Warrant to be released in Annie Le case

NEW HAVEN, Conn., Nov. 7 (UPI) --

A New Haven, Conn., judge says he'll release information that led to the arrest of a lab technician in the death of Yale graduate student Annie Le.

Parts of the arrest warrant affidavit against Raymond Clark III will be made public late next week, Superior Court Judge Roland Fasano said Friday.

Clark, 24, of Middletown, Conn., was charged with first-degree murder in the death of Le, 24, a doctoral student in pharmacology from Placerville, Calif.

Le's body was found Sept. 13, the same day she was to be married to another man, in a crawl space at a research building where Clark worked and Le did research.

An autopsy report said Le died of traumatic asphyxiation due to neck compression. Clark allegedly killed Le over a work dispute, sources told The Hartford (Conn.) Courant in a story published Saturday.

Sources close to the case alleged Clark was arrested after police made a DNA match and he a failed polygraph and was observed with scratches on his body, The Courant reported.
