Kaitlin Armstrong, 35, tried desperately to avoid accountability for gunning down pro cyclist Anna Moriah Wilson in May 2022. The Austin woman fled to Costa Rica, got a new nose, and changed her hair. All of her efforts were in vain. American officials caught the fugitive with help from Costa Ri.
Austin, TX – The Austin woman accused of killing world class cyclist Anna Moriah Wilson May 11 has been captured in Costa Rica. The U.S. Marshals Office of International Operations, Homeland Security Investigations, and the Department of State Diplomatic Security Service, working with authorities in Costa Rica, located and arrested Kaitlin Marie Armstrong June 29 at a hostel on Santa Teresa Beach in Provincia de Puntarenas. Armstrong, 34, will be deported and returned to the U.S. Members of the U.S. Marshals-led Lone Star Fugitive Task Force and Homeland Security Investigations recently discovered that Armstrong, using a fraudulent passport, had boarded United Airlines Flight 1222 from Newark International Airport at 5:09 p.m. EST on May 18 and arrived in San Jose, Costa Rica, at 8:27 p.m. EST. “The Marshals Service elevated the Kaitlin Armstrong investigation to major case status early in this investigation, which likely played a key role in her capture after a 43-day run,” said
