academic landscape
of Yale University
13
00:00:09,442 --> 00:00:11,611
lies a fortress of
scientific advancement
14
00:00:11,611 --> 00:00:14,247
known as the Amistad lab,
15
00:00:14,247 --> 00:00:15,849
where the greatest
scientific minds
16
00:00:15,849 --> 00:00:17,851
are dedicated to
problem solving.
17
00:00:17,851 --> 00:00:18,918
[suspenseful music]
18
00:00:18,918 --> 00:00:21,621
- It was a very
well-funded laboratory.
19
00:00:21,621 --> 00:00:23,390
It had the best of everything.
20
00:00:23,390 --> 00:00:24,491
- Everybody who's there,
21
00:00:24,491 --> 00:00:25,892
they want to change the world.
22
00:00:25,892 --> 00:00:27,060
[ominous music]
23
00:00:27,060 --> 00:00:29,796
- But when a scholarly
bride-to-be disappears
24
00:00:29,796 --> 00:00:33,199
from the lab with no
evidence of her leaving,
25
00:00:33,199 --> 00:00:37,237
investigators face the
ultimate closed-door mystery.
26
00:00:37,237 --> 00:00:38,138
[suspenseful music]
27
00:00:38,138 --> 00:00:40,273
- We see Annie Le
enter the building,
28
00:00:40,273 --> 00:00:41,708
and we don't see her again.
29
00:00:42,776 --> 00:00:43,843
Where did she go?
30
00:00:43,843 --> 00:00:47,614
- Someway, somehow she was
still in this building.
31
00:00:47,614 --> 00:00:50,817
- Someone called me and
said they found Annie.
32
00:00:50,817 --> 00:00:53,653
- I passed out from shock.
33
00:00:53,653 --> 00:00:54,888
[intense suspenseful music]
34
00:00:54,888 --> 00:00:58,658
- The reality set in that she
had been brutally murdered.
35
00:00:58,658 --> 00:01:00,493
- [Alan] Suddenly a
missing person's case
36
00:01:00,493 --> 00:01:03,229
becomes a desperate
search for a killer.
37
00:01:03,229 --> 00:01:04,764
- But just about everything from
38
00:01:04,764 --> 00:01:07,667
that space requires
keycard access.
39
00:01:07,667 --> 00:01:08,668
[keypad beeping]
40
00:01:08,668 --> 00:01:11,771
- You're a close-knit
group in a small lab.
41
00:01:11,771 --> 00:01:13,873
You are together
day in and day out.
42
00:01:14,707 --> 00:01:16,476
- Nobody trusted anybody.
43
00:01:17,644 --> 00:01:19,412
- A mystery so vexing
44
00:01:19,412 --> 00:01:22,182
can only lead to one solution.
45
00:01:22,182 --> 00:01:24,250
Somewhere inside these walls
46
00:01:24,250 --> 00:01:25,085
[intense dramatic music]
47
00:01:25,085 --> 00:01:27,854
a murderer is hiding
in plain sight.
48
00:01:27,854 --> 00:01:31,357
[dramatic theme music]
49
00:01:41,601 --> 00:01:43,570
[intense foreboding music]
50
00:01:43,570 --> 00:01:45,872
[siren wailing in distance]
51
00:01:45,872 --> 00:01:48,208
- Late on the night of
Tuesday, September 8th,
52
00:01:48,208 --> 00:01:50,310
a student at Yale University
53
00:01:50,310 --> 00:01:51,811
calls the Yale Police Department
54
00:01:51,811 --> 00:01:53,746
to report her roommate missing.
55
00:01:53,746 --> 00:01:55,615
[dramatic music]
56
00:01:55,615 --> 00:01:57,484
Her roommate is Annie Le.
57
00:01:57,484 --> 00:02:01,621
She's a 24-year-old PhD
student in pharmacology.
58
00:02:01,621 --> 00:02:03,723
[quiet dramatic music]
59
00:02:03,723 --> 00:02:06,559
- The roommate hadn't
heard from her all day.
60
00:02:06,559 --> 00:02:09,229
They texted normally
multiple times a day,
61
00:02:09,229 --> 00:02:11,698
and so she was concerned
that something had happened.
62
00:02:11,698 --> 00:02:13,466
[dramatic music continues]
63
00:02:13,466 --> 00:02:16,569
- [Det. Valentin] What adds an
extra layer of mystery
64
00:02:16,569 --> 00:02:18,238
to all of this is that she's
supposed to
65
00:02:18,238 --> 00:02:20,773
be married that very
weekend.
66
00:02:20,773 --> 00:02:23,877
The fact that this is
out of character for her
67
00:02:23,877 --> 00:02:27,647
and this would not be how
she would conduct herself
68
00:02:27,647 --> 00:02:29,782
in the days leading
up to her wedding,
69
00:02:29,782 --> 00:02:31,885
this gave it some more urgency
70
00:02:31,885 --> 00:02:34,521
than it otherwise would've had.
71
00:02:36,923 --> 00:02:38,992
who is 80 miles away.
72
00:02:38,992 --> 00:02:41,027
- [Det. Valentin] Jonathan is at
Columbia University
73
00:02:41,027 --> 00:02:42,795
in New York City.
74
00:02:42,795 --> 00:02:45,465
They ask him whether or
not he's heard from her,
75
00:02:45,465 --> 00:02:47,500
and Jonathan tells the
police that he's been
76
00:02:47,500 --> 00:02:49,035
at Columbia University all day
77
00:02:49,035 --> 00:02:50,670
and that he had
a class that day.
78
00:02:50,670 --> 00:02:52,539
He says that
because he and Annie
79
00:02:52,539 --> 00:02:54,340
both have very busy schedules,
80
00:02:54,340 --> 00:02:56,543
it wasn't unusual for
them not to talk much,
81
00:02:56,543 --> 00:02:58,811
if at all, during the day.
82
00:02:58,811 --> 00:03:00,947
- [Alan] However, Jonathan
says that Annie was supposed
83
00:03:00,947 --> 00:03:04,284
to call him at 7:00 p.m.
that day but never did.
84
00:03:04,284 --> 00:03:05,785
And when her
roommate reached out
85
00:03:05,785 --> 00:03:07,921
with the news she
never came home,
86
00:03:07,921 --> 00:03:10,390
he encouraged her to
call campus police.
87
00:03:10,390 --> 00:03:11,391
[intense dramatic music]
88
00:03:11,391 --> 00:03:13,293
- [Det. Valentin] He says he's
very worried,
89
00:03:13,293 --> 00:03:16,696
and that he's going to travel
up to New Haven the next day.
90
00:03:16,696 --> 00:03:18,798
The initial
impression of Jonathan
91
00:03:18,798 --> 00:03:21,434
is that he is a worried fiancé,
92
00:03:21,434 --> 00:03:24,504
and that it's not
throwing up red flags,
93
00:03:24,504 --> 00:03:26,839
but we can't rule him out
as a suspect just yet.
94
00:03:26,839 --> 00:03:28,041
[suspenseful music]
95
00:03:28,041 --> 00:03:30,410
- [Alan] Investigators plan to
question Jonathan further
96
00:03:30,410 --> 00:03:31,711
when he arrives.
97
00:03:31,711 --> 00:03:33,513
In the meantime,
campus police open
98
00:03:33,513 --> 00:03:35,448
a missing person's investigation
99
00:03:35,448 --> 00:03:38,751
and get a detailed description
of Annie from her roommate.
100
00:03:39,552 --> 00:03:41,788
- [Det. Valentin] When campus
police talk to the roommate,
101
00:03:41,788 --> 00:03:44,791
she tells them that
Annie left that morning
102
00:03:44,791 --> 00:03:47,860
wearing a bright green
top and a brown skirt,
103
00:03:47,860 --> 00:03:49,596
and then the police
were told that Annie
104
00:03:49,596 --> 00:03:51,464
had a very predictable routine.
105
00:03:51,464 --> 00:03:52,832
She would go to her office,
106
00:03:52,832 --> 00:03:54,400
which was part of the campus.
107
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:55,735
She would go to her laboratory,
108
00:03:55,735 --> 00:03:56,836
which is about a half mile away
109
00:03:56,836 --> 00:03:58,938
on the outskirts of New Haven,
110
00:03:58,938 --> 00:04:00,740
and then she would return home.
111
00:04:00,740 --> 00:04:01,674
[suspenseful music]
112
00:04:01,674 --> 00:04:04,444
So the first place
to go is her office.
113
00:04:04,444 --> 00:04:07,614
[dramatic music]
114
00:04:07,614 --> 00:04:09,849
So as officers look around,
115
00:04:09,849 --> 00:04:12,352
they don't see any signs
of some sort of struggle.
116
00:04:12,352 --> 00:04:13,753
There's no drawers open.
117
00:04:13,753 --> 00:04:15,989
There's no chairs
that are overturned.
118
00:04:15,989 --> 00:04:17,357
You know, there's
nothing to suggest
119
00:04:17,357 --> 00:04:19,626
that something happened
inside the room.
120
00:04:19,626 --> 00:04:20,560
[dramatic music continues]
121
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,629
- [Alan] But what
campus police do find
122
00:04:22,629 --> 00:04:26,032
in Annie's office raises
further questions.
123
00:04:26,032 --> 00:04:29,035
- [Det. Valentin] They find her
wallet, credit cards,
124
00:04:29,035 --> 00:04:30,703
and her cellphone.
125
00:04:31,904 --> 00:04:34,440
So where could she have gone
126
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,342
where none of those
things are needed?
127
00:04:37,377 --> 00:04:38,778
[suspenseful music]
128
00:04:38,778 --> 00:04:40,146
- [David] Obviously it shows she
wasn't
129
00:04:40,146 --> 00:04:42,749
planning to go
anywhere long term.
130
00:04:42,749 --> 00:04:44,784
So one of the things that
the police do in these
131
00:04:44,784 --> 00:04:48,121
kinds of cases is immediately
call the person's parents.
132
00:04:48,121 --> 00:04:50,657
Annie's parents
live in California.
133
00:04:50,657 --> 00:04:51,924
