KATV Arkansas Anchorwoman Anne Pressly Dies 1982-2008
Anne Pressly 1982-2008
Anne Pressly, 26, died at St. Vincent Infirmary Medical Center on Saturday evening shortly after 7:00 p.m., six days after being attacked by an unknown assailant at her home in Little Rock, Arkansas. Doctors had remained hopeful but Pressly took a turn late in the week and her condition quickly deteriorated.
She was discovered by her mother on Monday morning when she did not answer her morning wake up call, just a half-hour before she was to appear on ABC affiliate KATV’s Daybreak program.
Police continue to investigate and have found evidence of DNA in the anchorwoman’s home and are also reporting that Pressly’s credit card was used Monday at a gas station a few miles from her home. Sgt. Cassandra Davis, a police spokeswoman, said that investigators believe she was the victim of a random attack.
Presley recently appeared in the new Oliver Stone movie W. She had a small role as a conservative commentator.
KATV opened their Saturday evening news program with a seven minute segment devoted to Pressly. Her mother reported that her daughter expressed a desire to be an organ donor and her wishes were carried out. Funeral arrangements are pending.

The truly tragic death of a beautiful young woman, who was an unwitting cog in the machinery of Northern dominance of Southern lands via language imperialism. Most likely murdered by blacks or Hispanics – the very people the media she worked for loves to idolize and lionize. How ironic and tragic on so many levels.
“Most likely murdered by blacks or Hispanics”????? Why on earth would you make an assumption like that?
This is for the person who made a dumb comment about being murdered by Blacks or Hispanics. I take it you are white because white people do no wrong considering most serial killers and rapists are white males. Ignorance is still strong amongst some white people and this person just showed us that. I just hope that they find the killer and serve justice black or white and I’m a black person.
Everyone always wants to make things black and white and this is why America is so behind other nations when it comes to equality. White people are constantly stealing the black culture everyday for example white people took our music they tried to take our dance culture but half of them cannot dance anyway. White people took our fashion they took our slang anything black people discover white people take it. White people seem to always take something of ours and put a little white blond blue eyed face to it and instantly it makes tons of money.
I don’t know who did this, but it sure doesn’t seem like a “random” crime. If it was a stalker situation then most likely the perp is a caucasian, not as likely to be black or hispanic.
Hey L. It’s based on stats and not any sort of Racism. Check the incoming persons to a jail at any given time and get back to me.
Interesting there has been no mention of the attackers race in any of these articles, possibly because it’s the eve of an election?
Here is an update I got today from a private source;
a source indirectly connected to the medical examiner who completed the autopsy, that Anne Pressly was sexually assaulted by two black males, based on DNA found at the scene and on her body. Furthermore, rather than having been simply beaten as the controlled media reports, WR has been told that she was cut on her face and private areas with a knife in a gruesome mutilation.
This may be the new trend, ignore race when looking for a suspect. Get used to it.
Well my mother told me she was jogging downtown and overheard a pair of men speaking about Miss Pressly’s death stating “someone was giving a sign to all the trans” now i’m not aware as to why they would say something like that but it makes you wonder or at least me
i believe that this was not a random act based on the way that the little rock police have treated the case. If this was a random act then that would mean the possibility of a serial stalker or killer and they would have no idea who did it and they would release the information they have. They would show the video at the gas station in order to get more leads and information from the public. i believe they have a suspect and do not want him to flee
uh…just so everyone knows, one of the previous posts mentions a “private source” named “WR” that says that the crime was committed by two black males…guess what WR stands for? its the same quote being repeated by all over the net by a site called WHITE REVOLUTION…disgusting…
Jus, when you say “trans” I hope that you don’t mean transgender…that is really ofensive to me. I went to school with Anne in Sc, and I can assure you that this is not the case….
All the WR stuff is crap. Who cares what race the person(s) was who did this? The fact of the matter is that someone was burtally beaten and it lead to their death. We should be concerned whenever this happens to anyone, not just a celebrirty, and leave race out of it. I am sure that the last thing Anne would want would be for this to turn into a race issue.
Excuse me “The_Truth” but what exactly is so disguisting about White people looking out for their own interests and having organizations like White Revolution represent them in that effort? Correct me if I am wrong here but isn’t that exactly how blacks conduct themselves here in America today? I mean you have the NAACP, the Black Legislative Caucas, Black Miss America etc etc seriously I could go on for days here. The truth is your hypocrisy knows no bounds when it comes to the mythological ideas of equality and tolerance because obviously it is racist and intolerant for white people to have any kind of identity or representation in your America. By the way White Revoltion broke the story because no one else was willing to report the FACT that two savage negroes cut this womans life short. And to those who say race has nothing to do with this crime, tell that to the two negroes who chose Anne Pressly as their victim because she was a beautiful,young,WHITE woman who lived at home alone.
Oh my God…reading all your comments made on here….BLACK OR WHITE…I must say that most were quite ignorant and baseless. Facts? Stats? How about you back up your comments with actual cites referenced?
On one side, one of you mentioned that Ms. Pressly was “most likely murdered by Blacks or Hispanics…” and that it was caused by the “machinery of Northern dominance of Southern lands via language imperialism…”.
On the other side, one of you said that “White people are constantly stealing the black culture everyday for example white people took our music…” and that “ignorance is still strong amongst some white people…”
Please…all of you who made these idiotic comments…do human kind a favor…refrain from breeding at all costs!
Yes, I concur…the percentages might vary amongst the races…for example…the large majority of serial killers have been white…and the large majority of violent crimes have been committed by minorities in the U.S. population. Without citing any references for what I’ve just stated…it is safe to say that EVIL knows no color or creed. So then why must we always generalize, categorize, and stereotype everyone? This woman could have easily been killed by anyone….Black, White…or even Barney freakin’ purple!
On a parting note…if you didn’t notice…we have a BI-RACIAL President-Elect…he is neither Black man (like many, including himself, like to promote) nor a White man (like no one seems to promote). What do you think of that?
END
…adding to my recent reply.
“BLACK GUY”: Your comment about our country was absurd. You are naive to think that we are behind anyone in the world in regards to race. Racism, Segregation, and Separatism is everywhere! For example, France, Cuba, Italy, Mexico, etc. Yes, the U.S. is notorious for its history of slavery and segregation…but we were not alone (who do you think brought the slaves to the U.S.?). Please read up on history and come back with some substance to debate on.
END
What is wrong with you people! Black, white, mexican,what does that have to do with the price of tea in China? Must we be so prejudice? Why point fingers and make things worse than they are.
Until we as a people and a nation can start treating each other with respect and dignity, progress will move at a glacial pace. Find someone of a different race, color or creed and try being kind to them, see that we all have very much more in common than not. You all need Jesus! really bad!
I have been hearing a lot about Anne Pressly being born a man…how true is that? Is someone willing to provide any baby pictures or pictures of her as a little girl?
Wonder why someone alledge, that Anne Pressly was born with a talley whacker? For christ sakes; She was indeed a woman!
