Kaitlin Armstrong has been handed a 90-year prison sentence for the murder of professional cyclist Anna Moriah “Mo” Wilson.
After several hours of deliberation on Friday, the jury reached the sentencing decision, which also included a $10,000 fine.
This sentence follows a guilty verdict for first-degree murder delivered by the jury in less than three hours the day before, ABC News reports.
Wilson, a 25-year-old emerging gravel racer, was discovered with multiple gunshot wounds at a friend’s residence in Austin, Texas, on May 11, 2022, in what police initially characterized as a targeted homicide.
Kaitlin Armstrong, a 35-year-old yoga instructor from Texas, was apprehended in Costa Rica after a 43-day manhunt and subsequently charged with first-degree murder in connection with Wilson’s tragic death.
At one point, Wilson was romantically involved with Colin Strickland, who was then the boyfriend of Armstrong and a fellow professional cyclist.
Wilson was discovered shot hours after a meeting with Strickland in Austin, according to the police.
