And this is the man that one woman lost her life because of and another is no doubt going to prison for life? Good Lord!! What an arrogant, rude POS he turned out to be. Definitely not even worth fighting over much less killing for. If he doesn't like testifying and being in the spotlight maybe this will teach him to completely end one relationship before he moves on with another woman. He will have to live with the fact that he dated a psycho who killed an innocent victim. If he even cares.

[@user-pm4ef8yu7w]

I wish him never having another date…..with a woman 😜

[@alfandeddie]

Doubtful. Seems pretty sold on himself.

[@nicoles8176]

He is a jerk. Cheater is always a jerk. It’s was not worth it to go to prison for a POS .

[@user-ui2hw5os3d]

Sorry but she is responsible for her own actions. No man is worth fighting over.

[@roseandrews8523]

He doesn't seem like a good guy.

[@justthefacts8872]

He seems like an arrogant piece of work. The least he could have done was warn Wilson. He seems to be better suited for Armstrong.

[@absolutechad9076]

Seems like he was really having an affair with both women. This gives him a bad reputation.

[@alexgrytsenko85]

Instead of smashing cameras he should be grateful the law doesn't go after him, knowing of her ex's delusional behavior he still found time to buy two guns...

[@Sally150]

Wilson's family will sue him after this trial is over. I'm so glad he's being exposed.

[@steveshea7725]

Everyone in Texas has two guns

[@Sally150]

@@steveshea7725 Kaitlin is from Michigan. She didn't have a gun until 5 months before the murder.

[@user-pm4ef8yu7w]

I Googled him, as I never heard of the jerk. First thing that comes up is the love triangle. The internet is forever.

[@marcialovejoy9926]

Colin with this horrific tragedy that happened i hope that you have learned a lesson. Be honest. And dont bring someone else into the picture until you have totally ended with Kaitylin.

[@musestudio7075]

I think we can safely assume he totally ended it with Kaitlin when he found out she murdered Mo...

[@hed2410]

He had dinner with someone. None of the parties were engaged or married.

[@c-2active]

​@@musestudio7075n went running anyway so HE was left all that time without either one n a case still open n the one he wanted fr dead. Of course he was going in that court heated

[@glamdolly30]

Colin Strickland's acting like a spoiled brat, who resents being summoned to court to give evidence. He needs to man-up and take responsibility for the critical role he played in this horror story that brutally ended one young woman's life. Knocking over a cameraman, there legitimately, to do his job and record a serious crime of public interest - is no way to behave! The least Strickland owes Mo and her loved ones, is to belatedly act like a gentleman, speak up politely and clearly on the witness stand, and behave in a way becoming to the woman who was murdered because of him. His cheating on his psych girlfriend, triggered this tragedy - he has blood on his hands.

[@annem7806]

The player is agitated? Didn't he buy the gun.

[@alfandeddie]

Yes

[@danthaikabuki6115]

He is a player. He played Mo and she ended up dead. He has lost a lot of sponsors, good.

[@jaymejohnson2375]

And that's the ONLY reason he cares

[@angelwings7930]

Maybe if he hadn’t helped stir up problems he wouldn’t be in this situation. Reminds me a bit of the Stephanie Lazarus story.

[@alfandeddie]

Why in the world did he buy her a gun?

[@macelnavarro6312]

This man is so so rude

[@tinukristen4417]

What a jerk? He should be charged. He is a dirty cheater who destroyed two people’s life.

[@jamigoddess]

Charged for cheating? What law is he breaking? Dating 2 girls at once? Pretty sure it was Kaitlin Armstrong who destroyed lives here

[@user-pm4ef8yu7w]

💯

[@derkburke]

I mean what is he gonna be charged for? I get he’s an asshole, but cheating is not a crime.

[@jackselle4607]

Sadly he hasn’t committed any crime, they might be able to get him in a civil suit

[@hed2410]

Lol. What a joke. Last I heard she committed cold blooded premeditated murder of an innocent person. That he wasn't worth any of this is beside the point.

[@morganm1797]

Sneeky guy, he caused this whole thing.