Annie's parents say that
134
00:04:51,924 --> 00:04:53,793
she was excited to get married.
135
00:04:53,793 --> 00:04:55,495
That's all she
was talking about.
136
00:04:55,495 --> 00:04:58,931
Nothing that had indicated
that she was going to takeoff.
137
00:04:58,931 --> 00:05:01,000
A daug
138
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,036
is a parent's worst nightmare.
139
00:05:03,036 --> 00:05:05,505
[intense dramatic music]
140
00:05:05,505 --> 00:05:06,606
- [Alan] With urgency mounting,
141
00:05:06,606 --> 00:05:09,042
Yale Police call in the
New Haven Police Department
142
00:05:09,042 --> 00:05:11,678
and the FBI for reinforcement.
143
00:05:11,678 --> 00:05:12,945
[dramatic music continues]
144
00:05:12,945 --> 00:05:14,881
- Yale PD enlisted
the help of the FBI.
145
00:05:14,881 --> 00:05:17,884
That's when my team
was asked to assist.
146
00:05:17,884 --> 00:05:20,486
Just from all the
initial interviews,
147
00:05:20,486 --> 00:05:21,821
it raised to the level of, like,
148
00:05:21,821 --> 00:05:23,156
"Let's call in New Haven Police,
149
00:05:23,156 --> 00:05:25,825
A, so that we have
more personnel to work,
150
00:05:25,825 --> 00:05:27,960
but B, so that in
case it is a homicide,
151
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:29,829
they're here from
ground level."
152
00:05:29,829 --> 00:05:31,431
[suspenseful music]
153
00:05:31,431 --> 00:05:33,099
- [Alan] Meanwhile, they
work through the night
154
00:05:33,099 --> 00:05:35,435
to learn everything
they can about a woman,
155
00:05:35,435 --> 00:05:37,036
who, they increasingly suspect,
156
00:05:37,036 --> 00:05:38,771
is in serious danger.
157
00:05:38,771 --> 00:05:40,673
[dramatic bass music]
158
00:05:40,673 --> 00:05:45,545
[gentle music]
159
00:05:45,545 --> 00:05:48,548
and she was a fireball.
160
00:05:48,548 --> 00:05:50,950
She was naturally curious.
161
00:05:50,950 --> 00:05:54,721
She graduated valedictorian
from high school
162
00:05:54,721 --> 00:05:59,959
and was determined to really
pursue her interest in STEM.
163
00:05:59,959 --> 00:06:01,861
Annie and I met at
the undergraduate
164
00:06:01,861 --> 00:06:05,865
scholorshop program at the
National Institutes of Health,
165
00:06:05,865 --> 00:06:08,067
and we became fast friends.
166
00:06:08,067 --> 00:06:11,738
She's 12 years my junior,
167
00:06:11,738 --> 00:06:14,674
and she looked up to
me as her big sister,
168
00:06:14,674 --> 00:06:18,111
so I had some important
shoes to fill.
169
00:06:19,579 --> 00:06:22,615
- [Alan] In 2007, Annie
was accepted into Yale's
170
00:06:22,615 --> 00:06:25,218
competitive pharmacology
graduate program.
171
00:06:25,218 --> 00:06:26,953
By her second year,
172
00:06:26,953 --> 00:06:29,889
Annie had secured a position
on a multimillion-dollar
173
00:06:29,889 --> 00:06:33,960
groundbreaking experiment at
Yale's prestigious Amistad lab.
174
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:35,995
[dramatic instrumental music]
175
00:06:35,995 --> 00:06:38,731
but it was a laboratory
at Yale University,
176
00:06:38,731 --> 00:06:40,800
so it had the best
of everything.
177
00:06:41,300 --> 00:06:43,903
- [Jennifer] Annie was testing
lifesaving medicines
178
00:06:43,903 --> 00:06:46,172
utilizing mice.
179
00:06:46,172 --> 00:06:48,141
It's a tight-knit community.
180
00:06:48,141 --> 00:06:49,776
Everybody who's there,
181
00:06:49,776 --> 00:06:51,144
they want to change the world.
182
00:06:51,577 --> 00:06:54,514
You're a close-knit group.
183
00:06:54,514 --> 00:06:57,016
People look after one another.
184
00:06:57,016 --> 00:06:58,518
[light dramatic music]
185
00:06:58,518 --> 00:06:59,552
- [Alan] And now,
186
00:06:59,552 --> 00:07:03,189
one member of this
tight-knit group is missing,
187
00:07:03,189 --> 00:07:04,991
and campus police
working through the night
188
00:07:04,991 --> 00:07:08,194
pour over Annie's cell
phone and email records
189
00:07:08,194 --> 00:07:11,130
for a clue to where
she might have gone.
190
00:07:11,130 --> 00:07:12,932
- [Det. Valentin] Police go
through all of Annie's
191
00:07:12,932 --> 00:07:15,868
text messages, look at
all of Annie's emails,
192
00:07:15,868 --> 00:07:17,670
to see is there an
unknown relationship
193
00:07:17,670 --> 00:07:19,138
that she's engaged in.
194
00:07:19,138 --> 00:07:19,906
[eerie dramatic music]
195
00:07:19,906 --> 00:07:22,175
And they don't find anything.
196
00:07:22,708 --> 00:07:26,612
And, in fact, the only
message of any consequence
197
00:07:26,612 --> 00:07:28,815
is the last message
that she sends.
198
00:07:28,815 --> 00:07:29,749
[dramatic music]
199
00:07:29,749 --> 00:07:32,552
She tells all of her
coworkers at the lab
200
00:07:32,552 --> 00:07:35,054
because she's leaving for two
weeks to get married.
201
00:07:35,655 --> 00:07:36,823
- [Alan] But
something else about
202
00:07:36,823 --> 00:07:39,759
that email catches
their attention.
203
00:07:39,759 --> 00:07:42,161
The IP information indicates
204
00:07:42,161 --> 00:07:45,665
that it was sent from
a computer at the lab.
205
00:07:45,665 --> 00:07:47,166
- [Det. Valentin] Annie sends
her last email
206
00:07:47,166 --> 00:07:48,134
from her lab computer
207
00:07:48,134 --> 00:07:51,037
a little after 10 o'clock on
Tuesday morning.
208
00:07:51,037 --> 00:07:52,338
[light dramatic music]
209
00:07:52,338 --> 00:07:54,841
So that in and of
itself says that
210
00:07:54,841 --> 00:07:57,243
she was at the lab
Tuesday morning.
211
00:07:57,243 --> 00:07:58,678
[keypad beeping]
212
00:07:58,678 --> 00:08:02,014
So police need to go to the lab.
213
00:08:02,014 --> 00:08:03,850
- [Alan] Investigators
beeline to her lab
214
00:08:03,850 --> 00:08:05,852
at the Amistad building
half a mile away
215
00:08:05,852 --> 00:08:07,119
and descend to the floor where
216
00:08:07,119 --> 00:08:09,956
animal experiments
are conducted.
217
00:08:10,356 --> 00:08:12,959
- [Det. Valentin] We go to her
lab and do a quick search.
218
00:08:12,959 --> 00:08:14,861
[light dramatic music]
219
00:08:14,861 --> 00:08:16,863
Check her workstation.
220
00:08:16,863 --> 00:08:18,197
There's no note.
221
00:08:18,197 --> 00:08:21,100
There's really nothing
of any evidentiary value.
222
00:08:22,335 --> 00:08:24,103
- [Alan] However,
the sheer magnitude
223
00:08:24,103 --> 00:08:27,874
of the lab security
doesn't go unnoticed.
224
00:08:27,874 --> 00:08:30,610
- Just about everything
from that space
225
00:08:30,610 --> 00:08:32,845
requires keycard access.
226
00:08:32,845 --> 00:08:36,249
Where all the animals were
kept required keycard access.
227
00:08:36,249 --> 00:08:39,685
Even the janitor's closet
required keycard access.
228
00:08:40,853 --> 00:08:41,821
[keypad beeping]
229
00:08:41,821 --> 00:08:45,725
[light dramatic music]
230
00:08:45,725 --> 00:08:47,760
investigators work
with building security
231
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,862
to get a log of the last time
232
00:08:49,862 --> 00:08:51,964
that Annie swiped
into her lab room,
233
00:08:51,964 --> 00:08:55,234
and the timing provides
a critical clue.
234
00:08:56,869 --> 00:08:58,738
- [Det. Valentin] We find out
that Annie
235
00:08:58,738 --> 00:09:01,908
swipes into her lab
at 10:11 that morning.
236
00:09:01,908 --> 00:09:02,875
[suspenseful music]
237
00:09:02,875 --> 00:09:05,244
So police quickly began
238
00:09:05,244 --> 00:09:07,780
looking at the
surveillance footage,
239
00:09:07,780 --> 00:09:10,049
and sure enough, we see Annie Le
240
00:09:10,049 --> 00:09:12,885
enter the building
shortly after 10:00 a.m.
241
00:09:12,885 --> 00:09:14,020
Once she's in the lab,
242
00:09:14,020 --> 00:09:16,289
you can't really see
where she's going,
243
00:09:16,289 --> 00:09:19,025
but we know what Annie was
wearing when she walked in.
244
00:09:19,025 --> 00:09:21,327
It's thankfully distinctive.
245
00:09:21,327 --> 00:09:23,729
It's a very bright green top.
246
00:09:23,729 --> 00:09:26,198
So can we see her leaving?
247
00:09:26,198 --> 00:09:27,800
- [Alan] Investigators
hold their breath
248
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,269
as they watch through
the security footage,
249
00:09:30,269 --> 00:09:32,738
and at around the
1:00 p.m. timestamp,
250
00:09:33,039 --> 00:09:34,941
they notice something unusual.
251
00:09:34,941 --> 00:09:36,008
[intense suspenseful music]
252
00:09:36,008 --> 00:09:38,744
- [Det. Valentin] All of a
sudden everybody leaves.

