From within the first 16 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: twenty four hours of this case, they had decided that 17 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: Caitlyn Armstrong is a crazy, jealous person who, in a 18 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: fit of rage, murdered miss Wilson. The whole case against 19 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: Kate Armstrong is predicated on a deeply misogynistic view of her. 20 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: M I wonder if the murder weapon being in her 21 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: control at her domicile after the murder, and a car 22 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 1: looking just like hers going around and round and round 23 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: the victim's apartment just before her murder, and likely GPS 24 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: and cell phone data showing that she was following Mariah 25 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: around the whole evening before she was murder What if 26 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: that has anything to do with it? Or maybe it 27 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: was her statement to a friend beforehand, I hate her 28 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 1: so much, I kill her. What if that hadn't anything 29 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: at all to do with it. Wow, But besides branding 30 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:46,679 Speaker 1: all the detectives, investigators and Texas Rangers as women haters 31 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: and the whole reason their client is behind bars is 32 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: because of a misogynistic woman hating investigation, he's got more. 33 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:01,240 Speaker 1: Take a listen to the defense lawyer, pretty good lawyer too, 34 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,959 Speaker 1: Rick Coefer speaking to our friends in NBC. So this 35 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: dark colored sut h, that's where the detective really wants 36 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: to start to hang this horrible crime on Klin Armstrong. 37 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 1: There's no evidence presented ever of a license plate on 38 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: this vehicle, of any description of an occupant of the vehicle, 39 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: Cooper said, that can to be Caitlin in the g 40 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: for one simple reason. You can't be in two places 41 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: at once. That's is kind of some simple maths. Simple math. Well, 42 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: I don't know that they taught math and law school. 43 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: But is he going to get away with this? Is 44 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: this lawyer again, pretty good lawyer, Rick Koefer actually able? 45 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 1: Is he able to convince a jury that it looks 46 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: like a duck, It walks like a duck, it quacks 47 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: like a duck, but it's not a duck. Take a 48 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: listen to more. You're saying that she wasn't in the 49 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 1: vicinity of the murder when the murder occurred, and you 50 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,119 Speaker 1: can prove it. I don't have to prove that that's 51 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: not just a simple mask, was an error, so that 52 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: maybe they let me put it in this way. It 53 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: implies that you have proof. I expect this the government's 54 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: own evidence will quit. Kaylen Armstrong. They just haven't looked 55 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: at it. Kaylin Armstrong is not guilty, and if this 56 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 1: case goes to trial, if the district attorney doesn't dismiss 57 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 1: it before trial, she will be found not guilty. I've 58 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:29,160 Speaker 1: got an all star panel to make sense of what 59 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 1: we know right now, including Dave matt with Crime onlam 60 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: with the very latest in the investigation.

You're going to prove she was somewhere else? 78 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,840 Speaker 1: Why not tell us, well, it's true, Nancy, As you know, 79 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: being the prosecutor dealing with defense attorneys, they're going to 80 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 1: attack the government's case. They're not going to almost never 81 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: present their own case, present their own evidence. They're just 82 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 1: going to attack what the government has and basically call 83 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: it a bunch of lies, but of some kind of conspiracy. 84 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: And that she was maybe perhaps on vacation like an 85 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: ordinary citizen down in Costa Rica, even though that she 86 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 1: traveled on false passports. Well, you know, some women like 87 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: to hide the fact they're getting plastic surgery. How about that? 88 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 1: And she really hit it. She was living in a 89 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 1: hostel on a bunk bed with other bunch of people 90 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 1: that didn't want to pay for a full on hotel. 91 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:36,119 Speaker 1: She was eating like beans out of a can. That's 92 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: going a long way to hide your nose. Job it is, 93 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: and it's gonna it's not gonna work out. Well, I mean, 94 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: hold on, let me go to brother under the skin 95 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: of the defense attorney Matthew Mangino, former district attorney form 96 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,680 Speaker 1: a parole board. I don't like that all of the 97 00:06:55,800 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 1: executioner's toll, highly respected lawyer Matthew him and Gino. You 98 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 1: see where this is going. But don't you love it? 99 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: When the defense or the defendant goes, I have an alibi, 100 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: I wasn't there, So you go, well where are you? 101 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: Where were you? I don't how to tell you that? 102 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: What just it doesn't even have you never talked to 103 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 1: a crazy person and they look sane and they just 104 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: it's all like gibberish coming out of their mouth. This 105 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: lawyer is a pretty good lawyer, this Kofer. But when 106 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: he gets put on the hot seat, which just one question, 107 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 1: I thought he lost credibility. I think, Nancy, when you 108 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: tried the case in the court of public opinion, which 109 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 1: is what he's doing right now. He's trying to put out, 110 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 1: you know, what he thinks are defects in the prosecution's case, 111 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: and he's doing a pretty good job of it too. 112 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: But you open yourself up to exactly what you're saying, well, well, 113 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 1: what's your alibi or what's your defense? And then you 114 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: want to back off and say, well, I don't have 115 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: to prove anything the prosecution has. Certainly the prosecution has 116 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: to prove the case beyond reasonable doubt. But if you're 117 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: going to open up this can of worms in the public, 118 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: then you better be prepared to provide some basis for 119 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: the allegations that you're making. Now, I think they've filed 120 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: some very interesting motions. The emotion to suppressed. Hey, hey, hey, 121 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: hold on, wait a minute, Wait a minute, Wait a minute. 122 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: I'm going to get into the emotions right now.

