On October 20, 2008, Anne Pressly was attacked, beaten and fatally injured during a burglary of her home in Little Rock, Arkansas.  Anne’s mother, Patricia Cannady, found her daughter during the early morning hours, after Anne missed her early morning wake-up call.  Anne passed away, surrounded by family and friends on October 25, 2008.  A month later, DNA from Anne’s rape and murder was linked to an April, 2008 rape of a teacher in Marianna, Arkansas.  Curtis Vance was developed as a suspect in both cases and DNA testing confirmed that his profile was consistent with the evidence in both cases.  In 2009, Vance was tried and convicted capital murder and sentenced to life in prison without parole.  Join Lisa O’Brien and Michael Carnahan on Tuesday, January 21, 2020, at 8:00 p.m. Central for a discussion of the case against Vance, his trial, direct appeal and state post-conviction claims.  We’ll also talk about the controversial mistrial in the Marianna, Arkansas rape case and Patricia Cannady’s lawsuit on behalf of herself, Anne and her heirs against personnel at St. Vincent’s Medical Center, who accessed Anne’s medical records without a legitimate medical purpose.  We’re a live show and calls are welcome.  Our phone number is (347) 989-1171.
