:05,551 --> 00:42:07,206
- Yes.
702
00:42:07,275 --> 00:42:10,413
- Did he seem to show
any kind of remorse?
703
00:42:10,482 --> 00:42:12,344
- No, ma'am.
704
00:42:12,413 --> 00:42:15,310
- The dad was very impactful.
705
00:42:15,379 --> 00:42:17,275
He did the right thing.
706
00:42:17,344 --> 00:42:19,551
He did the right thing.
707
00:42:19,620 --> 00:42:22,068
- Did you feel conflicted
about giving him over
708
00:42:22,137 --> 00:42:23,344
to law enforcement initially?
709
00:42:23,413 --> 00:42:24,586
- Yes, ma'am.
710
00:42:24,655 --> 00:42:27,034
- And did you have
additional concerns
711
00:42:27,103 --> 00:42:28,379
of what might happen
if you didn't
712
00:42:28,448 --> 00:42:30,137
turn him into law enforcement?
713
00:42:30,206 --> 00:42:31,758
- Yes, ma'am.
- What was that, sir?
714
00:42:31,827 --> 00:42:34,517
- He would have done it again.
715
00:42:34,586 --> 00:42:36,551
- I couldn't imagine having
to make that decision,
716
00:42:36,620 --> 00:42:39,482
to turn your son in because he
was going to hurt more people.
717
00:42:39,551 --> 00:42:41,793
And he's gotten
so much hate for it.
718
00:42:43,551 --> 00:42:45,172
Because people
don't understand.
719
00:42:45,241 --> 00:42:47,689
They see him as
a crappy parent, when this man
720
00:42:47,758 --> 00:42:50,034
did everybody a favor.
721
00:42:50,103 --> 00:42:52,413
- Do you see your son sitting
here in the courtroom?
722
00:42:52,482 --> 00:42:53,586
- Yes, ma'am.
723
00:42:53,655 --> 00:42:54,551
- And would you
describe an article
724
00:42:54,620 --> 00:42:55,724
of clothing he's wearing?
725
00:42:55,793 --> 00:43:01,000
- White shirt,
blue tie, dark suit.
726
00:43:01,068 --> 00:43:03,551
- I have nothing further,
and tender this witness.
727
00:43:09,275 --> 00:43:12,517
- The irony of it is,
he's still pulling
728
00:43:12,586 --> 00:43:16,310
the strings from a jail cell.
729
00:43:16,379 --> 00:43:18,482
See, I was looking
at these--these accounts,
730
00:43:18,551 --> 00:43:20,620
you know, raising money.
731
00:43:20,689 --> 00:43:22,103
- I wanna see like--
732
00:43:22,172 --> 00:43:24,310
I'm hoping--I'm hoping
we get enough money, man,
733
00:43:24,379 --> 00:43:25,689
so we can get me
a lawyer so I can
734
00:43:25,758 --> 00:43:27,137
have a little fucking canteen.
735
00:43:27,206 --> 00:43:28,620
Like, I hope some money
comes in.
736
00:43:28,689 --> 00:43:31,206
Hopefully people will
fucking see the page.
737
00:43:31,275 --> 00:43:33,379
Like, listen, can I tell you
something, though, Kristen?
738
00:43:33,448 --> 00:43:35,793
Once the people see
the GoFundMe page on there,
739
00:43:35,862 --> 00:43:37,896
we're gonna have the people
that think I'm innocent
740
00:43:37,965 --> 00:43:39,551
that are gonna donate.
741
00:43:39,620 --> 00:43:41,586
And then we're gonna have the
weirdos that think I did it.
742
00:43:41,655 --> 00:43:42,689
They're gonna donate.
743
00:43:42,758 --> 00:43:44,034
Like, you know
what I'm saying?
744
00:43:44,103 --> 00:43:45,413
Like, do you know,
like Batman and Joke--
745
00:43:45,482 --> 00:43:46,689
- You said the weirdos?
The weirdos for what?
746
00:43:46,758 --> 00:43:48,344
- You know, listen,
you know, like--
747
00:43:48,413 --> 00:43:49,931
you know,
like Batman and Joker?
748
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:51,620
We're gonna have the weirdos
that like Joker and shit.
749
00:43:51,689 --> 00:43:54,206
They're gonna fucking, like--
like, they're gonna be like,
750
00:43:54,275 --> 00:43:55,448
oh, I'm gonna fucking donate.
751
00:43:55,517 --> 00:43:57,965
You know what I'm saying?
752
00:43:58,034 --> 00:44:00,517
- He's got--I mean,
it's just crazy.
753
00:44:00,586 --> 00:44:03,000
I was looking at these--
these accounts.
754
00:44:03,068 --> 00:44:04,448
I mean, it's your money.
755
00:44:04,517 --> 00:44:07,103
I don't care what
you donate your money to.
756
00:44:07,172 --> 00:44:10,655
But it's--it's just all women.
757
00:44:10,724 --> 00:44:13,482
It's all women.
758
00:44:13,551 --> 00:44:18,689

that's all he's ever wanted.
763

It's so much easier
to be genuine and honest
764
00:44:33,862 --> 00:44:37,275

You know?

00:44:38,793 --> 00:44:40,620
And I hate that for him.
767
00:44:42,827 --> 00:44:47,448
I hate that at--that at his
age, that he still does that.
768
00:44:47,517 --> 00:44:49,724

he's a good looking man.
