Texas Yoga Teacher Gets Nearly a CENTURY in Prison for Elite Cyclist’s Murder

A Texas yoga teacher convicted of murdering an elite cyclist last May in a jealous rage before fleeing the country for more than a month was sentenced Friday to 90 years in prison.

Kaitlin Armstrong, 35, was found guilty of first-degree murder on Thursday in connection with the May 2022 slaying of Anna Moriah Wilson. Throughout the two-week trial, prosecutors argued that Armstrong ambushed the 25-year-old Wilson at her friend’s Austin home and fatally shot her three times, including once in the heart.

The murder occurred after Wilson went swimming with Armstrong’s ex, Colin Strickland. Wilson had briefly dated fellow cyclist Strickland in October 2021, and prosecutors say Armstrong secretly monitored their messages for months. After the slaying, Armstrong took drastic steps to disappear, including selling her car and spending thousands on plastic surgery after she fled to Costa Rica using her sister’s passport. Her disappearance spurred an international manhunt for 43 days before she was captured in June 2022.
