What exactly does that mean, I understand strangling her but was it more violent or something to phrase it this way? 

 Compressive asphyxia
The knee-on-belly position compresses the chest, making it difficult for the person on the bottom to breathe.

Compressive asphyxia (also called chest compression) is the mechanical limitation of the expansion of the lungs by compressing the torso, hence interfering with breathing. Compressive asphyxia occurs when the chest or abdomen is compressed posteriorly.[3] In accidents, the term traumatic asphyxia or crush asphyxia is usually used to describe compressive asphyxia resulting from being crushed or pinned under a large weight or force. An example of traumatic asphyxia includes cases in which an individual has been using a car-jack to repair a car from below, only to be crushed under the weight of the vehicle[2] when the car-jack slips. Pythons, anacondas, and other constrictor snakes kill through compressive asphyxia.

Your question got me to wondering too. Looked up definitions and it sounds pretty violent to me. Lots of damage done to her neck in the process. I'm thinking so much pressure applied to her neck that it was possibly crushed.

If he is going to co operate, to me it means :
LE has the goods ( DNA, Blood, Opportunity ).
As long as there was no disernable sexual assault, he will claim some sort of
lashing out, snapped for a second and presto gizmo, he will plea to a very lesser charge like manslaughter.
The building was not secured, two reporters from the Yale newpaper were in the basement before she was found. That could be an issue at trial.

Cases of atypical compression differ from the classic pictures
of death by asphyxia because, although they are due to the
same pathogenetic mechanisms, they do not leave strong
signs of skin lesions, visible on external examination as
finger-shaped ecchymoses and nail marks due to throttling, or
a soft or hard ridge running round the neck due to strangling
or hanging.
Various atypical forms have been described, caused by
rods or sticks used to compress the neck anteroposteriorly, by
wooden rods with cords or screws attached to their extremities
used in garroting, by violent pulling of the neck backwards
in a pincer movement between the forearm and arm in
mugging, or by compression of the victim’s neck by the
aggressor’s knee or foot.5 There have also been cases of
“passive strangling” in which the subject loses consciousness,
and in falling, the neck presses against an object that compresses
the airway. In this case, it is the weight of the body
that causes death.6–7 So-called passive strangling and accidental
forms of asphyxia due to direct compression on the
neck by sliding doors or automatic windows are classified as
violent mechanical asphyxia.

Pretty long article.  From a lot of the medical knowledge I learned in college (note I do not profess to be a medical expert) I thought when I read the cause of death that maybe something was done to her, the perp assumed she was dead, stuffed her body in that little 2 foot space to cover what was done, which could have cause her neck to be kinked in such a way that it cut off her breathing supply, thus killing her.  It is a terrible thought I have that someone hurt her out of anger and then thought she was dead without meaning to kill her and then felt they had no option but to cover the crime because it was murder and an "accident" and then felt they had to cover themselves and in the process really did end up killing her when her life could have been saved and the perp would have just gotten time in jail if they had just sought help to begin with.  If that turns out to be the case this makes the story more tragic on so many more levels.  If she was as everyone has described her, I just cannot see someone purposely trying to kill her.  Either way, intended or accidental the perp is going to go down.  This whole hing is just so sad to me.

Ex-Girlfriend “Shocked” About Annie Le Target
by Marcia Chambers And Melissa Bailey | September 16, 2009 2:09 PM

(Updated) When she found out her ex-boyfriend was a suspect in the murder of Annie Le, a young Branford woman flashed back to a high school dispute that led to a visit from the cops.

The Branford woman used to date the lab technician who is now a “person of interest” in the killing of Yale graduate student Annie Le. They dated about six years ago, when they were both students at Branford High School.

According to a 2003 police report obtained by the Independent earlier this week, she told police he forced her to have sex with him and he “confronted” her, when against his wishes, she sought to end the relationship. However, she declined to press charges.

State cops discovered Le’s remains inside a basement wall at Yale on Sunday. Tuesday night, police took the technician into temporary custody for a DNA search in connection to the case; he was later released.

“I cant believe this is true,” the Branford ex-girlfriend wrote on her Facebook page Tuesday. She said she was “in total utter shock.”

(She declined to discuss the matter with the Independent.)

She wrote on her page that the news made her think of her high school relationship with the suspect.

“I feel like im 16 all over again,” she wrote. “Its jsut [sic] bringing back everything.”

She has known since Sunday that he was being looked at as a “possible” suspect in the crime, according to her private Facebook profile.

I heard earlier, on Fox, that Clark didn't like the way Annie handled the mice?

WTH is that all about?
