Kaitlin Armstrong, 35, was convicted by a Texas jury Thursday in the 2022 shooting death of professional cyclist Anna Moriah Wilson and now faces up to life in prison at sentencing.
— A Texas jury on Thursday convicted a woman of murder in the May 2022 shooting death of rising professional cyclist Anna Moriah Wilson in a case that led investigators on a 43-day international search for the killer.
Kaitlin Armstrong, 35, faces up to life in prison when she is sentenced later Thursday. Prosecutors said Armstrong gunned down Wilson, 25, in a jealous rage. Wilson, who was also known as « Mo, » had briefly dated Armstrong’s boyfriend several months earlier. Wilson had gone swimming and to a meal with him the day she was killed.
Jurors deliberated for about two hours after two weeks of testimony. Wilson’s family and friends — including the friend who found her body the night she was killed — hugged and cried in the courtroom after the verdict was read.
Kaitlin Armstrong’s sister sat next to their mother crying.
