Article from ABC news early this week:
During an exclusive interview with "Good Morning America," TV anchorwoman Anne Pressly's father, Guy Cannady, said that his daughter is "continuing to improve" and that "some of the bruising and swelling are beginning to subside," although the 26-year-old remains verbally unresponsive.
Anne Pressly is in critical condition after being assaulted in her home.Potentially fatal swelling in her brain "seems to be under control," according to Pressly's neurosurgeon Dr. Brad Thomas.
Pressly was attacked in her Little Rock, Ark., home Monday and suffered blunt force trauma to her head and upper body that doctors say broke nearly every bone in her face. Her left hand was also broken, leading Cannady to suspect she fought her attacker.
Police have no suspects.
Cannady, although content with the Little Rock Police Department's investigation so far, said he is unconvinced by investigators' treatment of the incident as a "random" robbery.
"It's so hard to understand," he said. "Why would anybody vandalize and brutalize somebody to this extent? There are items missing from the home. The severity of the injuries and brutality of the attack in my own mind calls into question the motive.
Anne has a small part in the new movie "W".
