Wade Wilson, who recently faced the death penalty for the 2019 homicide case of two Cape Coral women, Kristine Melton and Diane Ruiz, has transformed his looks by engraving very unusual tattoos all over his face.
During his arrest, Wade only had tattoos on his neck, which was quite ordinary for an American person to have, and it did upgrade his personality at the time.
Some time back, one of his victims’ best friends, Sailor, testified during a court trial that when she met Wade for the first time at the bar, she found him absolutely friendly and charming.
According to Sailor, Wade initiated a conversation, introducing himself as JR, and had no tattoos on his face at the time. She witnessed, “Everybody was cheerful, intoxicated. There was nothing scary.” But over the years since his arrest in 2019, Wade’s looks have drastically changed.
While attending a court trial in 2024, his personality appeared quite scary. He had a skeleton smile tattoo around his lips and left cheek and smaller swastika tattoos on his face.
Sources report that Wade Wilson urged for make-up to cover his tattoos during court trial but showed up with a natural look, but why?
A month ago, Court TV reported that Wade Wilson’s attorney brought up the issue regarding Wade’s face art in the court during jury selection.
It was said that he initially requested makeup to hide his tattoos, which made his appearance scary, but then he chose not to wear it.
Well, the exact reason for doing it is still a matter of question. However, people seem to be contemplating it in another way, maybe to create obstacles in his trial.
Some 19 days ago, somebody posted a post on reddit titled, ‘Could Accused Mu*derer Wade Wilson’s Face Tattoos Influence a Jury?‘
Well, many Reddit users agreed with the given perspective to some extent, as one wrote, ‘All signs point to ‘yes.’ Likewise, another commented, ”I think he was trying to stall the trial asking for the makeup.” But whatever he did doesn’t matter now, as the jury has already approved his capital punishment.
