Career
Wilsoe was born on 11 April 1943 on Curaçao. He worked as a history teacher before turning to politics.
Wilsoe was Gezaghebber of Curaçao from 1988 to 1994. From October 2010 until 2012 he served as Minister of Justice for Pueblo Soberano (PS) in the cabinet of Prime Minister Gerrit Schotte. In the October 2012 general elections Wilsoe obtained a seat in the Estates of Curaçao.
In September 2016 several pages of criminal proceedings of the Curaçaoan public prosecution service leaked out, which revealed Wilsoe to be a suspect of involvement with the murder of Pueblo Soberano leader Helmin Wiels. Curaçaoan media had earlier reported Wilsoe to be a suspect, which the public prosection service had always refused to confirm. Wilsoe responded by saying the accusations "left him cold" and that he would not return to the Estates, while retaining his seat.
