Tattooed double murderer Wade Wilson is fighting to keep the jail phone calls between him and a female fan private, according to a lawsuit filed in Florida's Lee County civil court.

Wilson, 30, and supporter Jesse Tehonica are listed as plaintiffs in the case against the Lee County Sheriff's Office and the State Attorney's Office filed Sept. 20, court records indicate.

According to Newsweek, lawyers for Wilson and Tehonica are arguing the pair's recently released phone calls were unlawfully published because they do not qualify as public records.

Tehonica and Wilson are asking a judge to put a stop to the release of any more phone calls and are also seeking an emergency temporary injunctive relief, the outlet reported, citing court documents.

As part of the lawsuit, attorneys sent cease and desist letters to LCSO Chief Legal Counsel Abbi Jo Smith and Chief Assistant State Attorney Richard Montecalvo, demanding no further calls be made publicly available.

The LCSO denied their involvement in the publishing of the calls, according to Newsweek.

The release of the calls, estimated to be from August, have allegedly caused Tehonica to be "the subject of multiple incidents of cyber intimidation in online social media forums," the filing states.

"While I understand these conversations were recorded, I never thought they would be used to bully, harass and intimidate me, but instead for the security of the jail," Tehonica claimed in the suit.

"These phone calls have been released through the YouTube account Phone Calls From Prison, and their main objective is to defame me and my character because of my beliefs and opinions to support Wade and his fight for justice. I have been relentlessly bullied online, received numerous threats and have been consistently harassed through the social media platforms TikTok, YouTube, Instagram and Facebook."

"These online threats have been made as comments on social media posts and direct messages on these social media platforms, including comments that people 'will be coming' for me, making statements that 'you are done,' and hiring someone to follow me and trying to identify where I work. There have also been online posts saying I have a 'death wish' that implies someone is going to harm me."

In August, a judge sentenced Wilson to death for the brutal 2019 murders of two Cape Coral, Florida women, 35-year-old Kristine Melton and 43-year-old Diane Ruiz.

Throughout his trial, attorneys for Wilson petitioned for two life sentences.
