The judge presiding over the upcoming murder trial for Kaitlin Armstrong, accused in connection to the shooting death of cyclist Moriah Wilson, is expected to communicate her decision on November 9 concerning two motions to suppress evidence filed by Armstrong's defense team.

Armstrong's trial was expected to begin in October but has been delayed pending Judge Brenda Kennedy's decision on the two motions.
