A Texas jury in November found Kaitlin Armstrong, an Austin woman, guilty of murdering professional cyclist Anna Moriah "Mo" Wilson in a jealous rage after Wilson went on a date with Armstrong's boyfriend, professional cyclist Colin Strickland, in May 2022.

Prosecutors argued that Armstrong, 37, shot 25-year-old Wilson after Strickland, 36, dropped the cyclist off at a friend's Austin apartment where Wilson was staying while visiting Texas for a race.

When police initially arrested Armstrong on an unrelated warrant, she sold her Jeep tied to the crime scene, got plastic surgery and fled to Costa Rica while using her sister's passport. U.S. Marshals eventually caught up with her on Santa Teresa Beach.
