The parents of Anna Moriah “Mo” Wilson, a 25-year-old professional cyclist shot to death in May 2022, are now suing the yoga instructor in Texas who was convicted of murder and sentenced to 90 years for the slaying last year.

Karen Wilson and Eric Wilson, suing on their own behalf and on behalf of their daughter’s estate, filed the case on Monday in Travis County, bringing claims of negligence and gross negligence, assault, and wrongful death against Armstrong.

“As a result of the acts and omissions of Defendant that caused the death of their daughter, Plaintiffs have sustained and suffered severe and significant damages. Plaintiffs hereby make claims for all past and future damages recoverable under Texas law and pursuant to the Wrongful Death Act in an amount within the jurisdictional limits of the Court and which the jury deems just and fair,” the lawsuit said, seeking to hold Armstrong liable for funeral and burial costs, and the “mental anguish, including emotional pain, torment and suffering” that she has inflicted on Mo Wilson’s family.
