In the shadowy corners of Southwest Florida, where the sun-soaked streets of Cape Coral give way to quiet neighborhoods, a darkness was quietly taking shape... one that would eventually erupt into a series of crimes so brutal, so senseless, that the entire state would be left stunned. This is the story of Wade Wilson (not Deadpool), a man whose trail of violence unfolded over a matter of hours yet left wounds that continue to haunt families, investigators, and a shaken community.
This week, we’re diving into the chilling events of October 2019... the sudden disappearances, the terrifying phone calls, the eerie social media posts, and the moments where authorities realized they weren’t dealing with impulsive chaos, but with something far more calculated. Two women, Kristine Melton and Diane Ruiz, crossed paths with Wilson in separate encounters that would end in tragedy, revealing a pattern of manipulation, rage, and escalating brutality.
As we unravel this case, we’ll explore the timeline of his crimes, the disturbing background that shaped him, and the investigation that ultimately brought him to justice. This is a story of fear, heartbreak, and an unflinching look at a killer hidden in plain sight. Welcome to the case of Wade Wilson.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