Take a 124 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: listen to our friends at k x A N attorneys 125 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: for an Austin woman accused of killing cyclist Mariah Wilson. 126 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 1: We're back in court today for the second day of 127 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: a pre trial hearing that began last week. Attorneys for 128 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,839 Speaker 1: Caitlin Armstrong filed what's called a Frank's motion. This is 129 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: a legal proceeding when a court is asked to determine 130 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: whether a police officer or a detective line or used 131 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 1: reckless disregard for the truth in pursuing an a rest warrant. 132 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: The judge is expected to issue a ruling on November ninth. 133 00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:00,599 Speaker 1: The Armstrong's attorneys are basically accusing the Austin police of 134 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: violating her constitutional rights, first by detaining her under false pretenses, 135 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 1: then not reading her her Miranda rights, then repeatedly ignoring 136 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,600 Speaker 1: her requests for an attorney, and they want a jury 137 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 1: to see none of that interrogation. You were also hearing 138 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: our friend at ABC, that was matt and Gutman. Okay, 139 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: so you've gotten this Frank's motion happening Matthew Mengino, which 140 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 1: essentially claims that a detective lied or used reckless disregard 141 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 1: for the truth in the investigation. And you have a 142 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: claim that she was arrested under false pretenses. Now, remember 143 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: she was arrested for an outstanding warrant. That outstanding warrant 144 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,839 Speaker 1: was based on the fact that if you want to 145 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: believe some video in a nail shop, wasn't that what 146 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 1: it was? She went and had her nails done, Jackie, 147 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of beauty treatments. Oh excuse me, botox, Yes, botox, 148 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,839 Speaker 1: and so there's a several hundred dollars bill, maybe six 149 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: seven hundred dollars. She takes out one credit card and says, 150 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,439 Speaker 1: let me go get my other credit card out of 151 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: the car. I want to use it instead. So the 152 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:14,559 Speaker 1: staff says, surego. She left, got in her car and left. 153 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: So there was an outstanding warrant for her. That's why 154 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: she was initially brought in. Of course, the cops also 155 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 1: believe that she was the killer that she killed twenty 156 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,839 Speaker 1: five year old Mariah Wilson. But bringing her in on 157 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,679 Speaker 1: that open warrant was absolutely or brand jump in. You're 158 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 1: in the Marshall Service, absolutely above board. You can arrest 159 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 1: somebody on an open warrant. You absolutely can't whether the 160 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: warrant turns out to be valid or not. Well, they 161 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,199 Speaker 1: had her wrong dB on there. That's not going to 162 00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: defeat the warrant because they had a d OB wrong. No, 163 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 1: they had they were It was perfectly proper for them 164 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:01,839 Speaker 1: to bring her in on that warrant. Oh and the 165 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:08,479 Speaker 1: statements that she made during that time can be used. Absolutely. 166 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,599 Speaker 1: If she defense, it's going to want to suppress it. 167 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 1: But yeah, if she had been given her Miranda rights 168 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:20,559 Speaker 1: since she understood them. Speaking of problems potential legal problems 169 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: with Caitlin Armstrong's statement, take a listen to our friends 170 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 1: at Fox seven and KVUE. Armstrong's attorneys are asking a 171 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 1: judge to throw out some evidence in this case. They 172 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: say that police lied and violated Armstrong's rights. A pre 173 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,199 Speaker 1: trial hearing in the Caitlyn Armstrong case coming to a 174 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 1: closed Monday. Armstrong's attorneys are asking Travis County Judge Brenda 175 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 1: Kennedy to toss evidence in the case, arguing that an 176 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,319 Speaker 1: interview Austin Police detective Katie Connor had with Armstrong on 177 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 1: May twelfth was an illegal interrogation. Armstrong was never read 178 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,839 Speaker 1: her miranda rights and repeatedly asked for an attorney and 179 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 1: to leave the room. The state points out that Connor 180 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:05,559 Speaker 1: told Armstrong several times that she was free to leave, 181 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: and this was a pre trial motion where the defense 182 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: has filed two motions to suppress evidence before the trial begins. 183 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 1: And an Austin detective took the stand to answer questions 184 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: about an interview police had with Armstrong days before she 185 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 1: left the US. The lead homicide detective in the Moe 186 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 1: Wilson case was also asked questions, mostly from the defense. 187 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: A number of videos were shown today in the courtroom, 188 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 1: including the interview with the detective who interviewed Armstrong. They 189 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 1: also went over the arrest Affidavid. It's still unclear what 190 00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 1: exact evidence the defense is looking to suppress. Well, I 191 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:45,079 Speaker 1: can tell you that right now they want her statements suppressed. 192 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: That's what they're talking about. It's not unclear, it's very clear. 