[fire alarm beeping]
254
00:09:39,879 --> 00:09:41,681
A alarm goes off
255
00:09:41,681 --> 00:09:43,883
and forces everybody
to leave the building.
256
00:09:44,817 --> 00:09:45,718
- [Agent Jacobson] Being
officers
257
00:09:45,718 --> 00:09:47,353
and thinking in an
investigative mind,
258
00:09:47,353 --> 00:09:50,022
this is some kind of diversion
259
00:09:50,022 --> 00:09:51,824
where somebody's
doing something,
260
00:09:51,824 --> 00:09:53,159
had to pull the fire alarm
261
00:09:53,159 --> 00:09:55,695
to get people out
of the building.
262
00:09:55,695 --> 00:09:57,463
- [Det. Valentin] As we sit
there and we watch
263
00:09:57,463 --> 00:09:58,698
everybody leave,
264
00:09:58,698 --> 00:10:01,233
we know what Annie was
wearing when she walked in,
265
00:10:01,233 --> 00:10:04,036
but we don't see her.

[striking dramatic music]
267
00:10:05,972 --> 00:10:07,173
And it's really confusing,
268
00:10:07,173 --> 00:10:08,908
because where did she go?
269
00:10:08,908 --> 00:10:10,242
[alarm continues beeping]
270
00:10:10,242 --> 00:10:11,978
She's still in the building.

[suspenseful music]

00:10:14,814 --> 00:10:16,248
- [Alan] Coming up.
273
00:10:16,248 --> 00:10:18,117
- [Agent Jacobson] What's going
on during that fire alarm
274
00:10:18,117 --> 00:10:19,852
that we're not seeing.
275
00:10:19,852 --> 00:10:21,487
- [Det. Valentin] It becomes
obvious
276
00:10:21,487 --> 00:10:23,823
that the laboratory
is a crime scene.
277
00:10:23,823 --> 00:10:26,459
- [Agent Jacobson] This is the
first sign of a violent attack.

- [Alan] Yale University grad
student Annie Le has disappeared
291
00:10:37,637 --> 00:10:40,573
after entering a highly
secured lab building on campus
292
00:10:40,573 --> 00:10:42,908
just days before her wedding.
293
00:10:42,908 --> 00:10:45,511
Nearly 24 hours after

entering her lab

it's a mystery that

00:10:51,450 --> 00:10:54,854
from three different
agencies confounded.
298
00:10:54,854 --> 00:10:55,821

[siren wailing in distance]
300
00:10:56,956 --> 00:10:59,291
- [Agent Jacobson] Annie sent an
email around 10 o'clock,
301
00:10:59,291 --> 00:11:01,527
and then the fire alarm
went off around 1:00,
302
00:11:01,527 --> 00:11:04,196
and there was no sign of
her at the fire alarm.
303
00:11:04,196 --> 00:11:05,965
So it was clear that
something had happened
304
00:11:05,965 --> 00:11:08,501
between that 10 o'clock
and the 1:00 o'clock time.
305
00:11:09,502 --> 00:11:11,837
- [Alan] Is there a
connection between the alarm
306
00:11:11,837 --> 00:11:13,973
and Annie's disappearance?
307
00:11:13,973 --> 00:11:17,343
Investigators find the
answer for what set it off.

00:11:17,343 --> 00:11:18,577
[dramatic music]
309
00:11:18,577 --> 00:11:20,446

and as a result everybody
has to evacuate.

[alarm continues beeping]
316
00:11:33,592 --> 00:11:35,995

and didn't exit the building,

00:11:37,863 --> 00:11:39,765
also bringing attention to them.
319
00:11:39,765 --> 00:11:40,599
Were they involved?
320
00:11:40,599 --> 00:11:41,634
Were they not involved?

[intense mysterious music]

00:11:42,835 --> 00:11:46,305

interrogating the researchers
323
00:11:46,305 --> 00:11:48,374
and examining the equipment,
324
00:11:48,374 --> 00:11:51,577
investigators are able
to verify the accident.
325
00:11:51,577 --> 00:11:54,013
But after clearing
Annie's colleagues,
326
00:11:54,013 --> 00:11:56,215
they're left back at square one.
327
00:11:56,749 --> 00:11:58,384
- [Det. Valentin] What had us
all stumped
328
00:11:58,384 --> 00:12:01,487
is we have this young
woman, Annie Le,
329
00:12:01,487 --> 00:12:05,391
who goes into this secure
building and she disappears.
330
00:12:07,026 --> 00:12:10,029
and we really started
to believe the worst.
331
00:12:10,029 --> 00:12:11,263
[dramatic instrumental music]
332
00:12:11,263 --> 00:12:12,498
- [Alan] Hoping for answers,
333
00:12:12,498 --> 00:12:16,368
investigators turn to Annie's
distraught fiancé Jonathan,
334
00:12:16,368 --> 00:12:19,238
who has just made the trip
to New Haven from New York.
335
00:12:20,673 --> 00:12:22,541
It's unlikely
Jonathan could have
336
00:12:22,541 --> 00:12:25,044
entered the lab
yesterday unnoticed,
337
00:12:25,044 --> 00:12:27,279
but to leave no stone unturned,
338
00:12:27,279 --> 00:12:29,648
the FBI asks him to take a
polygraph,
339
00:12:30,516 --> 00:12:32,251
which he passes.
340
00:12:33,152 --> 00:12:34,553
- [Agent Jacobson] There was no
video of him
341
00:12:34,553 --> 00:12:36,689
entering or exiting the lab.
342
00:12:36,689 --> 00:12:38,524
Also, we were able to confirm
343
00:12:38,524 --> 00:12:41,393
that he was out of
town at that time,
344
00:12:41,393 --> 00:12:43,896
and he was cleared
from the investigation.

- [Jennifer] I know Annie, and
she was dedicated to John.
348
00:12:49,935 --> 00:12:52,371
She loved him so much,
349
00:12:52,371 --> 00:12:54,306
and they had such a
great relationship.
350
00:12:54,306 --> 00:12:56,041
They were the sweetest couple,
351
00:12:56,041 --> 00:12:58,577

