GUILTY TX - Moriah Wilson, 25, prized cyclist, fatally shot before race, Austin, 11 May 2022 #2

I found this also. Seems like if they feel like they can prove it - they could tack on a slew of other charges.

Or they could be served concurrently, as far as I know.

Bond for Kaitlin Armstrong, accused of killing pro cyclist Anna Moriah Wilson, set at $3.5 million​

Armstrong was on the run for 43 days before authorities found her in Costa Rica earlier this week.

I wonder if she has found a lawyer yet, or if she will start out with a court-appointed lawyer.

 

[Sundog]

I laughed out loud when I read that she had to surrender her passport. WTH?

Bond on someone who already fled once?

I'm sure Daddy is already getting that bond payment together.

If she flees again, I'm going to have an aneurysm.

I'm not sure her parents have the means to put forth that bond payment. There will also be lawyer costs. Maybe KA can sell some of her real estate holdings (if she actually has them) or rental properties if that is the case, and raise enough money for the percentage of the bond payment she needs. Or maybe they can be put up as collateral in lieu of cash.

Hope this works.

Well, at least CS might feel safe between 8 pm and 6 am, KA's new curfew time.

I don’t see her as the type to use a public defender. I think she’ll get family help added to her own resources to get a top attorney.

It gets me angry to picture her out and about in Austin from 8 am to 8 pm.

I bet a private defense attorney will take her case pretty quickly because it’s such a high profile case and they’ll want to represent her just for the publicity alone.

Right, they might do it pro bono.

 

[Sundog]

I’m thinking the same thing. Federal.

Yes, the federal charges related to the fraudulent passport might come into play here regarding bond, etc.

Right, because she certainly would abide by all the terms of...nah, never mind.

 

[Gypsy Road]

Once she gets an attorney and is back on US soil - it’ll be very interesting to see what the prosecution has in evidence and discovery. I hope they have video of her going into the house Mo was staying in because I betting you she will try to pin this all on CS even though police have said he is not a suspect.

 

[Sundog]

Right! And would she be allowed to retrieve her things from Colin's, assuming he hasn't thrown them out? They may have joint furniture, aside from her personal items. Would she just ... obtain a job at an Austin yoga studio? Most likely not! And doubtful any mortgage company/bank would hire her after all of this. She's going to need income.

She would probably start her own business online, under an LLC name? Teaching yoga or doing the kind of work her sister does online. She wouldn't have to use her name online. My sense is that KA is very entrepreneurial and will find a way to make a living if she stays out on bond. Although it might be hard to do yoga with a GPS on your ankle.

 

[Sundog]

She could maybe stay at her sister's place. She already has her passport, she may as well take her house too. Besides, isn't sis living at the "hippie wellness retreat" now? JMO

Don't know if CA gave up her Austin residence when she moved to the Haven in New York state. Also, CA may have been renting. Wonder if CA rented one of KA's properties.

 

[Sundog]

I think yes. Her father probably got things going as soon as he knew of the arrest on June 29.

I assume they've probably been working on identifying and findingn a good attorney for KA since the arrest warrant was first issued. Not necessarily that a decision had been made, but some preliminary inquiries, so if that is the case, then they could have acted quickly once the Costa Rica arrest was made.

 

[minneolo]

Sheesh. I keep being just plain wrong about this case (presuming the Inside Edition CA and KA passports is accurate)

How is it that LE didn’t (couldn’t?) immediately scan the passenger lists for CA knowing that:
+ KA resembles CA strongly
+ KA’s last known location was LaGuardia - no more than 90 minutes from where her sister was currently living
+ CA applied for a new drivers’ license

I know that LE requires a warrant to look at passenger manifests, but I am surprised that they wouldn’t have been able to initially search for any “Armstrong” or at least a “C or K Armstrong” more quickly

She may be safer staying in jail...

Maybe she'll hole up in Lockhart, where she may have a financial interest in a travel trailer?

That's actually interesting, because while I think at one point I read that that was a joint endeavor between them, how joint? On paper legally, or just that they had an understanding that she'd do the books and website and he'd perform other aspects, and because they shared the same house, did she actually get paid a salary or did they just jointly reap the benefits of a sale?

She could start an Only Fans page. Half joking, but there are sick people out there who would pay to join her page.

As a side note, I was sitting by the pool the other day with my GF’s and we were all looking at and comparing our tan feet lol. We all wear the same size shoe and we started trying on each other’s flip flops. One of my friends piped in and told us about a site where women take pictures of their feet and charge a fee for people to view them! I about died, but it really exists! There are all sorts of ways KA could generate an income. Doubtful though it would be substantial.

Does she own her properties with Colin or anyone else?

Maybe, but I don’t think anyone grieving Moriah is the type to hurt her, or take justice into their own hands. I’m envisioning her bicycling and sipping latte and having a grand old time.
