Convicted double-murderer Wade Wilson was seen on police body camera footage driving away from a police car while shirtless the same day he brutally killed his two female victims.
Dubbed the 'Deadpool Killer' as he shares a name with the Marvel character, 30-year-old Wilson was convicted ofslaughtering two Florida womenduring an hours-long crimespreeon the same night in October 2019 in Cape Coral, with his appearance drawing widespread interest in his case.
On the day of the killings, Wilson - who faces a potential life sentence in prison August 27 - was stopped by police after they'd received a call from ex-girlfriend Melissa Montanez after she said he attacked her at the spa she runs and stolen her car.
In the clip - which was shown in court on June 11 - Wilson is found without a shirt on in Montanez's car outside a local restaurant and tells an office that he was waiting there for her. He asks why he's being stopped.
The officer, after claiming he'll explain further when his partner shows up and reminding Wilson he's on probation, says: 'I'm going to detain you, not arrest you right now, okay? I can't have any problems, you understand me?'

Eventually, the officer tells him was going to be arrested 'because of the battery this morning'. Wilson denies that he attacked Montanez.
The officer asks Wilson to turn off the car and turn over the keys and tells him to stay in the vehicle until they can obtain backup. Wilson simply restarts the car and drives away.
The officer can be heard saying: 'Don't go anywhere, don't do it'.
Wilson was convicted over the murders of Kristine Melton, 35, and Diane Ruiz, 43, who prosecutors said he killed 'for the sake of killing.'
He was also convicted of a number of charges during an hours-long crime spree, including the battery of Montanez, 41, the burglary and theft of two homes, and the grand theft auto of Melton's car.
He began on the afternoon of October 6, 2019, when he met Melton at a live music bar and went home with her.
Wilson strangled her to death inside her home in Cape Coral, Florida the next day, where her body was found inside.
The same day, Ruiz was reported missing after she was seen being asked for directions by Wilson while on her walk to work.

He was driving a car he stole from Melton's home after he murdered her, which Ruiz got into before she was also strangled to death.
In testimony from Wilson's father, it was said that he went onto 'run her over until she looked like spaghetti.' Ruiz's body was found three days later in a field behind a Sam's Club.
The 30-year-old killer also drove to Fort Myers in Melton's car and attacked Montanez, his ex-girlfriend.
Wilson was arrested on October 8, where he remained behind bars without bail until he was found guilty of murder this month.
Wilson added a number of tattoos since he was arrested, and his face includes several Swatika's, menacing Joker-like mouth tattoos, and a neck tattoo reading: 'Bred for war.'
Jurors voted to send him to death row, with Wilson seen in courtroom footage appearing emotionless as he learned his fate.
Wilson's father Steven Testasecca, 46, said in his testimony that Wilson had been adopted as a baby because he and the killer's mother were teenagers when they had him.
He said his contact with his son had been 'sporadic' since they reconnected when he turned 18, but said Wilson reached out to him on October 7 after he killed Melton and Ruiz.

'He said, 'I'm a killer,'' Testasecca said, adding that he initially believed his son was merely telling him a 'story.'
'He's a good storyteller,' he testified. Later that day, after another phone call, he said it dawned on him that his son was telling the truth.
Testasecca said his son then went into gory details of how he killed the two women, including how he choked Melton after she fell asleep.
Ruiz was also still breathing when she was repeatedly ran over by Wilson, Testasecca said he was told.
'He was excited,' he said. 'He was wanting me to feel the same way he was feeling... he would've done it again.'
Wilson fled Florida in the stolen car and drove to Ohio, where he broke into the home of Fanny and Kent Amlin, a retired couple.
He was reportedly found inside the home with a number of White Claw alcoholic beverages.
In heartbreaking victim impact statements following Wilson's trial, Melton's cousin Samantha Catomer said she was a quick witted and kind person who dreamed of becoming a mother.

'Kristine will never experience motherhood, a role she was born to play,' she said.
Zane Romero, 19, one of Ruiz's two sons, said that his mother was murdered just days before he was set to debut in his school marching band, which he said she was looking forward to.
'I never got to see her in the crowd,' Romero said. 'My mom will never get to see me get married.'
Ruiz, a bartender, was remembered by her colleagues as 'the heartbeat of the bar' where she worked, who never missed a shift for over five years.
'She always had everybody's back. She just had that personality that was really magnifying. She has this really loud laugh that you could hear it like a mile away,' she said.