193 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:07,959 Speaker 1: Time stories with Nancy Grace Dave Matt Crime online dot 194 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: Com investigative reporter. On several occasions, detectives told her she 195 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: was free to leave. Is that true? Absolutely true? Five 196 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: different times they told her she was free to leave? 197 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 1: And what about Miranda? Do we know if they gave 198 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: her her Miranda rights? I find it very difficult to 199 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 1: believe that they did not. They did not. Apparently No, 200 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: this is I haven't actually seen the entire video of 201 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: what they're talking about, Nancy, but for all intents and purposes, 202 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: they did not Miranda as her at all. Okay, that's 203 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: going to be a problem if they very often you 204 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 1: will see them give the suspect a piece of paper 205 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 1: with the Miranda rights written on it, and the suspect 206 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 1: will sign them. But I've got to tell you, if 207 00:13:56,080 --> 00:14:01,079 Speaker 1: there are no Miranda rights, there is a plum. That's 208 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 1: the biggest problem. I say, jump in so, Nancy, yeah, 209 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 1: you know that is we're talking about fundamental constitutional rights. 210 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: If she is in a custodial interrogation, which means she's 211 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: not free to leave, and there's a question about that, 212 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: I understand, But if she's in a custodial interrogation in 213 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: which she's asked to leave or asked to speak to 214 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: an attorney, and she's never been mirandais you know the 215 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: landmark case Miranda versus Arizona. You have the right to 216 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 1: remain silent, you have the right to have counsel, and 217 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: anything you say can be used against you. If she 218 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: wasn't given those Miranda rights, and as you pointed out, 219 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: typically there's a written waiver in every case where someone 220 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 1: signs off saying they understand those rights. If that wasn't 221 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 1: done here, they're going to have a very difficult time 222 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: keeping any statement that she made in this case for trial. 223 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: You're absolutely correct, and I do not like admitting it. 224 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 1: But if there's no Miranda, there's no statement, then the 225 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 1: state has to figure out approved the case without her statement. 226 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: Maybe they can, maybe they can't. Seems like they've got 227 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: a lot of other hard evidence proving that she's the killer. 228 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 1: But do they We don't know everything that they've got. 229 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 1: Now take a listen to our friends at GMA. Attorneys 230 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: for Caitlin Armstrong say these newly released images from her 231 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: interrogation were part of any legal arrest and that they 232 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: raised serious concerns about the case. The photo is part 233 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: of newly filed court documents trying to suppress evidence and 234 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: obtained by ABC News. Armstrong's attorneys alleged that one day 235 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: after pro cyclist Mariah Wilson was found murdered in May, 236 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: the detective on the case took Armstrong into custody with 237 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: an illegal arrest warrant and constructed any illegal interrogation, claiming 238 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: they'd brought her in on a twenty eighteen charge for 239 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: allegedly failing to pay for botox, but then asked her 240 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: about Wilson's murder. The reality is, though, Matthew Mangina, you 241 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: can be brought in rightfully, legally on an outstanding warrant, 242 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: and you can be questioned about another incident. Well, yeah, 243 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: there's no question about that. You can be brought in 244 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 1: on a valid warrant, or even if you believe that 245 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: the valid warrant and it's not, you can still be 246 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: brought in and you can be questioned. But once you 247 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: get into that point where you're interrogating somebody and they're 248 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: not free to leave or they've asked for an attorney, 249 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: you need to make sure that they understand their miranda 250 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: rates before you do any further questioning, Well, there's no 251 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: question they did not give Miranda right because apparently Officer 252 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: Connor was in the process of starting Miranda then took 253 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 1: a call or went out of the room to speak 254 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: to someone can make it and never did it. That's 255 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: going to be a major, major problem. But I'm more 256 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: to beyond that. In my mind, that interview has been 257 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: ruled out. That's not coming in because Miranda was not 258 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 1: given unless there was a waiver, a written way that 259 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: she signed with Miranda on it, and she signs it. Yes, 260 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: I read it and I understand it. It's the only 261 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 1: way that that statement's going to be saved. I'm on 262 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 1: to the next step. The only thing I would say, Nancy, 263 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: you know, and I think that the state is going 264 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,360 Speaker 1: to try to prove that she was free to leave, 265 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 1: so she was not in custody. And if you're not 266 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 1: in custody, that's essential. You have to be in custody. Again, 267 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 1: I'm past that the statement's out. It's not coming in. 268 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: It's not coming in because they didn't give her Miranda. 