[suspenseful music]
354
00:13:03,449 --> 00:13:05,851
- [Det. Valentin] So at this
point we still don't know
355
00:13:05,851 --> 00:13:07,453
whether something's
happened to her
356
00:13:07,453 --> 00:13:09,688
or whether she's simply missing.
357
00:13:10,556 --> 00:13:13,325
- [Alan] Now they face
the exhaustive process
358
00:13:13,325 --> 00:13:16,595
of speaking with well over
100 employees and students
359
00:13:16,595 --> 00:13:18,597
who entered the lab that day.
360
00:13:18,597 --> 00:13:21,066
Without any evidence that
Annie left the building,
361
00:13:21,066 --> 00:13:22,735
they're confident that someone
362
00:13:22,735 --> 00:13:26,005
in the lab has
vital information.
363
00:13:26,005 --> 00:13:28,007
- [Agent Jacobson] There was a
364
00:13:28,007 --> 00:13:29,675
"When's the last
time you saw Annie?"
365
00:13:29,675 --> 00:13:31,744
"What was your
relationship with her?"
366
00:13:31,744 --> 00:13:33,479
[intense dramatic music]
367
00:13:33,479 --> 00:13:34,880
- It was a Wednesday.
368
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,615
As I enter the lab,
369
00:13:36,615 --> 00:13:39,118
I was greeted in my storage area
370
00:13:39,118 --> 00:13:42,354
by an officer and a detective.
371
00:13:42,354 --> 00:13:43,489
They showed me her picture,
372
00:13:43,489 --> 00:13:46,492
and right then and
there the hair stood up.
373
00:13:46,492 --> 00:13:49,495
And I'm like, "Oh
my, god, I know her.
374
00:13:49,495 --> 00:13:50,963
Oh, my god, I remember her."
375
00:13:50,963 --> 00:13:51,864
[light dramatic music]
376
00:13:51,864 --> 00:13:54,900
She would blow by
and, "Hey, hello."
377
00:13:54,900 --> 00:13:57,136
She made me feel
warm and welcome.
378
00:13:57,136 --> 00:13:59,972
That's when I was like
what could have happened?
379
00:13:59,972 --> 00:14:00,906
Her wedding is coming up.
380
00:14:00,906 --> 00:14:02,575
We got to find her.
We got to find her.
381
00:14:02,575 --> 00:14:04,844
[intense suspenseful music]
382
00:14:04,844 --> 00:14:06,512
- [Det. Valentin] While
conducting interviews,
383
00:14:06,512 --> 00:14:09,515
we speak to another PhD
researcher named Rachel.
384
00:14:09,515 --> 00:14:14,153
[ominous dramatic music]
385
00:14:14,153 --> 00:14:16,522
on a hygienic wipe container
386
00:14:16,522 --> 00:14:19,491
that's on a lab cart
in Annie Le's lab.
387
00:14:19,491 --> 00:14:21,994
[ominous music continues]
388
00:14:21,994 --> 00:14:23,762
- [Alan] Detectives
are finally finding
389
00:14:23,762 --> 00:14:27,032
a clue to suggest a
crime has taken place
390
00:14:27,032 --> 00:14:29,401
and quickly use an
alternate light source
391
00:14:29,401 --> 00:14:31,804
to look for more trace evidence.
392
00:14:31,804 --> 00:14:33,939
[ominous music continues]
393
00:14:33,939 --> 00:14:35,875
- [Det. Valentin] I found
something that was
394
00:14:35,875 --> 00:14:37,543
fluorescent on the wall,
395
00:14:37,543 --> 00:14:39,945
and it tested positive
with acid phosphatase.
396
00:14:39,945 --> 00:14:42,381
So it was potentially
seminal fluid.
397
00:14:43,482 --> 00:14:45,084
She's still missing,
398
00:14:45,084 --> 00:14:47,086
but the picture of what happened
399
00:14:47,086 --> 00:14:49,955
is starting to become
a little bit clearer.
400
00:14:49,955 --> 00:14:51,957
- [Alan] Despite
an emerging theory,
401
00:14:51,957 --> 00:14:54,960
investigators can't make
any assumptions yet.
402
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,429
So agents test the
blood-spattered box
403
00:14:57,429 --> 00:15:00,065
against items found
in Annie's home.
404
00:15:00,065 --> 00:15:03,102
- [Det. Valentin] Because of the
access that we had to the lab
405
00:15:03,102 --> 00:15:05,204
and the fact that we
didn't have to wait
406
00:15:05,204 --> 00:15:07,706
for any testing to be performed,
407
00:15:07,706 --> 00:15:09,208
blood samples that were found
408
00:15:09,208 --> 00:15:11,677
in the lab were
tested immediately,
409
00:15:11,677 --> 00:15:13,812
[suspenseful music]
410
00:15:13,812 --> 00:15:15,948
and they turned out
to be Annie's blood.
411
00:15:15,948 --> 00:15:18,050
[intense dramatic music]
412
00:15:18,050 --> 00:15:20,786
- [Agent Jacobson] This is the
first sign of a violent attack,
413
00:15:20,786 --> 00:15:22,221
we're starting
to realize that
414
00:15:22,221 --> 00:15:24,623
there's more to be told
from inside the lab.
415
00:15:26,125 --> 00:15:27,993
- [Det. Valentin] The more time
that passes
416
00:15:27,993 --> 00:15:29,862
and nobody hears from Annie,
417
00:15:29,862 --> 00:15:34,566
and there is no activity on
any credit cards or on a phone
418
00:15:34,566 --> 00:15:36,201
the more obvious it becomes
419
00:15:36,201 --> 00:15:37,870
[intense suspenseful music]
420
00:15:37,870 --> 00:15:39,605
that the laboratory
is a crime scene.
421
00:15:39,605 --> 00:15:43,475
[striking dramatic music]
422
00:15:43,475 --> 00:15:44,944
- [Alan] Despite
finding the blood,
423
00:15:44,944 --> 00:15:47,079
police are unable
to shut down the lab
424
00:15:47,079 --> 00:15:48,881
and declare it a crime scene
425
00:15:48,881 --> 00:15:51,684
due to the ongoing experiments.
426
00:15:51,684 --> 00:15:52,952
- [Det. Valentin] There's a very
delicate balance
427
00:15:52,952 --> 00:15:55,020
that we are trying
to strike between
428
00:15:55,020 --> 00:15:57,489
conducting an
unfettered investigation
429
00:15:57,489 --> 00:16:01,126
and being mindful of
the research projects.
430
00:16:01,126 --> 00:16:02,861
[dramatic music]
431
00:16:02,861 --> 00:16:04,763
[birds squawking]
432
00:16:04,763 --> 00:16:07,633
- [Melissa] Whenever I entered
10 Amistad,
433
00:16:07,633 --> 00:16:09,168
the feeling was uneasy.
434
00:16:09,168 --> 00:16:10,569
[uneasy dramatic music]
435
00:16:10,569 --> 00:16:12,638
The building is very busy.
436
00:16:12,638 --> 00:16:15,007
Laboratory people, scientists,
437
00:16:15,007 --> 00:16:16,976
students that work in the lab,
438
00:16:16,976 --> 00:16:19,011
and then us custodians,
439
00:16:19,011 --> 00:16:20,279
[cart squeaking]
440
00:16:20,279 --> 00:16:22,047
they looked at us as suspects,
441
00:16:22,047 --> 00:16:23,916
and we looked at
them as suspects.
442
00:16:23,916 --> 00:16:25,718
[intense dramatic music]
443
00:16:25,718 --> 00:16:27,486
It was nerve-racking.
444
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,189
Nobody trusted anybody.
445
00:16:30,189 --> 00:16:32,624
[striking dramatic music]
446
00:16:32,624 --> 00:16:34,760
- [Alan] Following the lead
where the blood was found,
447
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,262
detectives narrowed
their focus to determine
448
00:16:37,262 --> 00:16:39,665
who else had access
to Annie's lab room
449
00:16:39,665 --> 00:16:41,867
on the day of her disappearance.
450
00:16:41,867 --> 00:16:43,068
[tense dramatic music]
451
00:16:43,068 --> 00:16:45,204
- [Det. Valentin] Annie swipes
into her lab
452
00:16:45,204 --> 00:16:47,172
at 10:11 that morning.
453
00:16:47,172 --> 00:16:50,142
We find out that
after Annie swipes in,
454
00:16:50,142 --> 00:16:53,545
there are four more people
who swipe their cards
455
00:16:53,545 --> 00:16:55,781
and gain access to
that same laboratory.
456
00:16:55,781 --> 00:16:57,182
[ominous music]
457
00:16:57,182 --> 00:16:58,550
[keypad beeping]
458
00:16:58,550 --> 00:17:03,088
So one of the people who swipes
into Annie's lab was Rachel,
459
00:17:03,088 --> 00:17:04,757
the same person who
actually noticed
460
00:17:04,757 --> 00:17:07,226
the bloodstains on the box.
461
00:17:07,226 --> 00:17:09,762
Another person that
goes into Annie's lab
462
00:17:09,762 --> 00:17:11,563
after she does is Tim.
463
00:17:11,563 --> 00:17:12,231
[keypad beeping]
464
00:17:12,231 --> 00:17:14,233
He's a Yale postdoc.
465
00:17:14,233 --> 00:17:17,269
Then one of the animal care
technicians named Ray Clark.
466
00:17:18,237 --> 00:17:20,239
[keypad beeping]
467
00:17:20,239 --> 00:17:22,207
- [Agnet Jacobson] So there
were four people that went
468
00:17:22,207 --> 00:17:25,110
in the same area
that Annie had gone,
469
00:17:25,110 --> 00:17:27,980
three that were regular
lab fellow employees.
470
00:17:27,980 --> 00:17:29,848
- [Alan] The fourth
person who swipes
471
00:17:29,848 --> 00:17:34,253
is revealed to be an HVAC
contractor named Larry Godfrey.
472
00:17:34,253 --> 00:17:36,055
[intense foreboding music]
473
00:17:36,055 --> 00:17:39,691
- [Det. Valentin] Larry Godfrey
has access to the entire floor,
474
00:17:39,691 --> 00:17:43,562
every lab, every
passageway, every duct.
475
00:17:43,862 --> 00:17:45,664
That raises a red flag.
476
00:17:45,664 --> 00:17:47,966
[suspenseful music]
477
00:17:47,966 --> 00:17:50,602
- [Alan] As investigators set
out to bring Larry Godfrey
478
00:17:50,602 --> 00:17:51,870
in for an interview,
479
00:17:51,870 --> 00:17:53,605
they encounter a problem.
480
00:17:53,605 --> 00:17:55,240
[intense dramatic music]
481
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:56,742
- [Det. Valentin] But when they
call Larry,
482
00:17:56,742 --> 00:17:58,744
they can't get him on the phone,
483
00:17:58,744 --> 00:18:00,712
and when they try to
find out where he lives,
484
00:18:00,712 --> 00:18:02,581
they don't have a
good address for him.
485
00:18:02,748 --> 00:18:04,149
- [Alan] Subsequent
interviews with other
486
00:18:04,149 --> 00:18:06,885
workers at the lab
raise further concerns.
487
00:18:06,885 --> 00:18:07,953
[suspenseful orchestral music]
488
00:18:07,953 --> 00:18:09,721
- [Det. Valentin] Several of the
female researchers
489
00:18:09,721 --> 00:18:11,290
in the laboratory
had reported that
490
00:18:11,290 --> 00:18:14,393
he had generally made
them feel uncomfortable.
491
00:18:14,393 --> 00:18:17,863
- [Dave] Larry had been working
there for several months
492
00:18:17,863 --> 00:18:21,834
and had access to all the
labs and all the rooms.
493
00:18:21,834 --> 00:18:22,835
[suspenseful music continues]
494
00:18:22,835 --> 00:18:24,169
[keypad beeping]
495
00:18:24,169 --> 00:18:26,905
- [Det. Valentin] He swiped into
the lab after Annie did.
496
00:18:26,905 --> 00:18:28,907
And this is the person
that several people
497
00:18:28,907 --> 00:18:31,276
in the labs said made
them feel uncomfortable.
498
00:18:31,276 --> 00:18:34,146
- [Agent Jacobson] He is at the
top of the suspect list,
499
00:18:34,146 --> 00:18:36,181
and now everything becomes about
500
00:18:36,181 --> 00:18:38,183
tracking down Larry Godfrey.

