TX - Moriah Wilson, 25, Cyclist Fatally Shot Before Race, Austin, 2022 *arrest* #8

[BrownRice]

“Texas police are hunting for a 34-year-old yoga teacher accused of shooting dead the leading U.S. gravel cyclist, dubbed the 'winningest woman in America', because she'd had a brief relationship with her boyfriend.

Kaitlin Armstrong has not been seen since May 13 - two days after the murder of Moriah Wilson, 25 who was found covered in blood at a friend's home in East Austin on May 11.

An arrest warrant has been issued for Armstrong, a yoga teacher, who remains on the run and has deleted all her social media accounts.

Armstrong's boyfriend Colin Strickland, also a professional cyclist, had a brief romantic relationship with Wilson in October when he and his girlfriend of three years were on a break.

He and Armstrong got back together shortly after his fling with Wilson but his girlfriend only found out about the one-week dalliance in January. “

A Texas yoga instructor is standing trial for the murder of a rising star in the cycling world who she thought was having an affair with her boyfriend. Kaitlin Armstrong's trial got underway in Austin. She is accused of shooting cyclist Moriah Wilson to death. In his opening statement to the jury, the prosecutor says Armstrong stood over the victim and shot her in the heart. However, Armstrong’s lawyer says his client is innocent and claims that the prosecution does not have a witness who saw Armstrong allegedly commit a murder. Inside Edition’s Les Trent has more.

Alex must not be back from his weekend. He isn't tweeting this morning. He seems far more thorough than most of the others.

Court begins, early!

Back in court for the continuation of #KaitlinArmstrong ‘s trial.

A new state exhibit. An iPhone (on airplane mode) and phone case.

Portnoy now referencing the GrayKey Report. He says the device is an iPhone 13 Pro, but the device name is iPhone 11 Pro. Last week, Portnoy described how the iPhone device name can be changed by users, and transfer over at times. Portnoy reads the account owner as ‘Kaitlin.’

Looks to be about 17 GB of data were extracted from this phone - Portnoy described it as ‘limited.’

Court description: many familiar faces from the last two weeks are back in the courtroom - media, observing attorneys. Jurors appear to be looking at the exhibits displayed on the monitors. I can’t see Armstrong’s face, but she’s facing forward, potentially looking at a monitor.

Another state exhibit. Portnoy identifies it as a phone belonging to Colin Strickland. GrayKey report for this phone being displayed. Over 219 GB extracted from this phone.

GPS fixes data is more abundant. Portnoy also extracts data from Moriah's Macbook. Portnoy says there was data on it that appeared relevant but nothing stood out. Moving on to S3 device, iPhone 13 Pro, that belongs to #KaitlinArmstrong. Oddly, device name is iPhone 11 Pro.


@MillsHayesTV

Next iPhone 13 Pro is up. This phone belongs to Colin Strickland. GrayKey Progress Report. Received full file system extraction. He answers a phone call from #KaitlinArmstrong on May 11, 2022 at 4:24 PM, last 3:04 mins. Armstrong calls again at 6:24 pm, not answered.

Portnoy is going over the call log from Strickland’s phone. Prosecution asks Portnoy if the records show that there was an active call, beginning at 9:07 p.m. on May 11, 2022. Portnoy confirms.


10:53 AM · Nov 13, 2023

Now seeing a report showing contacts that were saved in Strickland’s phone. Interaction status shows if a number or contact was blocked. We see one row with a ‘blocked’ status, and the associated email appearing to belong to Wilson. Portnoy says ‘Christine Wall’ is not blocked.

Now seeing an entire spreadsheet of blocked contacts from Strickland’s phone. This shows 98 contacts. We previously heard a figure in the 70s during Strickland’s time on the witness stand.

Now seeing photos of a computer Portnoy says belonged to Armstrong. Portnoy touches back on the encryption, which interfered with their ability to extract data.

Court TV just reported that the state could rest today. If so, there must not be many more witnesses other than Christine. I am soooo waiting to hear of her testimony.
