Today is a dark day at Yale University. Raymond Clark III was arrested for strangling Yale graduate student Annie Le to death. Clark seemed to live a normal life before the incident. In high school, he respected authority and was competitive at baseball. Clark also volunteered to help the homeless and raised money for cancer-stricken patients. Clark was also a part of the Asian Awareness Club.

However Clark also had a dark side. He was very controlling of his fiance and tended to withdraw from emotions. There was even a police report filed that suggested that he was abrasive with his high school girlfriend. The girlfriend said that Clark forced her to have sex with him and she was scared to find out what happens if she broke up with him. When working at the lab at Yale University, Clark was reportedly very demanding of his co-workers.

There were some text messages and e-mails found between Le and Clark that revolved around work cleanliness. Clark was mad at Le for supposedly leaving the mice cages in the lab dirty. Clark was responsible for cleaning the mice cages. Clark lived with his girlfriend Jennifer Hromadka in an apartment nearby the Yale lab. One of the neighbors of Clark and Hromadka said that he did not treat her well. Clark would not let Hromadka talk to anyone.

On September 8, Le’s body was discovered in the wall of the basement of a Yale building. On that day she was supposed to get married. Later that day Clark seemed to have scratches on his body but he blamed that on the animals he worked with at the lab.

Last year Hromadka wrote a undated blog post on her MySpace profile that denied that Clark was having a fling with a woman at the lab. “My boyfriend, Ray, if you don’t know him, has no interest in any of the other girls at YARC as anything more than friends,” stated Hromadka. She added that Clark was “a bit naive… but a good guy.” Hromadka deleted her MySpace profile recently.

Ray himself also had a MySpace page that he did not touch since 2006. But now the account has been deleted. On his MySpace profile in the about me section he wrote “Hello my name is homo ray i fart on people.” And on the Who I’d like to Meet section he wrote, “your mom so I can [expletive] her.” Under his interests he wrote porn for movies, TV, books, and heroes. Ray and Jennifer also had a profile page on TheKnot.com. The couple planned to get married on December 20, 2011 and have been engaged since New Year’s Day 2008.

When creating social media profiles, there is a certain level of professionalism that should be considered. Now people that hear about Ray’s MySpace profile will know that there was something slightly off about the guy.
