48 Hours Capturing Moriah Wilson’s Killer Airs November 23 2024 on CBS
In the upcoming episode of 48 HOURS, titled “Capturing Moriah Wilson’s Killer,” viewers will be taken on a gripping journey through the investigation of a tragic murder that rocked the cycling community. The episode airs on Saturday, November 23, 2024, on CBS, with streaming available on Paramount+.
Moriah Wilson, a talented cyclist, arrived in Austin, Texas, to prepare for the Gravel Locos bike race but met a devastating end when she was found shot multiple times. Her close friend discovered her lifeless body, prompting an urgent 911 call. Despite attempts to save her through CPR, it was too late.
As the investigation unfolded, suspicion quickly turned towards Kaitlin Armstrong, the prime suspect. Security footage showed a black Jeep SUV, registered to Armstrong, passing by the scene shortly after Wilson’s friend had dropped her off. Armstrong’s connection to the case deepened when it was revealed that she had been in a romantic relationship with Colin Strickland, a fellow professional cyclist. Strickland, who had previously dated Wilson, cooperated with investigators, providing insights into the escalating jealousy Armstrong felt over his relationship with Wilson.
Armstrong’s volatile behavior, fueled by jealousy, became a key focus. A disturbing tip from a friend revealed that Armstrong had even threatened to harm Wilson over the situation. Authorities acted swiftly, arresting Armstrong on an old warrant, but soon discovered that she had fled the country. U.S. Marshals Damien Fernandez and Emir Perez took over the case and tracked Armstrong to Costa Rica, where she had used her sister’s passport to escape. The Marshals’ investigation took them to Santa Teresa, Costa Rica, where Armstrong had been hiding under an alias.
In an innovative move, the Marshals placed an ad for a yoga instructor, a skill Armstrong was known to have, which eventually led to a breakthrough. As they closed in on their target, Armstrong’s capture became a race against time.
48 HOURS: Capturing Moriah Wilson’s Killer promises an intense and emotional look at the investigation, culminating in an international manhunt for justice. Tune in for this captivating episode on November 23, 2024, to witness how a tragic murder case unfolded and how justice was pursued across borders.