[@tokyok195]

Killed over an absolute waste of a man. What a shame

[@MMM-go4pl]

He should be arrested too.

[@reneegardner2286]

my opinion is this man is a narcissist. he liked triangulating these two women. she definitely wasn't a friend otherwise he wouldn't have changed her name in his phone and lied about his whereabouts the day of the murder

[@alfandeddie]

Hiding behind a mask

[@kendrasong8606]

He’s involved

[@jackselle4607]

Elaborate..

[@karenmontero2039]

Looks like Strickland is just like his ex GF murderer! I see they were a great match! I get it...this is tough on him but he has no right to disrespect someone just doing their job (reporter). Not impressed with that dude! It's because of him his murderer ex GF did what she did (not that it's his fault but he should have ended it with the murderer a long time ago). He knew she was a jealous and had to keep his friendship with Mo a secret. Huge lesson for him to learn now!

[@jaymejohnson2375]

Even though I agree he's a jerk and can't stand guys like him, and yes he should learn that's what u get when you go around playing women, what I really hope is that all women learn that these POS men are NOT worth throwing your life away!

[@alesia912]

She was the scorned jealous woman. She was not sweet and she was very jealous CLEARLY

[@Sally150]

What is your point?

[@lenering1084]

If Colin was not dating 2 girls at the same time, probably Mo Wilson would still alive.

[@melindassimpson7936]

Dont know why he is pissed,...he was aware she was jealous, etc. Maybe he shouldve been honest. There were a lot of red flags.

[@user-zf1oz6ry5m]

He needs to be accountable too. He should of reported her to police . He was negligent.

[@c-2active]

This story crazy fr.

[@kimberlyrivera7347]

Doesn’t give her the right to kill another woman. And then flee. She’s a murderer and needs to take accountability. She had a choice to leave him, go to Costa Rica and start a new life. Which she did. So shows that she chose her future.

[@nacamo17]

Some men do this often (I guess some women too, but as a woman I say what I have seen). They tell you things are over with the previous one or the next one after you so that you come (or come back) with them. But they are puting you in a triangle. My advice for women: if he does suspicious things. If he still lives with the ex for WHATEVER excuse he gives, if the relationship he keeps with his "ex" makes you very uncomfortable: RUN. She is not really the "ex" and he is lying to both of you.

[@lovesphynx]

he didnt help the situation

[@iDalisMediaTV]

he seems suspect. he wears a mask sunglassses and a hat. to not be recognized after the trial very clever. he is suspect.

[@cracked229]

i heard from some locals stricky boy was laying pipe all over austin

[@musestudio7075]

I looked up a few of Colin's old interviews on KZbin and it's clear that he is---or was---a sweetheart. As a woman I found him modest, funny, playful and lovable. I notice no one seems to want to take the time to look up his life before the events surrounding this tragedy. Let's remember that, contrary to Kaitlin's lawyers' pathetic attempts to cast aspersions on Colin in order to distract the public, Colin is a victim too, as Mo's good friend Cash clearly stated in her victim impact statement. He lost a valued friend, his girlfriend, his career & status and all his sponsors, which was a major financial blow. And all of it virtually overnight . His life will never be the same. How much suffering is enough to satisfy us? Be enough to finally stop implicating him? I thought we're not supposed to blame the victim? Or is that reserved just for people we like? I'd be angry, frustrated and resentful too if I were him. I pray he has good support and a lot of love in his life now. And eventually, peace.

[@karenmontero2039]

Doesn't give him a right to disrespect the guy just doing his job (reporter).

[@ebyya]

Shut up muse

[@DarKKnightt07]

Don't make him a victim, cause he's not. If Mo Wilson never met him, she would still be alive. His dishonesty is what got her killed. I find it pretty pathetic that your defending him. Moriah Wilson is the real victim. Colin Strickland is the retard that set all this into motion. She was dead the moment she met him.

[@nicoles8176]

How is he a victim? He has a girlfriend at home while he hangs out with another know the girlfriend is jealous . He is a jerks.

[@DarKKnightt07]

[@MiaMarie420]

What a dick. He doesnt seem very cooperative on helping find the killer of someone who should've directed her anger at him not Mo.
