Tuesday 28 June 2022 09:51 PM Missing yoga teacher accused of killing love rival in jealous rage 'is still ... trends now
A yoga teacher wanted for killing a professional cyclist in a jealous rage is 'still alive' six weeks after she vanished, US Marshalls say.
Kaitlin Marie Armstrong, 34, is wanted in connection with the killing of Anna Moriah 'Mo' Wilson, 25, who was shot to death on May 11 at her friend's house in Austin.
She was last seen being dropped off at the Newark Liberty International Airport on May 18 - just a day after cops issued a homicide warrant for her arrest.
A man who was staying at the Camp Haven compound in Livingston Manor, New York, later told Fox News Armstrong's sister Christine had been staying there and he had seen her a month ago.
'She was [here] a while back,' he said. 'Right before the whole thing blew up.'
Former FBI special agent Tracy Walder also said he believes Armstrong could be using an alias, and private investigators have received tips that she might be using her sister's name, according to NewsNation.
Marshals have confirmed they are aware of the campsite location but would not confirm whether Armstrong is using her sister's identity.
Kaitlin Armstrong, 34, apparently sold the SUV at the center of Austin police officers' case against her for $12,2000 one day before she was questioned by authorities. Armstrong is now a wanted fugitive for the death of Anna Moriah 'Mo' Wilson

Austin police interviewed Armstrong but had to let her go after they realized that the warrant for her arrest had expired, and the next day she received a check for Jeep Grand Cherokee from a CarMax dealership in south Austin for $12,200.
On Tuesday, a spokesperson for the U.S. Marshals Service told Fox News Digital, 'She is still alive.'
The camp address is roughly two-and-a-half hours away from Newark Liberty International Airport.
Armstrong was questioned by Austin police officers on May 14 after they discovered that the yoga instructor had an open misdemeanor warrant on a theft of services charge, the Daily Beast reports.
The cops then used the opportunity to briefly question her about Anna Moriah 'Mo' Wilson's death several days earlier - after they received an anonymous tip that Armstrong flew into a rage when she discovered that her live-in boyfriend, Colin Strickland, had previously been romantically involved with Wilson.
During the interview, cops showed Armstrong video surveillance of her SUV apparently coming to a stop outside the apartment where Wilson was found dead on May 11.
The footage was time stamped just one minute after Wilson, 25, entered the building following a swim and dinner with Strickland.
Strickland, 35, had reportedly told Armstrong, his girlfriend of three months, he was dropping flowers off for someone and his phone had died, according to KXAN.
During the interview, Armstrong reportedly admitted it 'doesn't look good,' and a probable cause document for her arrest says she 'had no explanation as to why it was in the area, and did not make any denials surrounding the statements presented to her.'
Still, Austin police ultimately had to let Armstrong go after they realized that the warrant for her arrest had expired, and the next day she received a check for Jeep Grand Cherokee from a CarMax dealership in south Austin for $12,200.
A CarMax employee declined to comment when reached by DailyMail.com.
She had apparently sold the vehicle to the dealership on May 13, before she was brought in for questioning, US Marshals Lone Star Fugitive Task Force officials announced on Thursday.
Armstrong then reportedly caught a flight from the Austin International Bergstrom Airport and has been on the run since.
'It's like she just vanished into thin air,' Debra Cronin, who used to be married to Wilson's grandfather told the Daily Beast as she called for justice in Wilson's murder.
Armstrong is believed to have booked a flight from Austin International Bergstrom Airport to Houston before boarding a connecting flight to New York's LaGuardia Airport on May 14.
Authorities released surveillance footage of a woman they believe to be her wearing a black mask covering her face, a denim jacket, a black shirt, white jeans and carrying what appears to be a yoga mat on her shoulders as she goes through the Austin airport.
US Marshals say Armstrong got a ride to the New Jersey airport, but found she did not have reservations for an outbound flight.
Meanwhile, authorities have upped the reward for any information about Armstrong's whereabouts to $21,000.
Authorities describe Armstrong as white, with long, curly light brown hair, hazel eyes. She is five-foot-eight inches tall and weighs around 125 pounds.
Armstrong was last pictured at New York City's LaGuardia Airport on May 14 after arriving from Austin. She took a connecting flight from Houston to get to the Big Apple and has last been spotted at Newark Liberty International Airport on May 18
Armstrong, pictured at LaGuardia Airport on May 14, is believed to not have flown from Newark on May 18. Theories that she flew under a fake name or was deliberately deceptive and had no intention of flying that day have surfaced to light
