Anchorwoman's Murder Suspect Arrested
ABC24 ^ | 11/27/08

Posted on 11/26/2008 10:31:58 PM PST by freespirited

LITTLE ROCK, AR - Little Rock Police say they have arrested the man wanted in the beating death of Little Rock television anchor Anne Pressly.

During a 10:00 p.m. news conference Wednesday night, police issued a warrant for Curtis Lavelle Vance, 28, of Marianna, Arkansas, charging him with capital murder in Pressly's beating.

Our Little Rock sister station tells us Vance was arrested at the intersection of 24th & Cross in Little Rock.

The anchorwoman's mother found her body Oct. 20, a half-hour before Pressly was due on KATV's 5 a.m. "Daybreak" program. Pressly had been beaten about the head and upper body and never regained consciousness before dying five days later.

We are working to get more information on this story.

“Why am I not surprised?”

#####

The preponderance of violent crime evidence provided year in and year out by dispassionate FBI crime statistics?

Why am I not surprised it’s a black guy?
Ugly stupid black criminal kills beautiful white girl...again.
It has become a sad but VERY repetitive story.....almost the same as terrorists being Muslim......

Kind of justifies “racial profiling” doesn’t it?
But Heaven forbid we offend anyone! After all, they have their rights to prey upon the innocent....

Now - all we need to be told is that sexual assault was involved...

What did they say was ever wrong with the death penalty???

Anyone who wants to save this guy from that fate should be made to bring him into their own home for his care.

I for one, as a taxpayer, have no desire to pay $44,000 per year for this piece of human offal to rot in jail if he is convicted.

My heart goes out to this poor family.

Unquestionably. That has long been an established fact among rational people.

Law-abiding blacks living among these savages, are among the most vociferous proponents of racial profiling as a hugely effective tool of law enforcement.

It was funny that they told people to be on the lookout for "Curtis Lavell Vance, but I could not find any description of him other than the following:

Physical description: Vance is 6 foot tall and weighing about 240 pounds.
Vance is reported as driving a black 1998 Oldsmobile Aurora with Sheanika Cooper, aged 25, and three small children accompanying him. The vehicles has 22-inch rims and paper temporary tags.

.

The media mentioned that the car he was driving was black, but they left out the fact that he was black.

Sad to think of the last view her having was that. I'll bet his mother is proud.
