In 2001, the Hartford Courant published an 8000 word Sunday magazine story on the case, written by the then Courant Metro Section editor, Les Gura, which won the Neiman Prize at Harvard University for fairness in journalism. It argued that the case was badly handled by the police, Yale and the media, and raised serious doubts about the logic of suspecting Van de Velde of any involvement in the crimeArus808, why did you delete the comments on your myspace where you were corrected in your false claim that Van de Velde was cleared from the case?

Van de Velde left Yale and was reported in the Yale Daily News as having successfully undergone an investigation to renew his security clearance and gone to work for the Pentagon. Van de Velde never lost his Top Secret Department of Defense security clearance, despite an extensive review of the case by both the Naval Criminal Investigative Service and the Defense Security Service of the Department of Defense. Further still, Van de Velde took and passed the State Department Foreign Service exam in 2001, prompting another investigation of the case which resulted in another Top Secret clearance afforded him by the US Department of State. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suzanne...s_Van_de_Velde
Quote:
Three days after the murder, New Haven police spoke to Van de Velde, but declined his offers to let them search his home, take a DNA sample, or take a polygraph exam (they did dust his car for fingerprints; their findings provided no link).

Subsequent tests of material taken from beneath her fingernails revealed DNA that did not match Van de Velde’s, that of her boyfriend, any other friend or acquaintance, or any emergency worker who tried to save her.