Annie Le yields nefarious

He swiped into the

00:19:37,576 --> 00:19:40,078
would have been in the
lab doing their work.
537
00:19:40,078 --> 00:19:41,580
- [Det. Valentin] We spoke to
Rachel.
538
00:19:41,580 --> 00:19:43,348
We spoke to Tim.
539
00:19:43,348 --> 00:19:45,217
Neither of them had seen Annie
540
00:19:45,217 --> 00:19:48,487
when they went into that
room that afternoon.
541
00:19:48,487 --> 00:19:50,589
- [Alan] Neith
542
00:19:50,589 --> 00:19:53,725
arrived at the lab that
day until after 1:30,
543
00:19:53,725 --> 00:19:56,428
well after the
building evacuation.
544
00:19:56,428 --> 00:19:57,696
- If they're telling
us the truth,
545
00:19:57,696 --> 00:19:59,498
the fact that they
didn't see her
546
00:19:59,498 --> 00:20:02,568
when they went into that
room is very useful,
547
00:20:02,568 --> 00:20:05,270
because it begins to
give us a window of time
548
00:20:06,371 --> 00:20:08,106
for what might have happened.
549
00:20:08,106 --> 00:20:12,511
[eerie dramatic music]
550
00:20:12,511 --> 00:20:15,380
is one of the animal care
technicians named Ray Clark.
551
00:20:15,380 --> 00:20:16,248
[keypad beeping]
552
00:20:16,248 --> 00:20:17,349
- [Agent Jacobson] Ray worked at
the lab.
553
00:20:17,349 --> 00:20:18,750
He was an animal tech,
554
00:20:18,750 --> 00:20:21,653
and he would do things like
keep the animals alive,
555
00:20:21,653 --> 00:20:25,090
feed them, clean the cages,
remove any dead animals.
556
00:20:25,824 --> 00:20:27,526
- [Det. Valentin] So we
interviewed him,
557
00:20:27,526 --> 00:20:31,129
and he says he leaves
for lunch at about 12:45,
558
00:20:31,129 --> 00:20:32,331
and he says that
he saw Annie leave
559
00:20:32,331 --> 00:20:34,566
about 15 minutes before that.
560
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,236
- [Alan] If Ray's
statement is accurate,
561
00:20:37,236 --> 00:20:38,670
Annie left the
building well before
562
00:20:38,670 --> 00:20:41,273
the fire alarm was
tripped at 1:00 p.m.
563
00:20:41,273 --> 00:20:42,641
[alarm beeping]
564
00:20:42,641 --> 00:20:46,745
- [Det. Valentin] If she left,
565
00:20:46,945 --> 00:20:48,614
- [Alan] When they
revisit the footage,
566
00:20:48,614 --> 00:20:53,318
they don't see Ray leave for
lunch at 12:45 as he claimed.
567
00:20:54,386 --> 00:20:56,388
However, they do
find him evacuating
568
00:20:56,388 --> 00:20:57,856
at 1:00 p.m. with the others.
569
00:20:59,391 --> 00:21:00,659
- [Det. Valentin] So in this
situation,
570
00:21:00,659 --> 00:21:03,528
if what we are being
told is not true,
571
00:21:03,528 --> 00:21:05,130
we have to wonder why.
572
00:21:05,831 --> 00:21:07,366
Is it an innocent mistake,
573
00:21:07,366 --> 00:21:08,834
or is there something
574
00:21:08,834 --> 00:21:11,403
more sinister at play here?
575
00:21:11,403 --> 00:21:13,305
[intense sinister music]
576
00:21:13,305 --> 00:21:17,409
So what becomes
really interesting is
577
00:21:17,409 --> 00:21:19,177
what Ray Clark is doing
578
00:21:19,177 --> 00:21:21,713
at the time everybody
leaves the building.
579
00:21:21,713 --> 00:21:24,316
[eerie dramatic music]
580
00:21:24,316 --> 00:21:26,685
Just about everybody who
leaves the Amistad building
581
00:21:26,685 --> 00:21:29,855
because of the alarm
is sitting outside
582
00:21:29,855 --> 00:21:33,725
enjoying the few minutes
of rest, I suppose.
583
00:21:33,725 --> 00:21:35,794
Ray Clark can be seen
584
00:21:35,794 --> 00:21:38,864
sitting with his
head in his hands,
585
00:21:40,666 --> 00:21:42,301
on his shoulders.
586
00:21:42,301 --> 00:21:43,702
[suspenseful music]
587
00:21:43,702 --> 00:21:46,271
- [Alan] Now detectives
are left wondering:
588
00:21:46,271 --> 00:21:48,206
Is Ray merely having a bad day,
589
00:21:48,206 --> 00:21:51,743
or could he have something to
do with Annie's disappearance?
590
00:21:51,743 --> 00:21:55,347
They take note of his demeanor
as well as the discrepancy
591
00:21:55,347 --> 00:21:58,684
in his statements, then rush
to pinpoint the movements
592
00:21:58,684 --> 00:22:02,621
of their other person of
interest, Larry Godfrey.
593
00:22:02,621 --> 00:22:04,489
- [Agent Jacobson] Larry Godfrey
and Ray
594
00:22:04,489 --> 00:22:05,624
were kind of sticking out,
595
00:22:05,624 --> 00:22:07,225
but more Larry.
596
00:22:07,225 --> 00:22:10,562
There was some talk about
Larry being a little creepy.
597
00:22:10,562 --> 00:22:12,531
Larry stuck out as a suspect.
598
00:22:13,565 --> 00:22:16,635
[light dramatic music]
599
00:22:16,635 --> 00:22:20,739
that maybe Annie was snuck out
of the lab at some point,
600
00:22:20,739 --> 00:22:23,508
and we just missed
it on the footage.
601
00:22:23,508 --> 00:22:24,876
- [Alan] At 11:33 a.m.
602
00:22:24,876 --> 00:22:26,645
they spot Larry
entering the building,
603
00:22:26,645 --> 00:22:30,582
and at 2:36 p.m. he exits.
604
00:22:30,582 --> 00:22:31,917
- [Det. Valentin] Is Larry
carrying a suitcase?
605
00:22:31,917 --> 00:22:33,318
Is he pushing a cart?
606
00:22:33,318 --> 00:22:34,519
What is he doing?
607
00:22:34,519 --> 00:22:35,520
- [Det. Valentin] And
specifically
608
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,589
when we saw Larry leave,
609
00:22:37,589 --> 00:22:40,892
[eerie suspenseful music]
610
00:22:40,892 --> 00:22:43,428
we realized he couldn't
have snuck her out.
611
00:22:45,797 --> 00:22:48,533
- [Alan] It appears that
neither Larry nor Ray
612
00:22:48,533 --> 00:22:50,936
could have removed
Annie from the building,
613
00:22:50,936 --> 00:22:54,406
but that does not clear them
of any wrongdoing inside.
614
00:22:54,406 --> 00:22:56,274
And of their top two
persons of interest,
615
00:22:56,274 --> 00:22:59,511
only one of them seems
to be evading police.
616
00:22:59,845 --> 00:23:02,614
- [Det. Valentin] Larry is
somewhat transient.
617
00:23:02,614 --> 00:23:04,549
And based on the contracting
work that he does,
618
00:23:04,549 --> 00:23:06,284
he moves around quite a bit.
619
00:23:06,284 --> 00:23:10,956
So him having this
less-than-stable home address
620
00:23:10,956 --> 00:23:12,824
does raise a red flag.
621
00:23:12,824 --> 00:23:15,527
[intense dramatic music]
622
00:23:15,527 --> 00:23:16,495
- [Alan] Finally,
623
00:23:16,495 --> 00:23:19,431
on Wednesday evening,
they track him down.
624
00:23:19,431 --> 00:23:22,868
- [Det. Valentin
625
00:23:23,769 --> 00:23:25,303
and he's interviewed.
626
00:23:25,303 --> 00:23:28,573
He provides consent for
his room to be searched,
627
00:23:28,573 --> 00:23:30,308
for his van to be searched.
628
00:23:30,308 --> 00:23:33,979
[suspenseful music]
629
00:23:33,979 --> 00:23:37,716
We looked through his
cleaning equipment and supplies.
630
00:23:37,716 --> 00:23:41,787
[suspenseful music intensifies]
631
00:23:42,587 --> 00:23:43,955
Nothing suspicious.
632
00:23:44,689 --> 00:23:46,458
At the conclusion
of all of that,
633
00:23:46,458 --> 00:23:48,593
the police just asked
Larry to stay around
634
00:23:48,593 --> 00:23:50,662
just in case we'd like
to talk to him again,
635
00:23:50,662 --> 00:23:54,399
and he also voluntarily
supplies a DNA sample.
636
00:23:54,399 --> 00:23:55,567
[light dramatic music]
637
00:23:55,567 --> 00:23:58,737
- [Alan] Detectives can't
write Larry off completely,
638
00:23:58,737 --> 00:24:01,306
but they have to move
on to other leads.
639
00:24:02,674 --> 00:24:04,342
[gentle dramatic music]
640
00:24:04,342 --> 00:24:05,177
By the next morning,
641
00:24:05,177 --> 00:24:07,712
Annie has been
missing for 48 hours,
642
00:24:07,712 --> 00:24:09,881
and her disappearance is
getting a lot of attention
643
00:24:09,881 --> 00:24:12,684
throughout the Yale
community and beyond.
644
00:24:13,452 --> 00:24:14,586
- [Jennifer] We just wanted to
find her.
645
00:24:14,586 --> 00:24:17,856
We wanted to get to the
bottom of what was happening,
646
00:24:18,757 --> 00:24:23,562
but we knew this is something
probably more sinister.
647
00:24:24,463 --> 00:24:27,699
- [Alan] Investigators take
advantage of the media attention
648
00:24:27,699 --> 00:24:29,734
by making a direct
appeal to the public.
649
00:24:30,502 --> 00:24:32,571
- [David] They released the
photo of her
650
00:24:32,571 --> 00:24:33,972
walking into the building,
651
00:24:33,972 --> 00:24:37,476
and then they also put
that on billboards on
652
00:24:37,476 --> 00:24:39,845
the major highways coming
in and out of New Haven.
653
00:24:39,845 --> 00:24:43,615
[somber dramatic music]
654
00:24:43,615 --> 00:24:45,717
- [Melissa] Everybody was
holding vigils.
655
00:24:47,118 --> 00:24:48,920
Everybody felt it.
656
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,356
Even if you didn't know her,
657
00:24:52,057 --> 00:24:54,426
it was a sad situation.
658
00:24:55,060 --> 00:24:59,097
[dramatic instrumental music]
659
00:25:00,665 --> 00:25:02,667
- [David] Well, now we're
three full days
660
00:25:02,667 --> 00:25:04,169
since she's been missing.
661
00:25:04,169 --> 00:25:06,638
Annie's blood was
found in the lab.
662
00:25:06,638 --> 00:25:08,507
[striking dramatic music]
663
00:25:08,507 --> 00:25:10,509
They're now focused
on the fact that
664
00:25:10,509 --> 00:25:12,911
whatever happened to her
happened to her in the lab.
665
00:25:12,911 --> 00:25:14,613
[dramatic instrumental music]
666
00:25:14,613 --> 00:25:15,814
- [Det. Valentin] We're looking
through
667
00:25:15,814 --> 00:25:17,549
all the other floors
of the building
668
00:25:17,549 --> 00:25:20,018
again and again for
any signs of Annie,
669
00:25:20,018 --> 00:25:21,520
and there isn't anything.
670
00:25:23,421 --> 00:25:25,090
- [Alan] That's when Yale
custodian
671
00:25:25,090 --> 00:25:26,825
Mellisa Dunkley notices
672
00:25:26,825 --> 00:25:31,563
some things are amiss inside
a basement storage closet.
673
00:25:31,563 --> 00:25:34,032
- [Melissa] So G22, our storage
unit,
674
00:25:34,032 --> 00:25:36,067
is only used by us custodians.
675
00:25:36,902 --> 00:25:39,771
HVAC sometimes stored
machines in it.
676
00:25:39,771 --> 00:25:40,839
[tense dramatic music]
677
00:25:40,839 --> 00:25:43,575
When I went to go
get my supplies,
678
00:25:43,575 --> 00:25:45,710
I just noticed the
drain was open.
679
00:25:45,710 --> 00:25:48,547
So I goes down to close it,
680
00:25:48,547 --> 00:25:50,682
and I could smell the bleach
coming up from the drain.
681
00:25:50,682 --> 00:25:52,584
[dramatic music continues]
682
00:25:52,584 --> 00:25:53,685
We're not allowed to use bleach.
683
00:25:53,685 --> 00:25:54,986
[tense suspenseful music]
684
00:25:54,986 --> 00:25:57,789
At the time, we had
just went green,
685
00:25:57,789 --> 00:25:59,925
so if somebody
was to use bleach,
686
00:25:59,925 --> 00:26:02,060
like, you can be fired.
687
00:26:02,060 --> 00:26:04,596
- [Alan] The taboo
of using bleach
688
00:26:04,596 --> 00:26:06,464
is widely known among employees
689
00:26:06,464 --> 00:26:08,600
and contractors alike.
690
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,069
Mellisa immediately
alerts detectives.
691
00:26:11,069 --> 00:26:13,872
[tense dramatic music]
692
00:26:13,872 --> 00:26:15,874
I use this reagent,
693
00:26:15,874 --> 00:26:17,709
and when I use it
around the drain,
694
00:26:17,709 --> 00:26:20,478
I get the characteristic
color change,
695
00:26:20,478 --> 00:26:23,682
which lets me know that
there's blood in this area.
696
00:26:23,682 --> 00:26:25,584
[striking dramatic music]
697
00:26:25,584 --> 00:26:26,718
Something bad happened here.
698
00:26:26,718 --> 00:26:31,222
Because we had bloodstains
found earlier in her lab,
699
00:26:31,923 --> 00:26:35,126
and now we're in a
different room entirely,
700
00:26:35,126 --> 00:26:36,928
and we're finding
more bloodstains.
701
00:26:37,629 --> 00:26:39,831
- [Alan] And two people
who entered Annie's lab
702
00:26:39,831 --> 00:26:42,834
also have access to
the storage closet:
703
00:26:42,834 --> 00:26:44,502
animal tech Ray Clark
704
00:26:44,502 --> 00:26:47,505
and HVAC contractor
Larry Godfrey.
705
00:26:47,505 --> 00:26:49,007
- [Det. Valentin] Sure does look
like
706
00:26:49,007 --> 00:26:50,976
the attempt to
cover something up.
707
00:26:51,576 --> 00:26:53,878
- [Agent Jacobson] To have been
able to cover it up,
708
00:26:53,878 --> 00:26:56,648
the perpetrator had to
be from within the lab.
709
00:26:56,648 --> 00:27:00,251