269 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: They screwed up, and I'm putting it very mildly. They 270 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:38,439 Speaker 1: screwed up. They didn't give a murder suspect her Miranda rights. 271 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: I mean, it's just they might as well not even 272 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 1: argue it. It's over next Now, can we prove the 273 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: case without that statement? And I would submit that hub 274 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: l y E s they can. But now wait a minute, 275 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 1: Wait a minute, let's go forward to our cut one 276 00:17:56,080 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: O four our friends at News Nation listen. Austin police 277 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: filing a search warrant and discovered what's believed to be 278 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 1: the email address used by suspected murderer Caitlin Armstrong following 279 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 1: the shooting death of professional cyclist Mariah Wilson and police 280 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:19,120 Speaker 1: a Wilson had previously dated Armstrong's boyfriend, who helped police 281 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,639 Speaker 1: in the investigation and is not considered a suspect. Investigators 282 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 1: say this newly discovered email account was used while Armstrong 283 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,520 Speaker 1: was fleeing Austin, Texas. So I think the biggest thing 284 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 1: that's going to come out of this digital search warrant 285 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: which they got is really premeditation. Is what she did 286 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 1: reactionary to her killing Mariah Wilson? Or did she have 287 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,879 Speaker 1: a plan in place in the days for weeks prior 288 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,639 Speaker 1: to killing her. I think that's the biggest thing that 289 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 1: they're trying to establish with this. I think Strickland is 290 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 1: an interesting spot. I'm not certain that I think he 291 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,879 Speaker 1: played a direct role in the death of Mo Wilson. 292 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 1: I think that that's more going to fall on her sister, 293 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: Christine Armstrong. Okay, do I smell the word conspiracy? Is 294 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: somebody claiming that the boyfriend Colin Strickland or Kaitlin I 295 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 1: was strong sister aided and embedded, embedded before during, or 296 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 1: after the murtyr hold on, wait for it. Take a 297 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 1: listen to Tracy Wald or former CIA from our friends 298 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 1: in News Nation. I think what's going to go into 299 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 1: place is what did he know and did he try 300 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 1: to cover it up? For example, when he found out, 301 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: you know, the police had confiscated her phone and he 302 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: provided her with a new one. What did he know 303 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: and when did he know it? About when she was 304 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 1: making purchases at Walmart to buy the burner phone or 305 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: the prepaid debit cars. And I think that's what's going 306 00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:00,080 Speaker 1: to be important there. I really do not think that 307 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 1: he played a role in the murder itself. I think 308 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,200 Speaker 1: what it's going to come down to you is what 309 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 1: did he what role of any did he play in 310 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 1: sort of covering it up and helping her escape. I 311 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: do not think that he is going to face charges, 312 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:12,639 Speaker 1: and I do think he will get some kind of 313 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: a deal. Well, to get a deal, you have to 314 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: have a charge. Why would you have a deal with 315 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: the state if there's not a charge. I'm not running 316 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: down to the DA's office and say, hey, I want 317 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 1: straight probation and I'm going to tell you everything I 318 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 1: know about X, Y and Z. I've got to be 319 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 1: charged first before I cut a deal, which tells me 320 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 1: they may have enough to charge him with aiding a fugitive. 321 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 1: What about it? Dave mc joining me crime online dot 322 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: Com talking about the alleged cheating boyfriend columns Strickland. He 323 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 1: had a relationship, a romantic relationship with a world class 324 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 1: cyclists Mo Wilson, Mariah Wilson. Then he goes back to 325 00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:02,160 Speaker 1: his regular girlfriend, the yoga instruct term and he dallies. 326 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: Let me say, when Mariah comes back in town. According 327 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 1: to the state, Kaitlin Armstrong is incensed, stalks them all 328 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 1: day into the evening, and finally guns Mariah down. So what, 329 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: if anything, does the state believe the boyfriend Collins Strickland 330 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:25,160 Speaker 1: had to do with aiding and embedting his scorned girlfriend, Nancy. 331 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: What we do know is what you just pointed out 332 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: about the previous relationships and everything else. But you know, 333 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: one thing that's not being pointed out is that Strickland 334 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 1: actually has said that Armstrong was not a jealous type. 335 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: Right but on his cell phone he had Moe Wilson's 336 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: name changed to something else so that Armstrong wouldn't know 337 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 1: they were communicating. He went out of his way to 338 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,720 Speaker 1: lie to Armstrong about who he was with when he 339 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:58,880 Speaker 1: was with Armstrong. Well, you know, I hate to tear 340 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: up the liber of your universe, Dave mac, but he 341 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 1: ain't the first Sheep boyfriend, and he probably is not 342 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:10,159 Speaker 1: going to be the