Update- November Execution Sought for D.C. Sniper:  John Allen Muhammad's execution date has be set for November 10, by a Virginia judge.  Associated Press writer Dena Potter reports that Prince William County Circuit Judge Mary Grace O'Brien picked a Tuesday as the execution date because the courts would be open the day before just in case there is any last minute appeals.  Muhammad was sentenced to death for the October 2002 slaying of Dean Meyers.  Meyer's brother says, the set execution is a "reality check" and that Muhammad is paying his debt to society in the right way. 

Lab Technician Charged With The Murder Of Annie Le: Yale lab technician Raymond Clark III, 24, was arraigned for the murder of Yale graduate student Annie Le, 24, on Thursday.  Fox News writer Rick Leventhal and the Associated Press reports that a $3 million bond has been set for Clark on Thursday after he was arraigned for the murder of Le, without entering a plea.  On Sunday, Le's body was found stuffed into a wall of the lab building where she did research.  The cause of death was determined to be strangulation.  Clark was arrested because his DNA was found to be a match after comparing it with more than 250 pieces of evidence collected from the crime scene and Clark's apartment.  A possible motive for the murder is Clark's reported criticism of Le for her handling of the lab mice the two worked with.  New Haven Police Chief James Lewis said "Annie Le had unlimited potential.  This is not an urban crime, university crime or domestic crime, but a workplace crime, which has become a concern around the country."
