Yale Student Arrested For Annie Le Murder- Case of Obsession Gone Tragic or Wrong Guy?

First question: Do they even have the right guy? I mean, by all accounts, this Raymond Clark kid wouldn't even hurt a fly. He's meek by all that know him, and was an industrious worker who took care of the rodents at the Yale University School of Medicine's Animal Resources Center.

Annie Le, who was working on a doctorate in pharmacology, was supposed to be married to a Columbia University grad student last Saturday, but went missing less than a week before the wedding was to have taken place. Her body was found Sunday, stuffed in the walls of the school. Police aren't giving much more details right now, or if Le and Clark were acquaintances.

Both had worked in the same building, but many coworkers say that in the rush to find a suspect, they picked up the wrong guy. But, let's play conspiracy theorist for a second. What if Clark had a romantic obsession with Le? What if, knowing that Ms. Le was to be married, Mr. Clark decided that if he couldn't have her, no one could? If he did, let's say that he first sexually assaulted her, then strangled her to death and stuffed her behind the school's walls. That's one theory. Another could be that she was the successful and popular student, on her way to success, and he got jealous- insanely jealous- over this.

If he didn't do this, then was he coerced into stating that he did? Was he simply in the wrong place at the wrong time? By all accounts, many people say that he doesn't fit the description of a murderer- kind to everyone; young; naive; etc. But you have to remember that some people who were considered the nicest people on the planet turned out to be some really nasty types.

Again, I'm playing conspiracy theorist here, and until Mr. Clark is found guilty and convicted of this murder, he is considered innocent in a court of law.