718
00:27:04,189 --> 00:27:06,091
- [Alan] It's been three days
since anyone has seen
719
00:27:06,091 --> 00:27:10,095
24-year-old Yale grad
student Annie Le,
720
00:27:10,095 --> 00:27:13,231
but detectives have just
made a chilling discovery,
721
00:27:13,231 --> 00:27:15,133
another room with more blood.
722
00:27:15,133 --> 00:27:17,068
[ominous music]
723
00:27:17,068 --> 00:27:19,004
- [Det. Valentin] It sure does
look like
724
00:27:19,004 --> 00:27:22,073
the attempt to cover
something up, but what?
725
00:27:22,073 --> 00:27:23,642
[suspenseful music]
726
00:27:23,642 --> 00:27:26,244
- [Melissa] It was weird because
evidence is showing up,
727
00:27:26,244 --> 00:27:27,946
but she's not.
728
00:27:27,946 --> 00:27:32,083
How can somebody
disappear without leaving
729
00:27:32,083 --> 00:27:33,618
[striking suspenseful music]
730
00:27:33,618 --> 00:27:36,287
and maybe the killer
is still here.
731
00:27:36,287 --> 00:27:38,089
[suspenseful music intensifying]
732
00:27:38,089 --> 00:27:39,557
- [Alan] Detectives
continue following
733
00:27:39,557 --> 00:27:42,093
the breadcrumbs of
the keycard swipes.
734
00:27:42,727 --> 00:27:46,398
- [Det. Valentin] One person who
accessed that storage closet
735
00:27:46,398 --> 00:27:50,402
was Ray Clark, one of the
animal care technicians.
736
00:27:51,903 --> 00:27:53,405
- [Agent Jacobson] The day of
her disappearance,
737
00:27:53,405 --> 00:27:55,874
he's in that storage
room 11 times.
738
00:27:56,608 --> 00:27:58,309
- [Det. Valentin] Now, is that
unusual?
739
00:27:58,309 --> 00:27:59,978
Well, we don't know yet.
740
00:27:59,978 --> 00:28:02,113
Now his responsibility
is the care
741
00:28:02,113 --> 00:28:03,581
and maintenance of the animals.
742
00:28:03,581 --> 00:28:06,251
So what's his normal usage
743
00:28:06,751 --> 00:28:09,521
of his keycard to
get into this room.
744
00:28:09,521 --> 00:28:14,125
In the 10 days prior
to Annie going missing,
745
00:28:14,125 --> 00:28:18,563
he'd only used his keycard
three times to enter that room,
746
00:28:18,563 --> 00:28:22,434
so that really makes
him significant to us.
747
00:28:22,434 --> 00:28:24,536
[suspenseful instrumental music]
748
00:28:24,536 --> 00:28:26,204
- [Alan] At the lab,
Ray is known for being
749
00:28:26,204 --> 00:28:28,940
almost obsessive
about cleanliness,
750
00:28:28,940 --> 00:28:31,309
but for the last five
years that has made him
751
00:28:31,309 --> 00:28:33,578
a dependable employee.
752
00:28:33,578 --> 00:28:36,381
- Clark certainly did not
have a criminal record,
753
00:28:36,748 --> 00:28:39,451
had a job at Yale
for five years.
754
00:28:40,218 --> 00:28:43,455
- [Agent Jacobson] So along
with Ray being the animal tech,
755
00:28:43,455 --> 00:28:45,290
his fiancée also worked there.
756
00:28:45,290 --> 00:28:47,225
If Annie was
snatched due to some
757
00:28:47,225 --> 00:28:49,561
kind of misconstrued
love interest,
758
00:28:49,561 --> 00:28:52,330
it didn't seem like
Ray fit that profile.
759
00:28:52,330 --> 00:28:54,966
[intense dramatic music]
760
00:28:54,966 --> 00:28:57,068
- [Melissa] He stayed to his
self a lot.
761
00:28:57,068 --> 00:28:57,736
He was a lab tech,
762
00:28:57,736 --> 00:28:59,437
so he didn't have a office.
763
00:28:59,437 --> 00:29:01,706
So he was basically like
a custodian like me.
764
00:29:02,540 --> 00:29:05,710
- [Alan] Agents decide to
sit down with Ray's fiancée,
765
00:29:05,710 --> 00:29:07,378
a fellow staff member.
766
00:29:07,378 --> 00:29:09,481
She says Ray has
never been violent,
767
00:29:09,481 --> 00:29:11,983
and that there must
be an explanation
768
00:29:11,983 --> 00:29:14,219
for his unusual activity.
769
00:29:14,219 --> 00:29:16,387
[dramatic instrumental music]
770
00:29:16,387 --> 00:29:18,356
On Friday evening,
they sit down with Ray
771
00:29:18,356 --> 00:29:20,325
to ask more questions.
772
00:29:21,459 --> 00:29:22,327
- [Agent Jacobson] Ray states
773
00:29:22,327 --> 00:29:24,095
that he didn't have a
relationship
774
00:29:24,095 --> 00:29:26,097
with Annie outside of the lab.
775
00:29:26,097 --> 00:29:28,133
He didn't find any reason
776
00:29:28,133 --> 00:29:30,101
why anybody would
want to hurt Annie.
777
00:29:31,169 --> 00:29:34,072
- [Alan] As for his multiple
visits to the supply closet
778
00:29:34,072 --> 00:29:36,007
the day of Annie's
disappearance,
779
00:29:36,007 --> 00:29:37,509
Ray shrugs it off.
780
00:29:38,042 --> 00:29:40,545
- [David] He basically says,
781
00:29:40,545 --> 00:29:42,113
"I went in there a lot that day
782
00:29:42,113 --> 00:29:43,648
because I was getting supplies,
783
00:29:43,648 --> 00:29:47,152
and I'm just one
of many technicians
784
00:29:47,152 --> 00:29:49,521
that has to go in that room."
785
00:29:49,521 --> 00:29:51,422
Ray Clark legitimately
786
00:29:51,422 --> 00:29:53,358
did have access to
the storage room,
787
00:29:53,358 --> 00:29:56,127
but 11 times seemed a
little bit of a stretch.
788
00:29:56,761 --> 00:29:59,397
- [Alan] Ray's movements
may be unusual,
789
00:29:59,397 --> 00:30:01,699
but investigators need
more physical evidence
790
00:30:01,699 --> 00:30:03,168
before they can implicate him
791
00:30:03,168 --> 00:30:04,669
for Annie's disappearance.
792
00:30:04,669 --> 00:30:06,171
[dramatic instrumental music]
793
00:30:06,171 --> 00:30:08,173
- [Agent Jacobson] We began to
follow him around.
794
00:30:08,173 --> 00:30:10,408
He comes off as pretty normal,
795
00:30:10,408 --> 00:30:14,045
going home, going to the
park to play baseball.
796
00:30:14,045 --> 00:30:17,248
He did go out with his
fiancée at one point,
797
00:30:17,248 --> 00:30:19,150
but it definitely
makes you think like,
798
00:30:19,150 --> 00:30:21,186
"Ah, are we on
the right person?"
799
00:30:21,186 --> 00:30:26,257
[dramatic music]
800
00:30:26,257 --> 00:30:29,060
investigators work
round the clock.
801
00:30:29,060 --> 00:30:30,161
With each hour that passes,
802
00:30:30,161 --> 00:30:34,065
the chance that Annie is
found alive is dwindling.
803
00:30:34,065 --> 00:30:35,733
- [Det. Valentin] We believe
something happens to her
804
00:30:35,733 --> 00:30:39,204
in the lab, but where is
she now?
805
00:30:39,204 --> 00:30:42,607
We still don't have any
answers to those questions,
806
00:30:42,607 --> 00:30:45,844
and we don't know
where her body is.
807
00:30:45,844 --> 00:30:47,478
We don't even know
if she's dead.
808
00:30:47,478 --> 00:30:51,082
[suspenseful music]
809
00:30:51,082 --> 00:30:52,617
- [Alan] Then at around midnight
810
00:30:52,617 --> 00:30:54,419
on Sunday, September the 13th,
811
00:30:54,419 --> 00:30:58,623
an officer alerts
detectives to a foul smell.
812
00:30:58,623 --> 00:31:00,758
- [Det. Valentin] The Yale
police officer noticed that
813
00:31:00,758 --> 00:31:03,194
there's an odor coming
from the men's room.
814
00:31:03,194 --> 00:31:08,700
[dramatic music]
815
00:31:09,367 --> 00:31:12,203
There was no doubt in
my mind what it was.
816
00:31:12,203 --> 00:31:14,372
It's the odor of
human decomposition,
817
00:31:14,372 --> 00:31:16,107
[intense dramatic music]
818
00:31:16,107 --> 00:31:19,644
but we can't really figure
out where it was coming from.
819
00:31:19,644 --> 00:31:20,645
[police dog barking]
820
00:31:20,645 --> 00:31:23,114
We have one of our cadaver dogs
821
00:31:23,114 --> 00:31:26,384
come to the scene
and search the room.
822
00:31:26,384 --> 00:31:29,454
[suspenseful music]
823
00:31:31,456 --> 00:31:33,258
[police dog barking]
824
00:31:33,258 --> 00:31:35,660
- [Agent Jacobson] A dog does go
over and sit next to a toilet,
825
00:31:35,660 --> 00:31:37,195
and the dog won't move.
826
00:31:37,195 --> 00:31:38,663
[intense ominous music]
827
00:31:38,663 --> 00:31:40,531
And there's a small metal door
828
00:31:40,531 --> 00:31:42,834
in the wall covering up a hole.
829
00:31:43,334 --> 00:31:47,205
- [Det. Valentin] An access
panel behind the toilet.
830
00:31:47,205 --> 00:31:51,609
The door was about
one foot square.
831
00:31:51,609 --> 00:31:52,877
[tense dramatic music]
832
00:31:52,877 --> 00:31:54,812
- [Alan] Investigators
carefully unscrew
833
00:31:54,812 --> 00:31:57,248
and open the wall panel.
834
00:31:57,248 --> 00:31:58,917
[intense suspenseful music]
835
00:31:58,917 --> 00:32:01,920
- [Det. Valentin] Once we open
the door, the odor was there,
836
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:03,755
[suspenseful music continues]
837
00:32:03,755 --> 00:32:05,924
and I look inside the hole,
838
00:32:05,924 --> 00:32:08,159
[striking dramatic music]
839
00:32:08,159 --> 00:32:09,294
and I see a foot.
840
00:32:09,294 --> 00:32:10,561
[striking music continues]
841
00:32:10,561 --> 00:32:11,396