last. It's probably about I don't know, 343 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 1: what would you say, twenty thirty million guys cheap right 344 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 1: now as we're talking, And it's not a felony, sadly, 345 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:19,879 Speaker 1: but I'm trying to point out that he is claiming 346 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,720 Speaker 1: that Armstrong was not the jealous type. He's gone out 347 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: of his way to give those statements to police, but 348 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 1: everything else indicates that yes, she was, or he wouldn't 349 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: have been hiding it to such a degree. Now we 350 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 1: know that leading up to it that he was hiding 351 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 1: that he was out with her that night. But we 352 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 1: also know, well we believe Armstrong actually had a way 353 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: of tracking him using an app called Strava, so she 354 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 1: knew where Colin Strickland was that evening and where he 355 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 1: was down to the millimeter, you know, and that she 356 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: was in fact using Strava to find everywhere that they went. Yes, okay, 357 00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 1: I've got another thing. What about it? Everybody jump in 358 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 1: on this, especially you dotnor Sherry Schwartz for psychologists joining us. 359 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 1: You can find her at panther medication dot com and 360 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: she's the author of Criminal Behavior and Where Law and 361 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: Psychology intersect. Take a listen to our cut sixty six. 362 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 1: These are our friends at Fox seven A First look. 363 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 1: It accused murderer Caitlin Armstrong and custody in Costa Rica 364 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: after more than a month on the run. Her long 365 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 1: golden hair now shoulder length, and she also died her 366 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 1: hair to a darker brown color. Early in the case, 367 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:39,119 Speaker 1: Fox reported a Utah based investigator was looking at the 368 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: possibility Armstrong was using the identity of her brunette New 369 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 1: York based sister. Thirty four year old Armstrong flew into 370 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,640 Speaker 1: New York on May fourteenth, two days after being questioned 371 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 1: about the murder of her romantic rival, professional cyclist Anna 372 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: Mariah Wilson. Armstrong flew to Costa Rica from New Jersey 373 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: four days after she landed in or using a fraudulent passport. 374 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 1: Around that same time, Fox reported her sister registered for 375 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 1: a New York state driver's license. At this time, marshals 376 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 1: are not confirming that Armstrong used her sister's identity, only 377 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: telling Fox seven Austin that fraud and passport was very 378 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 1: particular her as far as physical descriptions that were closely matched. 379 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 1: Not only that, take a less outcut sixty nine seven, 380 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 1: Armstrong used a passport now the real identity of the 381 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 1: person who had that passport, were told was somebody who 382 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 1: closely physically resembled her. She continued using that alias well 383 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,440 Speaker 1: in Costa Rica, taking a bus going to yoga studios. 384 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:41,120 Speaker 1: This enabled authorities to establish a paper trail and eventually 385 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: close in on her. After hiding out for more than 386 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: a month, law enforcement found fugitive Caitlin Armstrong in a 387 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:52,399 Speaker 1: hostel on Costa Rica's Santa Teresa Beach, trying to build 388 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: a new life. She was getting really ready to establish 389 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: that next part of her career. Armstrong, a yoga instructor 390 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 1: wanted for murdering her romantic rival professional cyclists Anna Mariah Wilson, 391 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 1: in a fit of jealous rage, went to yoga studios 392 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 1: on the island, signing in by hand at at least 393 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,679 Speaker 1: one studio using the same alias she used to travel 394 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 1: to the country. This US Marshall's day was key. Once 395 00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 1: they developed that pattern, it really opened up things too. 396 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,440 Speaker 1: Daughter Sherry Schwartz, forensic psychologist. You know, when a cop 397 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 1: comes up behind me state patrol on the Interstate, I 398 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: don't take off at ninety mph. I may slow down, 399 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 1: I may tap my brakes a little bit. But my 400 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 1: point is, if she didn't do it, then why did 401 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:43,640 Speaker 1: she go to such extremes to go on the run. 402 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 1: First going to New York, changing her appearance and going 403 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 1: to New York, hiding out in rural of state New York, 404 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,399 Speaker 1: leaving with her sister's passport, and hiding out under an 405 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: assumed name in Costa Rica at a hostel, getting plastics 406 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:03,720 Speaker 1: urgery to change her face, changing the color of her hair, 407 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 1: using a different name. Why would you do all that 408 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 1: if you didn't do it exactly right. And this is 409 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: the intersection of psychology and law when we're looking at 410 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:17,639 Speaker 1: seeing those kinds of factors that go to consciousness of guilt. 