'Pure evil in the flesh': Well-known felon 'massacres' three fishing buddies in Frostproof, sheriff says

FROSTPROOF, Fla. - A 26-year-old man with 230 felony charges to his name is behind bars and accused of brutally murdering three fishing friends in Frostproof, the sheriff announced Wednesday. Two other suspects were arrested, and officials said it all stemmed from an argument over a truck.

On Wednesday morning, Sheriff Grady Judd announced three people had been arrested in the Friday night murders of 23-year-old Damion Tillman, 30-year-old Keven Springfield, and 27-year-old Brandon Rollins.

The suspects were identified as 26-year-old Tony “TJ” Wiggins, his girlfriend, 27-year-old Mary Whittemore, and his brother, 21-year-old Robert Wiggins.

Judd said TJ alone has a criminal history of 230 felony charges, and has regularly been arrested from the time he was 12 years old.

"I didn't stutter. He has 230 charges in his arrest history. Fifteen convictions and two times to state prison at only 26," Judd said. "He's a thug, he's a criminal. He's pure evil in the flesh. He's wild and he's out of control."

Before the triple murder, Robert had one misdemeanor arrest and Mary had no prior criminal arrests.

You’re confusing hard core criminal rednecks with preppers. Two wildly different groups.

Let’s hope he receives the death penalty. With his long record, he was already a menace to society. Instead of walking around free, he should’ve been sitting in a prison cell. Then these three young men would still be alive.

The killer’s brother and girlfriend sound just as guilty. The three of them were coldhearted enough to go out to eat after the murders.

Watching the one victim’s father cry was heartbreaking. Hope the families see justice done.

Well, the killers look exactly the way I pictured they would look, except that I didn’t figure that one would be female.

They don’t care, their paychecks still clear.

I work with someone who knows these people and they shared the following motives - One of the men murdered had bought a truck from one of the killers and never finished paying for it. Another one of the men killed had an affair with the female suspect who was in a relationship with one of the killers.

Yeah, I know.
I based my wrong assumption on only one instance I saw where a poster said they were black and took issue with some comment that was made.
No, I don’t remember who, nor I would I bring them up anyway if I did.

If your coworker is right, what a loss... Killed in cold blood, all over a truck and a girl.
