What does "wantonness" mean?

To be honest, I'm not sure, but I think it kind of means pointlessness, gratuitousness, and completeness, all together. The adjective I think is almost always used in the phrase "wanton destruction", which is destruction that is pointless, gratuitous, and complete. That's what it means to me anyway.

You will need to give us the word in context, because that's not a "real" English word, but instead a made up slang word.
