LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - Prosecutors are to continue calling witnesses in the capital murder trial of the man accused of killing a TV anchorwoman in Little Rock.
Curtis Vance is charged with capital murder for the slaying of KATV personality Anne Pressly, who was found by her mother beaten beyond recognition on Oct. 20, 2008. Pressly died five days later. Vance's trial is to resume Monday.
Pressly's mother, Patty Cannady, testified last week about finding her daughter near death. Also, a Marianna teacher Vance is charged with raping testified about that assault. Prosecutors have also called various witnesses from law enforcement and the state Crime Laboratory, who described the handling of DNA evidence that allegedly linked Vance to both attacks.
