Yale tech’s latest flame: ‘Who are you to judge me?’

Here are excerpts from a blog maintained by the fiancée of Raymond Clark, the lab tech who cops say is a “person of interest” in the murder of Yale grad student Annie Le.

In a typo-filled May 2008 posting, the fiancée, Jennifer Hromadka, dismisses rumors that she’s breaking up with Clark.

“Spring is in the air and this time of year it seems that the rumors pop up more than the flowers (at least that is how it is [at the Yale animal-research center where the two work].) I have noticed recently that my relationship seems to be the focus of a lot of these rumors! . . .

I could be a bitch and give it right back cause lord knows some of the ‘people’ deserve it but I choose to ignore the rumors and try to keep in mind that the people that are the source are a bit jealous. So there will be no confrontation, no yelling, none of that cause really, life is too short.

He has no interest in any of the other girls [at the research center]. . . .

We are not broken up, nor were we. We do not live together for financial reasons. We did not quit the softball team for any other reason than the fact that we moved 30 minutes away from New Haven and driving back and forth would be a waste of both time and money . . .

If you know what I am talking about u can probably (if you have half a brain) come to the conclu sion that its all a load of BS . . . Very sorry individuals that start these rumors will take a hint and move on with their lives!!”

“Who are you to judge the life I live. I know I’m not per fect and I don’t live to be, but before you start pointing fingers make sure your hands are clean.”