411 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 1: And I'm no lawyer, but I believe that a jury 412 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: can consider those things consciousness of guilt. Right, she took 413 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:29,920 Speaker 1: multiple flights, she went to she sold the car. Right, 414 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: this is an evidence. Why do you sell your card, 415 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 1: then you take multiple flights to go to your sister 416 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: at some clandestine location to get her passport. This is 417 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 1: all over the news that she's wanted and then she 418 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,399 Speaker 1: flees from the country and everything else that you mentioned. 419 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: So I see you don't need a PhD in psychology 420 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: to see that this is evidence of guilty. Mind. Oh 421 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 1: god you Doctor Tim Gallagher joining US Medical Examiner for 422 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 1: the entire state of Florida. You can find it at 423 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 1: Pathcareman dot com. Lecturer University of Florida Medical School, and 424 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 1: founder and host are the International Forensic Medicine Death Investigation Conference. 425 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 1: Could you describe what twenty five year old Mariah Wilson 426 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 1: lived through until she bled out cornered there on the 427 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:25,760 Speaker 1: bathroom floor of a friend's apartment. What did she go 428 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 1: through after multiple shootings. Well, it's a horrifying experiences, as 429 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:36,919 Speaker 1: is obvious. But typically what happens is you don't feel 430 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 1: the first bullet wound. You hear that, you hear the gun, 431 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 1: you see the gun being aimed in your direction, and 432 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 1: you see the explosion. You hear the explosion, but you 433 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 1: don't feel the first bullet wound. It's very shocking. It 434 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: takes a while for the body to react to that. 435 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 1: When she received the second and third bullet wound. Now 436 00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:01,680 Speaker 1: the body is reacting to the pain. It is extremely painful. 437 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 1: But at the same time, the organs now are they're hemorrhaging, 438 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: They're bleeding, They're bleeding inside. The lungs are filling up 439 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: with blood, and you slowly develop difficulty breathing. All of 440 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 1: a sudden, you cannot capture your breath. You start gasping 441 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: for air, and your consciousness slowly slips away from you. 442 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: You slip into un consciousness and eventually you will die 443 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:35,160 Speaker 1: several minutes later. I think that is why she went 444 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 1: on the run because of what happened to Mariah. Crime 445 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: Stories with Nancy Grace Dave mac Crime online dot Com 446 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: investigative reporter Dave, please outline the evidence the state is 447 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 1: amassing against Caitlin Armstrong. This is anything but a misogynistic 448 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:14,360 Speaker 1: case put together by a cabal of women haters. If 449 00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: anything is misogynistic, it's one woman gunning down another woman 450 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 1: over a scorned lover. I just go ahead. We have 451 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 1: the gun. We have the prospective gun. Actually, Colin Strickland 452 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: bought two guns, one specifically for Caitlin Armstrong. They found 453 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 1: that gun, and they found ammunition or the shellcasings rather 454 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:41,719 Speaker 1: at the scene that were consistent with the gun at 455 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:47,160 Speaker 1: that Armstrong was known to have. We have Armstrong's vehicle, 456 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: the Gee Grand Cherokee, that was actually seen sixty seconds 457 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 1: after Moe Wilson got home that evening. We have that 458 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: vehicle right there at the property. We also have the 459 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 1: evidence that she took off right away. You know, she's 460 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:09,280 Speaker 1: known to sell the vehicle on May thirteenth. Okay, we 461 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 1: got the shooting May eleventh, May twoff, the police talk 462 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 1: to her. May thirteenth, she sells the Grand Cherokee for 463 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: twelveth grand to a dealership there in town. We also 464 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 1: know that her boyfriend, Colin Strickland, had given her four 465 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 1: and fifty thousand dollars as an investment into a business 466 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: and had asked her to return that money. She didn't, 467 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 1: so she still had that money plus the money from 468 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: the car when she then goes on the run. We 469 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 1: know that she of course went to Newark. We know 470 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 1: that she met up with her sister out in the 471 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 1: middle of nowhere. She then escapes using a different passport 472 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 1: to go to Costa Rica, where she stayed there under 473 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 1: different aliases. We know that she used Beth Martin, Martin 474 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 1: and Airy Martin as different names along the way, so 475 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 1: we know that we have her at the scene of 476 00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: the crime. We know she has a gun that matches 477 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 1: the description with the shellcave things, and we see that 478 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 1: she fled and went out of her way to really 479 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: go off the grid. How did the whole thing start? 480 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 1: Take a listen to our friends at Fox seven our 481 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: cut one.

APD has identified 501 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 1: a person of interest and does not believe the shooting 502 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: was random. They're urging anyone with information or video of 503 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 1: what happened to give them a call now. According to 504 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 1: the cycling magazine at Vello, Wilson was in Texas ahead 505 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:31,680 Speaker 1: of today's gravel locost Race and Hiko, where she was 506 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 1: a favorite to win.

