Raymond Clark Name As Murderer Of Anie Le, Police led away a man Raymond Clark in handcuffs to the cheers of neighbors Tuesday and plan to extract DNA samples in an attempt to link him to the killing of a Yale graduate student Anie Le who died the week she was to be married.
Authorities raided the apartment of 24-year-old Raymond Clark III but did not file any charges against him. Police said he will be release after they obtain the evidence they need from him and his apartment.
Clark, dressed in a tight-fitting white shirt, was handcuffed and escorted out of the apartment building in Middletown and into a silver car. Neighbors leaned over the apartment building’s iron railings and cheered as police led him away.
New Haven Police Chief James Lewis did not describe Clark as a suspect. He said police were
Yale Student Anie Le
hoping to compare DNA taken from Clark’s hair, fingernails and saliva to more than 150 pieces of evidence collected from the crime scene. That evidence may also be compared at a state lab with DNA samples given voluntarily from other people with access to the crime scene.
“We’re going to narrow this down,” Lewis said. “We’re going to do this as quickly as we can.”
Police have collected more than 700 hours of video tape during the probe and sifted through computer records documenting who entered what parts of the research building where Le was found dead.
Investigators began staking out Clark’s home on Monday, a day after they discovered 24-year-old Annie Le’s body hidden in the basement of a research building at Yale’s medical school. She had vanished Sept. 8.
Clark shares the apartment with his girlfriend, Jennifer Hromadka, whom he is engaged to marry in December 2011, according to the couple’s incomplete wedding Web site. Middletown is about 20 miles north of New Haven.