00:32:18,036 --> 00:32:19,704
- [Alan] The week-long
search for Annie Le
854
00:32:19,704 --> 00:32:22,573
in Yale's Amistad
lab is now over
855
00:32:22,573 --> 00:32:24,809
with a shocking discovery.
856
00:32:24,809 --> 00:32:26,945
Now investigators
shift their focus
857
00:32:26,945 --> 00:32:30,248
on carefully removing
her body from the wall.
858
00:32:30,248 --> 00:32:32,250
[light dramatic music]
859
00:32:32,250 --> 00:32:33,918
- [Det. Valentin] This is the
first time any of us
860
00:32:33,918 --> 00:32:36,921
have ever seen a body hidden
in the wall,
861
00:32:36,921 --> 00:32:39,857
and there's no
protocol for this.
862
00:32:39,857 --> 00:32:41,259
In fact, our medical examiner
863
00:32:41,259 --> 00:32:43,261
was present on scene with us,
864
00:32:43,261 --> 00:32:46,331
which is extraordinarily rare.
865
00:32:46,331 --> 00:32:47,865
He was watching us.
866
00:32:47,865 --> 00:32:50,601
As I am certain it was
unprecedented for him
867
00:32:50,601 --> 00:32:54,839
and his office as well to
do this kind of recovery.
868
00:32:55,273 --> 00:32:58,242
We complete this arduous process
869
00:32:58,242 --> 00:33:00,611
of carefully
disassembling the wall,
870
00:33:00,611 --> 00:33:03,715
because we want to be careful
not to create too much dust,
871
00:33:03,715 --> 00:33:07,151
because that'll obviously
contaminate our scene.
872
00:33:07,151 --> 00:33:09,120
We document her body position.
873
00:33:09,921 --> 00:33:12,890
We took swabs of DNA
from the bathroom,
874
00:33:12,890 --> 00:33:15,760
and we carefully remove her.
875
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:20,031
And the medical examiner
takes her back to his office
876
00:33:20,031 --> 00:33:23,768
so that they can perform the
typical autopsy the next day.
877
00:33:23,768 --> 00:33:27,372
[striking dramatic music]
878
00:33:29,140 --> 00:33:31,175
- [Alan] Investigators
send off the swabs

00:33:31,175 --> 00:33:34,645
from inside the mechanical
chase for processing.
880
00:33:34,645 --> 00:33:36,314
Meanwhile, Annie's loved ones
881
00:33:36,314 --> 00:33:38,783
must accept the
horrifying reality.

[somber dramatic music]
883
00:33:39,984 --> 00:33:41,719
- [David] As the news trickled
out,
884
00:33:41,719 --> 00:33:46,391
any hope that she was gonna
turn up was obviously now gone,
885
00:33:46,391 --> 00:33:50,628
and the reality set in that
she had been brutally murdered.
886
00:33:52,063 --> 00:33:54,432
[tense dramatic music]
887
00:33:54,432 --> 00:33:57,368

and I said, "Where?"
889
00:34:01,873 --> 00:34:03,875
They said, "In the wall."
890
00:34:03,875 --> 00:34:06,144
[rain splashes softly]
[somber dramatic music]
891
00:34:06,144 --> 00:34:07,645
I just started crying.
892
00:34:08,780 --> 00:34:11,015
She was there the whole time.
893
00:34:13,885 --> 00:34:15,920
- [Jennifer] My phone rings.
894
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,457
It's Annie's younger
brother on the other line,
895
00:34:19,457 --> 00:34:24,662
and he asks me if
I am in a place
896
00:34:25,063 --> 00:34:28,766
where he can give me some news,
897
00:34:28,766 --> 00:34:31,803
and he shares the news with
me that Annie had been found,
898
00:34:33,704 --> 00:34:36,707
the manner of which
her body was found
899
00:34:36,707 --> 00:34:37,942
and where it was found.
900
00:34:42,847 --> 00:34:46,250
It was quite
disturbing and painful.
901
00:34:46,250 --> 00:34:49,687
[somber dramatic music]
902
00:34:50,455 --> 00:34:53,324
She's supposed to be
getting married on this day,
903
00:34:53,324 --> 00:34:58,362
and yet it turns out to be
the day that they find her.
904
00:34:59,964 --> 00:35:04,869
- [Meliisa] You find a very
smart, prestigious
905
00:35:04,869 --> 00:35:08,806
young lady in a wall
on her wedding day,
906
00:35:08,806 --> 00:35:09,807
that touched home.
907
00:35:10,675 --> 00:35:12,977
- [David] Everybody realizes
it's someone that
908
00:35:12,977 --> 00:35:14,946
has some affiliation
with the school.
909
00:35:14,946 --> 00:35:17,148
This is not some random crime.
910
00:35:17,148 --> 00:35:18,983
[dramatic instrumental music]
911
00:35:18,983 --> 00:35:21,486
- [Alan] The entire Yale
lab community is reeling
912
00:35:21,486 --> 00:35:24,088
as the Connecticut State
Medical Examiner's office
913
00:35:24,088 --> 00:35:26,224
performs Annie's autopsy.
914
00:35:27,758 --> 00:35:29,760
- [David] The medical examiner
ruled it a homicide,
915
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,296
and said that she
had, in effect,
916
00:35:32,296 --> 00:35:37,001
been badly beaten
and asphyxiated.
917
00:35:37,001 --> 00:35:39,504
It was clearly a brutal murder.
918
00:35:39,504 --> 00:35:42,240
It took some effort
to move her body.
919
00:35:42,240 --> 00:35:43,174
[dramatic music]
920
00:35:43,174 --> 00:35:44,275
- [Alan] Most
importantly, they now have
921
00:35:44,275 --> 00:35:48,913
a DNA sample they can
connect to Annie's murderer.
922
00:35:48,913 --> 00:35:52,116
They have already swabbed
contractor Larry Godfrey,
923
00:35:52,116 --> 00:35:55,153
but they still need DNA from
the man rising to the top
924
00:35:55,153 --> 00:35:57,288
of their short suspect list,
925
00:35:58,055 --> 00:35:59,257
Ray Clark.
926
00:35:59,257 --> 00:36:01,526
[intense dramatic music]
927
00:36:01,526 --> 00:36:03,161
- [Agent Jacobson] We are still
watching him.
928
00:36:04,328 --> 00:36:07,198
So the next step
was a search warrant
929
00:36:07,198 --> 00:36:11,569
was applied for his
residence and for his DNA.
930
00:36:11,569 --> 00:36:14,071
As we're watching him,
the detectives roll up.
931
00:36:14,071 --> 00:36:15,273
[suspenseful music]
932
00:36:15,273 --> 00:36:18,376
- [David] The police get a
warrant and search his apartment
933
00:36:20,178 --> 00:36:23,181
and also get a DNA sample.
934
00:36:23,181 --> 00:36:27,218
[suspenseful music continues]
935
00:36:27,218 --> 00:36:29,353
- [Alan] A DNA match is the
one piece of evidence
936
00:36:29,353 --> 00:36:32,924
that could prove Ray's guilt
beyond reasonable doubt.
937
00:36:32,924 --> 00:36:36,194
On September the 17th
they get an answer.
938
00:36:36,994 --> 00:36:39,297
- [Agent Jacobson] The DNA found
on her body
939
00:36:39,297 --> 00:36:43,167
[striking suspenseful music]
940
00:36:43,167 --> 00:36:45,203
was Ray Clark's DNA.
941
00:36:46,837 --> 00:36:50,074
- [Alan] The DNA match is enough
to obtain an arrest warrant.
942
00:36:50,074 --> 00:36:53,077
[dramatic music]
943
00:36:53,077 --> 00:36:55,179
Investigative teams
coordinate their efforts
944
00:36:55,179 --> 00:36:56,614
with the surveillance team
945
00:36:56,614 --> 00:36:58,816
that's already been
following Ray Clark.
946
00:36:59,717 --> 00:37:02,386
Within a matter of hours
of the DNA results,
947
00:37:02,386 --> 00:37:03,955
he's on the move.
948
00:37:04,622 --> 00:37:06,857
- [Agent Jacobson] I recall
following him,
949
00:37:06,857 --> 00:37:09,493
and he gets in the
car pretty hastily
950
00:37:09,493 --> 00:37:12,096
with his fiancée
and leaves the area.
951
00:37:12,096 --> 00:37:13,965
We're thinking maybe
he's gonna take off.
952
00:37:13,965 --> 00:37:17,301

