I just want to know WHY Annie was murdered. I hope we find out the answer to that question in time.

This person they are talking about seems to be much more than simply an animal tech though (i.e. co-authoring an article with a professor/phD student - type).

ITA. I think we're barking up the wrong tree here.

Nurse, I don't think you're wrong at all but one of the reasons I can't get this Rodent Services out of my head is b/c they could be handling alot of the stuff for Annie or her research team. the tech could be considered a lab tech, just maybe higher up than your average lab tech considering their function at Yale. They euthanize, administer injections, feed, breed, etc, for the researcher/scientist. Annie would have multiple chance encounters with one of these people considering her work is done on mice. I honestly can't see how she "can't" come in contact with one of these techs. Do I have tunnel vision here? Help me out. I definitely know the difference with an animal research specialist and a lab tech but a lab tech working in animal research would probably have an 8 hour shift, and there would probably be rotating schedules, and that lab tech would be designated to an area in or very near the animals simply b/c they can't move from room to room as freely b/c their change in smell would thorw the animals off and drive them crazy. Also, a lab tech working in an animal facility would more than likely have more responsibility than a regular lab tech. Could this person have formed a liking for Annie? An infatuation? A jealousy? Am I going off on a wild tangent?

bold is mine. I don't think you are off on a tanget at all. I think it is a more detailed description of a possibility. Of course (salt please LOL) all of these "reports" about a suspect being an animal tech or lab tech are speculation at this point. I would think that someone in rodent services would be considered an animal tech but labrat or gtk or one of our other scientists can answer that a he!! of a lot better than I ever could (and I shouldn't have even tried LOL... it is kinda like asking me, an open heart nurse, to deliver your baby! LOL oh scientists... what say yous?)
 
From http://www.newhavenindependent.org/archives/2009/09/serious_suspect.php
(bold mine)


Another law enforcement source familiar with the probe identified the suspect as a lab technician who works with animal testing at Yale. That technician’s campus phone number was disconnected Monday afternoon and he couldn’t be reached for comment. The technician allegedly had an unrequited love interest in Annie Le, according to that source. That suggestion couldn’t be independently verified Monday afternoon.

ETA: I just noticed that Chili Fries posted this awhile back...

welcome gtk! yeah! another science person!!!!!

Would an animal tech know how to screw up your hood and set off the fire alarm? Or better yet, COULD it even produce enough steam to set one off? Thanks for "setting" me straight on that and WELCOME TO WEBSLEUTHS! :blowkiss:

Certainly would know how to open the steam valve. Most hoods do not have fire sensors, the type of work that you do in a hood with acids, solvent etc. would likely kill a fire sensor fairly quickly.

If the hood was off, the steam vapor might trigger a photo-eye smoke detector in the room where the hood was located. A large laboratory steam generator can produce very large quantities of steam (thing steam heat boilers). That steam would rise to the ceiling where the detectors are usually located.

Thank you for your welcome.

It's really bugging me & I just can't get it out of my head. I can't find anything...yet...that says she worked with primates, goats, anything else. That would lead me to believe she came in contact with Rodent Services / techs / whatever on more than one occasion...probably multiple occasions. She was on a team of scientists. There's no way she's doing everything now that she used to do when she first started college, if somebody can do it for her. They do the euthanizing and everything. She probably did most of it but the person on duty in that facility would probably "look after" the mice she's experimenting on...kwim? Am I wrong? I just can't get it out of my head.
 
I have noticed several posts at different sites saying that YALE FAILED to check out their employees for a criminal past...........wow! never thought of that!

Curious. Most sites with one of the names from that last link I posted are pulling that article.

Yale's pulled the page, but these look to be the 2004-2005 (possible - if Joe from the NHR site is correct) article choices:

I'm in a different field, but I would expect that a lab tech is typically not included as a co-author.

We're not sure if the *advertiser censored* is a male or a female...just note the z in the name

but honestly, I'm not convinced that person has anything to do with anything:) jmo