Well, that's all well and good, But 511 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: what allegedly led yoga instructor and a glamorous yoga instructor 512 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 1: at that into a rage? A murderous rage. Take a 513 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 1: listener for at crime online dot com and Our Cut twenty. 514 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: Colin Strickland picked Anna Wilson up for their swim date 515 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 1: on his motorcycle. The pair spent time at the City 516 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: of Austin's Deep Betty Pool, then walked to Poolburger to eat. Afterwards, 517 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 1: he drove Wilson back to her friends home, but didn't 518 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 1: go inside. On the way home, Strickland stopped to text 519 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 1: Armstrong at eight thirty six pm. His text message said, hey, 520 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 1: are you out? Went to drop some flowers for Alison 521 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: at her son's house up north and my phone died. 522 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 1: Heading home unless you have another food suggestion, Strickland lied 523 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: to his girlfriend. Strickland arrived home around eight forty three 524 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 1: pm and sent Armstrong another text and headed to the 525 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: garage to work on his bicycles to prepare for an 526 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 1: upcoming race. He sent another text message to Armstrong at 527 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,680 Speaker 1: nine twenty one, and not long after, Armstrong arrived home 528 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 1: driving a twenty twelve Jeep Grand Cherokee with a large 529 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: bicycle rack mounted on the trailer hitch, a luggage rack 530 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: mounted on the roof, and chrome around the windows. According 531 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 1: to Strickland, Armstrong was the only person to drive that vehicle. Awie, 532 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:12,200 Speaker 1: that's got a hurt because, according to the defense attorney, 533 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 1: that was not her car. So Jackie, could you please 534 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:20,280 Speaker 1: play the sound of the defense attorney we played earlier 535 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 1: insisting this was not her car. The crux of law 536 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 1: enforcement's theory yea from within the first twenty four hours 537 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:33,040 Speaker 1: of this case, they had decided that Kaitlin Armstrong is 538 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: a crazy, jealous person who, in a fit of rage, 539 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:43,279 Speaker 1: murdered miss Wilson. The whole case against Kate Armstrong is 540 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 1: predicated on a deeply misogynistic view of her. So this 541 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 1: dark colored sut that's where the detective really wants to 542 00:34:55,239 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 1: start to hang this horrible crime on Kaylen Armstrong. There's 543 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: no evidence presented ever of a license plate on this 544 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 1: vehicle of any description of an occupant of the vehicle. Okay, 545 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:15,360 Speaker 1: so let me understand this, Dave Mac. They are claiming 546 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: that this was not Kaitlyn Armstrong driving the suv, that 547 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:24,960 Speaker 1: there was another person in a black suv just like hers, 548 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:28,800 Speaker 1: with a bike rack on top just like hers, and 549 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 1: a luggage rack just like hers, and chrome around the 550 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,920 Speaker 1: windows just like hers, that went round and around and 551 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:44,359 Speaker 1: around her boyfriend's side interest, over and over and over. 552 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 1: The boyfriend is accounting for we know where he is 553 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 1: based on a cell phone, which he lied about. But 554 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:55,399 Speaker 1: is that right, Dave Mac. Yeah. And not only does 555 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:58,479 Speaker 1: he say you know that, he says the attorney says, 556 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:01,720 Speaker 1: you can't be in two places at once. It's simple maths. 557 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,320 Speaker 1: But then it's like, well, okay, then where was she 558 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 1: If not in her vehicle at that time, where was she? 559 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: And he said, well, I don't have to prove that, 560 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:12,239 Speaker 1: and don't I don't know what else you can do 561 00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 1: other than prove it if you're going to make that clean. Now, 562 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,399 Speaker 1: hold on, I'm wanting to take a listen to our 563 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: cut eighteen. These are our friends at crime online dot Com. 564 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:26,720 Speaker 1: So not only according to the defense, is the murderer 565 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: driving a dark colored suv just like Caitlin Armstrong's with 566 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 1: the same bike rack, crime around the windows and luggage 567 00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 1: rack on the back exact same Listen to the behavior 568 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 1: of the unknown assailant. Detectives turned to video as they 569 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:46,920 Speaker 1: discover a surveillance camera mounted on the exterior of a 570 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 1: home nearby. The camera face the driveway next to Cash's home. 571 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:55,359 Speaker 1: The footage showed a dark colored suv drive past at 572 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 1: eight thirty seven PM, that's one minute after Wilson entered 573 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 1: cash home. The suv slowed down, appearing to come to 574 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 1: a stop directly next to Cash's residence. The suv had 575 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 1: a large bicycle rack mounted on the trailer hitch of 576 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 1: the vehicle, a luggage rack mounted on the roof, and 577 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 1: chrome around the windows. No other vehicles were seen on 578 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: video surveillance until emergency vehicles arrived to doctor Sherry Schwartz. 