AUSTIN, Texas—The murder trial of a woman accused of gunning down rising pro cyclist Anna Moriah Wilson and fleeing the country began with Texas prosecutors telling jurors they would hear Wilson’s final screams and the shots that killed her.
Kaitlin Armstrong, 35, has pleaded not guilty to murder and faces up to 99 years in prison in the May 2022 slaying of Wilson, a competitive gravel and mountain bike racer. Wilson had been shot in the head and chest when she was found at a friend’s home before a race that she was among the favorites to win.
