All this over a man. He wasn't worth it, now was he?!

[@chomama1628]

His choice of her wasn’t worth it either.

[@TruBlu65]

Underrated comment 🎉

[@billcarney829]

Is anyone worth it?

[@SunFlower-sf1go]

Poor Colin met a psychopath on a dating app! Could happened to anyone! Looks can be deceiving!

[@tristan583]

Her crime can’t determine his worthiness, his worth is still is worth , her crime is her crime , he never told her to kill for him . that comment doesn’t make any sense

[@ShannonBartkowicz]

Mo and her Family got Justice!! Im so happy the Jury got this right!!

[@timothythompson4036]

Good rot in prison. This long sentence acts as a deterrent.

[@paulettemaximun2505]

Blessings to the Truth and compassion for the family.

[@nicoleyap6070]

It was so touching what Moriah's mom said. My condolences to the family and friends. RIP Moriah

[@annabambus6572]

Moriah's mother is the absolutely beautiful living example of a person who has genuinely turned to Jesus in a deeply personal and intimate relationship. She is a powerful testimony to what the love of Jesus and for Jesus is truly all about. God bless you always and keep you forever in his grace always through Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit within you. Your words are a powerful source of truth and inspiration to me. Your love for our precious, precious Saviour, Jesus Christ, had me in tears of strength and yes, real inner joy, within this tragedy. I turn again to Ephesians 6 and Corinthians 13. Thank you beautiful, and true woman of God, who so clearly lives her love for Jesus through all. Thank you for blessing my day in all this darkness. God bless.

The sister should be accountable for her part in this crime.

[@n.c.467]

We do not know how she got her sister's passport. Her sister is a victim too.

If She Had the Sister PP Without Her Knowing . She Could Have Had the Sister as an Accessory and Also Set her Up ..She is a Big Criminal

[@n.c.467]

Big Reds More research done....her sister did NOT give her the passport.

[@lealtirerepairandsalesleal6801]

I agree

[@ritagreen6499]

⁠Collin is a grow man, who after meeting this wacky rabbit, I am sure could assess her overwhelming insecurities & jealous nature. He knew enough that anything about Moe will trigger her rage & jealously. He went out with Moe, & had a short fling with her, when he & Kaitlyn were off again, but still roommates. But he recognized her jealousy when he felt the need to hide Moe’s contact information under a false name, in his phone directory. He should have take some moral responsibility and the guilt, in that he knew how jealous & explosive his roommate could be, even if Moe’s name was mentioned. He seems like a man child letting Ms Armstrong have all of the passwords to all of his accounts, who does that as an adult? But yet he wanted to play the field, while having a FT roommate & someone to secure sponsorships for his career. Now that he has lost all of his cycling Sponsorships, he will now need to get a “real” job, outside of the cycling world.

It was over a dude.

[@greyeagle4388]

I can't wrap my head around someone killing another human in the manner that she did, and think she was going to get away with it. 90 years absolutely justified here. She threw her life away and that of the poor victim she killed, and for what gain? absolutely nothing. Did she think she was going to ride of finto the sunset with that guy?

[@ameliawilder28]

You can't. Only God knows what truly goes on in the minds of people like her. Lets just be thankful she wont hurt anyone again. Unfortunately, though, there are people just like her and some even worse than her roaming around...To make it more disturbing, there are people like her and worse that are not here yet - as in not even _born_ yet.

[@ameliawilder28]

@belindajackson8744 You can't deny there are babies who are going to grow up being criminals. You can't deny there are kids who will rebel and do crimes. At a certain age, the choice is theirs, and theirs only. No one can change their mind but only them. This is what the real world is. This is sin. Like it or not, anyone can just turn around and be a monster. It is your life choices that lead you to good or bad, redemption or holding grudges. You make or break your future. You either let bad things destroy you or make you stronger.

[@gericollier456]

And she wanted “community service” for her sentence if found guilty! What a joke!

I say a life for a life. Death Penalty.

[@RYMAN1321]

Let’s be real here, even if she got the death penalty she wouldn’t get executed for another 20-30 years because for the appeals . But in the meantime, being in a cell for 20 hours a day without your freedom or privacy for the rest of your life I feel would be pure hell

[@sterlingmatsui154]

Absolutely Gotta LOVE Smart Texas Juries~Thank You ALL for a Job Well Done During a Truly Heartbreaking Case♡:(

[@StevenHunterPangians1]

[@melaniexoxo]

I can’t even fathom the thought process behind killing someone for ANY reason other than you’re forced to in clear self-defense. It’s absolutely unreal to me how people can think it’s ok.

[@sheilag.834]

Never get involved with a man who hasn't been separated from his wife (& divorced) or girlfriend for at least two years. The feelings are still hot over the relationship. He's not worth you losing your life. So sad! It makes one wonder if Kaitlin would've murdered someone else under another circumstance if this hadn't happened. Not everyone has it in them to murder someone, especially over a man.

[@n.c.467]

You make really good sense.

[@SunFlower-sf1go]

From her track record of stalking every woman he biked with, it's likely she would have killed any girl he was friends with. He met a psychopath on a dating app!

[@georgiafain3747]

They still lived together and Armstrong harassed her on the phone. She knew and still went out with him

[@RYMAN1321]

It’s possible, but not a guarantee

[@steelhurricane4041]

Right now in 2024 She's callous and cold and doesn't think she did anything wrong. If she doesn't feel differently in 30 years, they will keep her.

[@cady3997]

why didn't she get the death penalty? I thought that TX had it.

[@swisstopia]

Good question. Didn’t Governor Perry have numerous executions under his watch?

[@desertlumi1420]

Because she chose the sentence to be rendered by the jury not the judge. The jury gave her 90. Writing 90 even looks terrible. She is so young to start a 90 years sentence. All of her life will be in prison listening those loud doors for the rest of her life while im eating a delicious sushi right here. Oh Armstrong! Adios! You killed a woman for a man. You were beautiful you could have gotten any man or woman you want ! A split decision ruined your life FOREVER

Didn’t follow the case, but 90 years is a lot. If she is really guilty, then justice served. Well done. I hope the victim’s family can find some sort of peace after this. Sad

[@paulevans6403]

IF she is really guilty? How about that dude in Idaho that killed the four girls? Thank maybe he's innocent? Some people.

[@nostalgik._]

There is no if. After Kaitlin killed Moriah, she ran off and escaped to Costa RIca for 43 days until she was captured and brought back to the States. A month before the conviction, she tried to escape again on the way to a medical appointment. Those actions alone says guilty.

[@marciayoung8735]

Oh well that's what you get for Murder

[@reylatable]

Such an incredibly senseless act, Moriah seemed to be not only an outstanding and dedicated young woman but also so beautiful!. How sad her life being cut short like this. May her loved ones find peace and , solace in the memories they shared. I know that this sentencing won’t bring her back however, it is the adequate amount of time for what this coward person did. She deserves every second of those 90 years .
