(NewsNation) — Day three of the trial of Kaitlin Armstrong, who is accused of shooting and killing Anna Moriah “Mo” Wilson, a professional cyclist, started off with more witness testimony Friday.
Wilson was found unconscious with a gunshot wound to the head May 11, 2022 at a friend’s Austin, Texas home.
Armstrong, 35, had allegedly been involved in a love triangle between herself, her boyfriend and Wilson. Wilson, 25 years old and a Vermont native, had previously dated Armstrong’s boyfriend, Colin Strickland, a competitive gravel racer.
Investigators quickly cleared Strickland of the crime, with prosecutors saying that video and cellphone calls, texting and location data confirm that he was nowhere near the shooting.
Armstrong faces first-degree murder charges as well as a charge for second-degree felony escape causing bodily injury after running from corrections officers while leaving a medical appointment outside the jail two weeks ago.
In the first two days of the trial, those in court have seen crime scene photos and videos as well as audio of gunshots and a woman screaming. On Thursday, jurors heard from a homicide detective, crime scene specialist and the landlord for the apartment where Wilson was found.
No cameras will be allowed in the courtroom until closing statements.

Daniel Sheer, who lives in Austin near where Wilson’s body was found, was the first to testify Friday. He owns a surveillance camera that hangs underneath his carport.
A few days after Wilson’s death, police left a card at his door, requesting footage from his camera. When he submitted the footage, Sheer didn’t know what crime had been committed.
In Sheer’s video, which was played for the court, a black vehicle can be seen parked inside the carport, which belonged to him. The port is slim and can only fit one car. There is a door on the right leading into the house and a fence to the left, separating homes. The video shows Sheer emerging from the door toward his car as a motorcycle passes by the carport.
According to police documents, Strickland had picked up and dropped Wilson off on his motorcycle in the hours leading up to when she was killed.
