Police: Student Is Suspect In Yale Killing Victim believed to be graduate student who was due to be married Sunday
NEW HAVEN, Conn. - Police have identified a suspect in the killing of a person whose body was found stuffed behind a wall in a high-security laboratory building at Yale University, law enforcement sources told NBC News on Monday.
The suspect, a student, has defensive wounds, and failed a polygraph test, police said.
The body found Sunday in the Yale Medical School building is believed to be that of Annie Le, a 24-year-old native of Placerville, Calif. She was last seen in the building on Tuesday.
Police found the female body around 5 p.m. Sunday. An autopsy is being performed to verify that the body is Le's.
Friends said the doctoral student -- who was due to get married on Sunday -- never showed signs of worry about her own personal safety at work, although she did express concerns about crime in New Haven in an article she wrote last year.
"I can't even imagine someone mad at Annie, much less wanting to hurt her," Laurel Griffeath said on the TODAY show on Monday.

I remember back in the 1960’s you never knew the details of a murder case until the prosecutor revealed them at trial. Disclosing them before that serves an entertainment value, not justice. If the Defense attorney sounded off he found himself removed from the case and sanctioned.
Yeah, I got the email that it was my turn and so I got right on it.
What was interesting was how numerous and emphatic the "aye's" were, and only a couple of people had piss in their cornflakes that morning.
Oh yeah that is how it happens, sort of a me too thing.
Any murder of an innocent person, anywhere and anytime, is an argument for concealed carry. Read Dr. John Lott’s “More Guns, Less Crime.” The statistical proof is that states and localities with permissive, “must issue” concealed carry laws have lower rates of crime. The key is concealed carry, not exposed carry, that gives criminals pause and deters crime.
