It's interesting that she was a conservative anchor woman. Was this a politically motivated attack?

Probably not if the perp actually used her bank card after the attack IMHO.

Could be a diversion, the perfect crime. No one would suspect.

“Probably not if the perp actually used her bank card after the attack IMHO.”

I'd not bet on it, were I you. It could well have been intentional misdirection. I wouldn't bet against it, either, though. Hopefully, someone will give the perp up to the cops, and then maybe we'll find out.

Prayers up for her family.

The description of her trauma was such that I say to myself at least her suffering is over. It does not lessen the grief her family and loved ones are experiencing right now.

May God see them through their grief.

If her boyfriend is not a suspect, he should be

May Jesus and Mary comfort this family through this most horrendous, senseless loss of life. Prayers up for Jennifer Hudson as well.

Why was her name Pressly if her parents were named Canady? Was there an ex-husband out there?

Very sad.

The boyfriend or husband is the default suspect.

Didn’t she play Ann Coulter in the Bush hatefest “W”?
