Running off to Mexico is easy. The hard part comes next.

One website is reporting that she was tracked through Strava.

My favorite thing about reddit is that everything on it is always accurate.

I get the desire to speculate and all but... I dunno. Doesn't seem like this particular rabbit hole is worth going down.

Crappy story overall. RIP.

Careful - unless you can point us to the website with that conclusion, I believe accounts are stating that since Wilson posted a public Strava ride departing and returning to the apartment where she was killed, Armstrong could have known where she was staying from her Strave ride, not necessarily that she was tracked through Strava.

Based on the timeline in the affidavit, it certainly seems like Armstrong may have been real time tracking at least one of them. Good chance it was through Find My Friends or another phone app.

Or she went old school and just followed them.

I imagine you read it correctly, but that's a far cry from VeloNews having the story correct. I wouldn't take anything they write re: this story as being accurate.

I believe you read incorrectly.

Yes, didn't they contact the landlord a couple of days after the murder and got some more information from him? Must have been in the affidavit since that's about all I've read on this?

Plus the national morning shows like Good Morning America, and even the local news here in Nashville.

The whole thing is crazy and sad. So someone purportedly kills someone to have “a lover” to themselves, but then has to run far away from that lover and likely will never see that person again because they are hunted by the police and likely end up in jail

Yeah that's what I don't get about people who do these type of things. Call it a "crime of passion" if you will but the thinking it through part of the equation is not there. Once ths crime is commited, there's no turning back....ever. The other person is dead, your life is essentially over (either on the run, in jail, or awaiting the death penalty). One vicious act and your entire life is done! I'll never understand this.

These people aren't rational people or at least not in the state they are in, and in this case she sounded particularly possessive. Terrible situation. I've personally been in a similar situation where a guy called me, from his partners phone, and told me to stay away. Guy definitely had possessiveness to his partner and controlled her thru money and he definitely had the means to do anything. There was a period of time where I just always sort of kept a watchful eye around my surroundings because I legitimately thought he might try to do something similar. I'm really sort of surprised, given Mo had fielded some threatening phone calls, that she even agreed to go swim. Just playing with fire.

Did a search on here for this, but it doesn't seem we ever had a thread on the death of Mary Knott, who was pretty well known triathlete who died in a murder-suicide. https://www.oxygen.com/...cide-by-ex-boyfriend

There's also the possibility she killed herself already.

I get that too - but if you kill yourself after how do you get that “object of lust and desire?”

I don't think rational and logical thinking is one of her strengths.

She might see him again. In her current state of mind (which may be her "normal" state of mind), and knowing she has nothing to lose, I wouldn't rule out another murder and then suicide.

Just a horrible and terrible tragedy. I feel awful for the Wilson family -- losing someone so young is gut-wrenching, then add in the horrific circumstances and publicity.

This. Hold back evidence can be key when you are pursuing other investigative techniques like U/C and wiretaps.

You don't say if the guy's concerns were valid or not :)

The "passion" is not about fulfilling a romantic passion, but rather, passion means uncontrollable emotion, in this case Kaitlin Armstrong's jealousy. The emotion overrides reason.

From, for example, wikipedia:



Here's a story about five crazy crimes of passion, I can't vouch for any, except I certainly remember Amy Fisher and Joey Buttafuoco. Includes one lady in Belgium sabotaging her romantic competitors parachute. I'd guess one of the earliest literature references to a crime of passion is the story of Cain and Abel.

RIP Mo Wilson

That one also essentially caused the downfall of the Transitions forum. Not that I am trying to compare that to a loss of life in any way.

I'm one of those "it depends" cancel culture folks. I feel this one is way way too soon. Whackadoodle girlfriend nets you a loss of your job essentially? That's ridiculous.

I'm sure he won't be able to sue though as they probably have some kind of "image" related clauses in their contracts to give them an out.

Conservative fantasies aside ("cancel culture?" seriously?) image is what sports sponsorship is all about, isn't it?
An acknowledged liar who bought the murder weapon doesn't fit the bill.
