The Day After And I'm So Thankful: Anne Pressley's Murderer Caught!



I heard it was going to happen......I heard they were going to arraign "him" (not going to even give him the satisfaction of using his name in my post) the day after Thanksgiving.....I'm so impressed with the police and detective work of the Little Rock Police Department....Lt. Hastings should get an award for the work they have done on this case and evidently, the work, I hope they show to all their unsolved homicide cases. When I watched the ABC Good Morning America coverage on this with Anne's parents, The Cannady's this a.m., I practically wept.......just set their with my head in my hands and wept.....out of gratefulness that they had relief that they KNEW that they were going to be able to look this guy 'eye to eye' and say 'WHY?' and furthermore, be able to get the answers they well deserve. I'm so thankful.......my heart is about to explode.....yet my heart is about to break, as well.........







if only.......if only......twenty years ago the parents of Patricia had had the same Police detective work and out pour of tips........if only...........if only evidence had been collected that would have linked this person and sealed a case.......if only, if only.......things wouldn't have gotten in the way of the detective work...........forensics have come along way in twenty years and what was gathered then can seal a murderer today.............and you never know; we may just be one blood drop away from having Patricia's mother say those words that Anne's mom said
......"We have a lot of friends that are going to go with us. We're going to stand together, linked arm-to-arm, to face this man."