579 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:26,400 Speaker 1: How angry do you believe Caitlin Armstrong was after she 580 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 1: had been following her cheating boyfriend all around town as 581 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 1: he was texting her all those lies about taking flowers, 582 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 1: I guess to a sick friend up north wherever that 583 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 1: may be. The whole time she's following him in the 584 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:44,879 Speaker 1: suv with Mariah in the car. That's the theory. Now, 585 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 1: what other unknown assailant is going to come out right 586 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: behind them and watch the boyfriend leave on his motorcycle 587 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:56,839 Speaker 1: and then continue to circle around and around. Who would 588 00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:02,719 Speaker 1: that be the simmering the anger building on itself and 589 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:06,360 Speaker 1: erupting in murder. Who else would do that? What a 590 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 1: known assailant? Doctor Sherry sworts Well, And this is the 591 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:13,759 Speaker 1: challenge I think for the defense and the defendant. There 592 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 1: seems to be compelling evidence that a car that looks 593 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:22,120 Speaker 1: just like Caitlin Armstrong's that she later sold was in 594 00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:25,800 Speaker 1: on seen around the time of the murder. But the 595 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:29,439 Speaker 1: thing is, I don't I've never seen this case from 596 00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:34,759 Speaker 1: the beginning of it as this explosion of jealous rage. 597 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,760 Speaker 1: I think it's exactly what you said, Nancy, the stimmering rage. 598 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 1: But there seems to be evidence of planning here, right. 599 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:45,839 Speaker 1: The stalking is predatory behavior, and then to be able 600 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:50,240 Speaker 1: to slip in and slip out of that residence. Whoever 601 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 1: did this to kill this young woman and then get away? 602 00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:56,880 Speaker 1: And then you know what the state alleges is that 603 00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 1: it's Caitlin Armstrong and she had several steps to get away. 604 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:03,360 Speaker 1: A pretty elaborate plan, is what it seems to me. 605 00:39:03,520 --> 00:39:06,120 Speaker 1: That requires a bit of planning in cool mind. Well, 606 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:09,239 Speaker 1: it's not just the video surveillance. There have been many 607 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,360 Speaker 1: other cases where a car has been proven to be 608 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 1: driven by the killer and who the killer is based 609 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:18,160 Speaker 1: on markings on the car. For instance, and Molly Tibbets, 610 00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:23,840 Speaker 1: a young co ed out jogging who goes missing. Finally, 611 00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 1: ring doorbell cameras revealed a car in the vicinity where 612 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 1: she would jog, going back and forth and back and forth. 613 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 1: Couldn't get a tag blate, but got quote distinct markings. 614 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,760 Speaker 1: It was scrapes along the side of the car traced 615 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:43,240 Speaker 1: back to the killer. Patrick dentist Kendra Hatcher, her fiance's 616 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:47,440 Speaker 1: ex girlfriend, followed her all around town and used a 617 00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:51,400 Speaker 1: friend's jeep to come and kill her, have her killed. 618 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 1: The markings on the car without a tag number led 619 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: to the car. The same thing is going to happen here. 620 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:03,520 Speaker 1: But aside from the car argument, what about intent? Now 621 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:07,720 Speaker 1: this is something created by Caitlin Armstrong herself. These words 622 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 1: take a listen to our cut. Twenty two two days 623 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,520 Speaker 1: after Anna Wilson's murder. Police contacted one of Wilson's friends, 624 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:18,920 Speaker 1: who remains anonymous, to prevent being targeted by Armstrong. According 625 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:22,719 Speaker 1: to their friend, Armstrong discovered Wilson's phone number and contacted 626 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 1: the cycles several times, warning her to stay away from Strickland. Ultimately, 627 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:31,360 Speaker 1: Wilson blocked Armstrong's phone number. Their friend tells police that 628 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 1: Armstrong began following Wilson on Instagram, feeding into Armstrong's jealousy. 629 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: Police say Colin Strickland had bragged on Wilson's talent on 630 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 1: a bicycle and had told his girlfriend that training with 631 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 1: Armstrong was holding him back because he was constantly having 632 00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 1: to stop and wait for Armstrong to catch up. Three 633 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,160 Speaker 1: days after the murder, police get an anonymous call. The 634 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 1: caller tells police that Armstrong had discovered Strickland was having 635 00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 1: a romantic relationship with Wilson, and that Armstrong furious to 636 00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 1: the point that she said she wanted to kill Wilson. 637 00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:08,080 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's coming into evidence. Okay, here's the word 638 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 1: to this pretty good defense attorney for Caitlin Armstrong. You 639 00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:18,400 Speaker 1: will get these statements suppressed. You will win the battle, 640 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:24,160 Speaker 1: But will you win the war? We wait as justice 641 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:27,919 Speaker 1: and foals Nancy Grace crime story, signing off goodbye friend,
