Here’s the latest I can summarize from recent reports:
Wade Wilson, often called the "Deadpool Killer," was convicted in Florida for the murders of Kristine Melton and Diane Ruiz in October 2019 and received two death sentences in 2024. He remains on Florida’s death row, with appeals ongoing as of early 2026. Sources note his case and sentencing have been covered by multiple outlets and a 2026 documentary release is associated with the story.[2][3][6]
As of May 2026, his status is that of a death-row inmate in Florida with active appeals before the Florida Supreme Court. Some outlets mention ongoing filings and updates related to his post-conviction process.[5][2]
Public coverage of his case has included documentary and media features, including a Paramount+ documentary released in 2026 and various news roundups that track court proceedings and final appeals.[1][4][2]
