When a convicted double murderer raises over $70,000 on GoFundMe, the story becomes bigger than the crime. In this episode, we examine the case of Wade Wilson, the so-called “Deadpool Killer,” whose viral mugshot sparked obsession, donations, and the rise of the “Wade Wives”—while the two women he murdered were pushed aside.

Through this episode, we explore the psychology behind funding a killer, the role of social media in glamorizing violence, and how true crime culture can blur the line between accountability and obsession.
