In an interview with Matt Lauer yesterday, the Cannady's told Lauer that their daughter, Anne Pressley, slain anchorwoman for Little Rock's KATV's "Daybreak", was sexually assaulted during the break in on October 20th. Anne eventually succumbed to her injuries on October 25th without regaining consciousness. They also revealed in their interview with Lauer that Pressley's jaw bone was beaten so bad that a part of the jaw bone was broken away and also, she had sustained a broken hand during her brutal attack; evidently fighting for her life. She fought the fight......she wasn't suppose to go this way; and yet, for some reason beyond any one's control, she had to leave this earth with her last conscious thoughts of brutality, rape and fear in her beautiful mind. And this is wrong.......because, for one, I did not know Anne personally; yet I did in my mind because I've known people like her that have had to die just as she did..........but yet, their lives, minds and every day life were so much the OPPOSITE of how they expired from the living.......words come to mind like spontaneous, vigorous, innocence, lively, playful, laughing, smiling, intriguing, uplifting, BEAUTIFUL..........I could go on and on...........Put yourself now in the parents place. What would you do??? Would you put it away---the hate, the hurt, the pain in your stomach that can't go away; the want to take matters into your own hands and justify the action with an action????? What would you do if this were your daughter? Look at his face........there's nothing there.......I saw Patti's face (her mom) in the interview and I've heard those exact words so many times...........over and over.........."this person took our daughter.....". And they did............"this person took her innocence........"and they did..........But they will never........NEVER take what was personal; what you and she only knew between you two; the "Parent to Daughter" commodities........can't take away the school plays......can't take away the first date..........can't take away the school proms that you probably spent countless hours getting ready for and what fun that was.........can't take away teaching her to drive.....ride a bike......the first loose tooth.......Santa Clause and the Tooth Fairy talks............learning to walk......changing her diaper.................Nope; they didn't take that and they won't EVER be able to get one grubby, little, nasty finger on those things that are precious to a parent because they are locked in the vault for good and NO ONE can ever unlock those treasures or ever take them from you as parents. Peace be with the Cannady's as they go thru this justice process and Peace Out!
