Long before the murder, Kaitlyn Armstrong was openly threatening Mo Wilson's life — twice telling different people she wanted to kill her. She tracked Mo's rides on Strava, monitored Colin's phone, blocked Mo's number from his contacts, and accessed his Gmail and Instagram. This wasn't jealousy. It was surveillance.
Where this was said
At 36:40 · chapter starts 29:40
Colin and Kaitlyn had been together for two and a half years — sharing a home, an LLC, and a house in Lockhart — when their relationship ended in October 2021 after a trip to Bentonville, Arkansas, where Colin excluded Kaitlyn from a mountain bike ride on the grounds she wasn't skilled enough to keep up [1] — Host "Colin Strickland met Moriah Wilson at a gravel race in Idaho in 2021, and a brief romantic relationship followed just days after his split …" 28:40 . Days later, Mo Wilson arrived in Austin to visit friends, and a brief romantic relationship between Mo and Colin followed — one Mo apparently didn't know was happening while Kaitlyn's belongings still filled the house. Kaitlyn found out and called Mo directly, telling her to back off. Mo left. Colin and Kaitlyn briefly reconciled. But Kaitlyn was not finished: she messaged Mo repeatedly on Instagram, gained access to Colin's phone, blocked Mo's number from his device, and began tracking Mo's riding routes through Strava. Colin responded by renaming Mo in his phone as 'Christine Wall' and deleting their conversations — behavior he justified as protecting a friendship but which only deepened the tension.
A man used ChatGPT as a de facto lawyer, sharing self-incriminating details in his chats. When the transcripts were subpoenaed, the judge ruled no attorney-client privilege applied and admitted the chats as evidence against him. AI first passes are useful — treating AI as your counsel is dangerous.
CIA operative Edwin Wilson armed Muammar Gaddafi with 10,000 machine guns and 20 tons of C4 hidden in barrels of mud and flew them to Libya himself. He was sentenced to 52 years and served 12 in solitary. He was also a founder of the same arms network Oliver North contracted for the Contras.
Kim Dotcom's legal nightmare had nothing to do with copyright infringement. He donated to WikiLeaks and Julian Assange — and the US government charged him under RICO statutes, seeking 186 years in prison as payback.
More than a decade after his indictment, the US is still trying to extradite Kim Dotcom from New Zealand — even after he suffered a stroke. He cannot be convinced the authorities are on his side; only the legal process, run by his lawyers, keeps him free.
The illegal wildlife trade and the drug trade aren't just parallel industries — they actively overlap. Smugglers force-fed cocaine to boa constrictors to evade customs, packed drugs beneath layers of live animals in crates with spitting cobras on top, and exploited the chronic under-resourcing of US Fish and Wildlife inspection teams.
Mario Tabraue was sentenced to over 100 years in prison for murder and drug trafficking. He served 12. Nobody — not even the DEA agent who put him there — knows why he got out. That agent, Larry Lovelace, now lives in rural West Virginia with a gun within reach every night, still expecting retaliation.
Anson Wong from Malaysia was the Pablo Escobar of the global reptile trade, supplying rare animals — including Komodo dragons — to buyers across the world. He was caught in a sting, extradited to the US, and served the longest wildlife crime sentence at the time. The animals seized from him went on to stock some of America's biggest zoos.
Zelig Williams landed a role in Hamilton at just 19 while still in college — a rare achievement in a world where most Broadway dreams die young. By 28 he was a veteran ready to mentor the next generation, until he disappeared without a trace on October 3, 2024.
Season 5 of Dateline: Missing in America brings six new unsolved mysteries. The show is explicitly asking listeners to engage — because a detail someone remembers might be the break investigators need.