[suspenseful orchestral music]
968
00:37:19,704 --> 00:37:21,239
- [Alan] Just over a
week after the murder
969
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,574
of Yale researcher Annie Le,
970
00:37:23,574 --> 00:37:26,577
investigators are ready
to make an arrest.
971
00:37:26,577 --> 00:37:29,780
Twenty-four-year-old
animal tech Ray Clark,
972
00:37:29,780 --> 00:37:31,849
who's on the run
with his fiancée.
973
00:37:31,849 --> 00:37:32,850
[suspenseful music]
974
00:37:32,850 --> 00:37:34,619
- [Agent Jacobson] He actually
goes to a hotel,
975
00:37:34,619 --> 00:37:36,621
and he stays there.
976
00:37:36,721 --> 00:37:40,725
Ray anticipated we were
coming, how could he not.
977
00:37:40,725 --> 00:37:42,593
So there's a lot of things
going through your head.
978
00:37:42,593 --> 00:37:43,928
As you're watching
someone like this
979
00:37:43,928 --> 00:37:46,264
who's potentially a murderer,
980
00:37:46,264 --> 00:37:49,600
that's a suicidal situation,
or suicide by cop,
981
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,270
or, "Hey, I'm gonna take
out my fiancée first
982
00:37:52,270 --> 00:37:54,405
before the police
come to get me."
983
00:37:54,405 --> 00:37:55,606
- [Alan] Luckily for police,
984
00:37:55,606 --> 00:37:57,041
after much anticipation,
985
00:37:57,041 --> 00:37:59,910
they arrest him
without incident.
986
00:37:59,910 --> 00:38:01,646
- It was a lot of
media attention.
987
00:38:01,646 --> 00:38:02,913
They walked in, handcuffed him,
988
00:38:02,913 --> 00:38:03,948
brought him out,
989
00:38:03,948 --> 00:38:05,616
[intense dramatic music]
990
00:38:05,616 --> 00:38:06,617
put him in the car.
991
00:38:07,652 --> 00:38:09,287
[gentle dramatic music]
992
00:38:09,287 --> 00:38:11,689
- [Jennifer] It was really
quite hard to fathom
993
00:38:11,689 --> 00:38:14,959
that somebody in the
lab, a close-knit group,
994
00:38:14,959 --> 00:38:16,794
would do something so horrific.
995
00:38:17,495 --> 00:38:20,765
- I would never in a million
years think it was Ray.
996
00:38:20,765 --> 00:38:22,667
I still didn't think
of him as a murderer.
997
00:38:23,567 --> 00:38:25,770
- [Alan] Despite the damning
evidence against him,
998
00:38:25,770 --> 00:38:29,607
at his arraignment Ray firmly
maintains his innocence.
999
00:38:30,308 --> 00:38:32,510
Looking back on the
forensic evidence,
1000
00:38:32,510 --> 00:38:34,712
prosecutors piece
together a theory
1001
00:38:34,712 --> 00:38:36,681
as to what took
place that morning.
1002
00:38:36,681 --> 00:38:37,982
[tense sinister music]
1003
00:38:37,982 --> 00:38:38,949
- - [Det. Valentin] We have to
wonder,
1004
00:38:38,949 --> 00:38:41,419
does the existence
of that seminal fluid
1005
00:38:41,419 --> 00:38:43,854
have anything to do
with what happened?
1006
00:38:43,854 --> 00:38:46,590
Is this attack part
of a sexual assault?
1007
00:38:46,590 --> 00:38:48,059
Is it coincidental?
1008
00:38:48,059 --> 00:38:50,328
I mean, we just don't
know at this point.
1009
00:38:50,328 --> 00:38:52,096
[dramatic instrumental music]
1010
00:38:52,096 --> 00:38:54,799
- [David] They were looking at
Annie's emails,
1011
00:38:54,799 --> 00:38:56,067
texts, phone records,
1012
00:38:56,067 --> 00:39:00,604
trying to figure out if there
were any connections to Clark,
1013
00:39:00,604 --> 00:39:03,974
and they found he
had at some point
1014
00:39:03,974 --> 00:39:06,711
asked her to get a
drink after work.
1015
00:39:08,079 --> 00:39:11,749
- Annie shared with me
that there was a lab tech
1016
00:39:11,749 --> 00:39:14,485
who asked if she
was dating anyone
1017
00:39:14,485 --> 00:39:15,886
and if she would
ever be interested
1018
00:39:15,886 --> 00:39:18,022
in getting a drink with him.
1019
00:39:18,022 --> 00:39:20,591
And in true Annie
fashion, she was like,
1020
00:39:20,591 --> 00:39:23,994
"You know, I'm happily engaged."
1021
00:39:23,994 --> 00:39:26,764
[gentle dramatic music]
1022
00:39:26,764 --> 00:39:28,366
- [Det. Valentin] I think her
email announcing that
1023
00:39:28,366 --> 00:39:31,502
Friday was her last
day before her wedding
1024
00:39:31,502 --> 00:39:34,105
might've been a
precipitating factor here.
1025
00:39:34,105 --> 00:39:35,773
[intense sinister music]
1026
00:39:35,773 --> 00:39:38,843
Perhaps Ray went to
talk to her in her lab,
1027
00:39:40,745 --> 00:39:44,515
and I think that either
she went to leave
1028
00:39:44,515 --> 00:39:45,983
or she asked him to leave,
1029
00:39:46,650 --> 00:39:49,854
and I think a situation
got out of hand.
1030
00:39:49,854 --> 00:39:52,990
[intense suspenseful music]
1031
00:39:52,990 --> 00:39:55,893
- [Alan] Whether or not it
was sexual in nature,
1032
00:39:55,893 --> 00:39:59,063
the evidence shows Annie
was badly beaten by Ray
1033
00:39:59,063 --> 00:40:01,866
and then moved into
the storage room.
1034
00:40:01,866 --> 00:40:03,934
As a nearly five-year
employee of the lab,
1035
00:40:03,934 --> 00:40:06,804
he would know
exactly where to go.
1036
00:40:06,804 --> 00:40:10,040
Then before he can find a
better place to hide her body,
1037
00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:11,876
the fire alarm goes off.
1038
00:40:11,876 --> 00:40:12,810
[dramatic music]
1039
00:40:12,810 --> 00:40:15,379
[alarm ringing]
1040
00:40:16,147 --> 00:40:17,882
[beeping continues]
1041
00:40:17,882 --> 00:40:19,083
and so that's what's captured
1042
00:40:19,083 --> 00:40:21,118
on the footage that afternoon.
1043
00:40:21,919 --> 00:40:24,755
- We thought he had set the
alarm off to move the body,
1044
00:40:24,755 --> 00:40:26,824
but that wasn't the case.
1045
00:40:26,824 --> 00:40:28,692
He was obviously in the
middle of something,
1046
00:40:28,692 --> 00:40:30,928
hands in his head,
and was distraught.
1047
00:40:31,829 --> 00:40:33,063
- [Alan] After the fire alarm,
1048
00:40:33,063 --> 00:40:34,965
Ray returns to the storage room
1049
00:40:34,965 --> 00:40:37,168
and moves Annie once again.
1050
00:40:37,168 --> 00:40:39,437
[tense dramatic music]
1051
00:40:39,437 --> 00:40:40,771
- [Det. Valentin] What I didn't
see much of
1052
00:40:40,771 --> 00:40:44,008
in the physical evidence
was premeditation.
1053
00:40:44,942 --> 00:40:47,978
What we see is panic, confusion,
1054
00:40:47,978 --> 00:40:50,848
somebody frantic to cover up.
1055
00:40:50,848 --> 00:40:54,718
[striking dramatic music]
1056
00:40:54,718 --> 00:40:56,587
- [Alan] With evidence
stacked against him,
1057
00:40:56,587 --> 00:40:59,957
18 months later Ray
pleads guilty to murder.
1058
00:41:00,724 --> 00:41:03,194
As part of the
plea negotiations,
1059
00:41:03,194 --> 00:41:06,997
prosecutors add the charge
of attempted sexual assault
1060
00:41:06,997 --> 00:41:10,734
based on the seminal DNA
evidence found on the walls
1061
00:41:10,734 --> 00:41:12,536
of Annie's lab.
1062
00:41:12,536 --> 00:41:15,105
Although he makes a statement
at the plea arraignment,
1063
00:41:15,105 --> 00:41:18,843
nothing he can say will ever
bring closure to Annie's
1064
00:41:18,843 --> 00:41:22,947
family, friends, or
fellow lab workers.
1065
00:41:22,947 --> 00:41:26,083
- [Det. Valentin] He said he was
sorry for his actions,
1066
00:41:26,083 --> 00:41:29,920
but what he never
did was explain why.
1067
00:41:32,623 --> 00:41:35,159
- [David] To have her life
cut short like that,
1068
00:41:35,159 --> 00:41:37,027
for really no reason,
1069
00:41:37,027 --> 00:41:39,830
I think is the
real tragedy here.
1070
00:41:39,830 --> 00:41:43,467
It just was such a sad
loss of a brilliant mind.
1071
00:41:44,835 --> 00:41:46,704
- [Melissa] I just feel for her
family.
1072
00:41:46,704 --> 00:41:48,038
I feel for her fiancée.
1073
00:41:48,038 --> 00:41:49,974
It was sad.
1074
00:41:49,974 --> 00:41:51,242
It was wrong.
1075
00:41:51,242 --> 00:41:52,910
[light gentle music]
1076
00:41:52,910 --> 00:41:56,280
- [Jennifer] Her love for John
1077
00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,516
was so real.
1078
00:41:58,516 --> 00:41:59,984
She was really excited.
1079
00:41:59,984 --> 00:42:01,886
She was looking
forward to the wedding.
1080
00:42:02,586 --> 00:42:05,623
It was gonna be a
big, beautiful day,
1081
00:42:05,623 --> 00:42:07,024
and it was stolen from her.
1082
00:42:07,024 --> 00:42:08,526
It was stolen from them.
1083
00:42:08,526 --> 00:42:11,662
[light gentle music]
1084
00:42:11,662 --> 00:42:13,731
- [Alan] In the years since
Annie's murder,
1085
00:42:13,731 --> 00:42:16,534
her fellow researchers
at Yale's prestigious lab
1086
00:42:16,534 --> 00:42:18,202
have gone on to change the world
1087
00:42:18,202 --> 00:42:20,871
through scientific
breakthroughs.
1088
00:42:20,871 --> 00:42:23,908
Yet they remain haunted
by the chilling reminder
1089
00:42:23,908 --> 00:42:26,911
that sometimes among your
most trusted colleagues,
1090
00:42:27,645 --> 00:42:30,915
there could bea
killer in plain sight.
1091
00:42:30,915 --> 00:42:32,516
