Yale Student Strangled

Yale Student Strangled

yale student, Annie Le was strangled and asphyxiated to death from shocking asphyxiation , Connecticut’s chief medical examiner announced on Wednesday. According to the medical examiner’s office statement Annie Le died from “traumatic asphyxia due to throat compression.” Her colleague, Yale university employee Raymond Clark is suspected in her murder. Clark resides in Middletown with his girlfriend and is animal research lab technician at Yale. He had been a focal point for the police for days. Police has arrested him overnight but afterward released him to his lawyer. Investigators took hair, saliva and skin samples for DNA tests of this the 24-year-old lab technician. Dead body of the young lady was found behind a basement wall in the Yale University lab where she worked with Clark though Clark is the chief person of interest, but police say they’re still considering everyone who had access to the building.

Clark has been released by police without a crime charge but investigators are in suspense and are trying to find out if they can move forward against him in this murder case. Clark’s fiancée is also working as an animal research technician at the lab. Police processed two more search warrants on Clark’s car and his apartment– where he lives with his fiancée’ and an older man but they couldn’t find any evidence against him. Nobody knows what shape the case will take but everyone wants justice for the beautiful, young girl, Annie Le. A lab technician was arrested early on Thursday and charged in the murder of Annie M. Le, a Yale graduate student whose body was hidden in the wall of a university building after she was strangled, the police in New Haven said. The technician, Raymond Clark III, 24, was taken into custody at a Super 8 motel in Cromwell, Conn., after DNA evidence linked him to Ms. Le’s killing, the police said. He did not resist. Bail was set at $3 million, Chief James Lewis of the New Haven police said.

Chief Lewis would not provide a motive beyond saying: "It is important to note that this is not about urban crime, university crime, domestic crime but an issue of workplace violence, which is becoming a growing concern around the country.” Mr. Clark had been described as a “person of interest” in the case earlier in the week, and he had been taken briefly into custody, at which point DNA and hair samples were taken from him under court order. He was then released, but the police said they remained aware of his whereabouts at all times. A law enforcement official said on Wednesday that Mr. Clark had scratch marks on his chest and on his arms, where there were also bruises. This raised the suspicions of investigators, said the official, who refused to be identified because the case was still open. Mr. Clark and Ms. Le worked in the same building — Mr. Clark as a technician and Ms. Le watching experiments with mice — but little else was known about whether there was any connection or relationship between them. Ms. Le’s body was found in a wall in the basement of the building on Sunday, the day she was to be married. She had been missing since the previous Tuesday.
