Clark Finally Arrested in Annie Le's Death

CROMWELL, Connecticut - The arrest of Yale lab technician Raymond Clark, III, 24, for the murder of Yale graduate student Annie Le, 24, has finally happened. He has been the only person of interest in the case from the very beginning.

Clark was taken by police at 8:10 am Thursday from a Super 8 motel in Cromwell, Connecticut, where he spent the night after being released from police Wednesday morning. They were waiting on DNA results for evidence.

Authorities linked the DNA from Clark and Le, both of whom worked in the same building. Le disappeared on September 8th, her body was found Sunday inside the basement wall of the lab building she was seen entering on Tuesday. Le was never seen alive again.

The police took Clark into custody Tuesday night and had a warrant to test his DNA. He was released Wednesday morning, but police were keeping a good eye on him until they got the DNA evidence to arrest him.

Swiped cards Le and Clark used to move throughout the lab building showed they were in the same room shortly after 10 am on September 8th. Clark had scratch marks on his chest and failed lie detector tests.

The official cause of Le's death was "traumatic asphyxiation due to neck compression."

New details about Clark are emerging. Police were summoned to a Connecticut High School in 2003 after an unidentified woman reported Clark forced her to have sex with him. The woman declined to press charges.

I am glad they got him, what drives people to do such things?
Posted By WordSlinger WordSlinger | 2 months ago
I've always wondered myself how people are driven to snap and kill.
Posted By jongleur jongleur | 2 months ago
WordSlinger, Sad story indeed! That this killer was apprehended feels slightly cathartic, yet I remain unsettled that Annie (at the age of my youngest daughter) could have her life stolen in such a brutal and tragic way by this troubled scoundrel that obviously felt insecure enough in his own skin to commit murder.

Don't know what happened but something tells me that this was a case of fatal attraction. I think he had a crush on her, then snapped when she was going to get married.
