“Dressed more like a ‘boy scout’ than a mass murderer, he arrived at her dormitory room early on Monday morning.
It is unclear whether the first-year had responded to her killer’s approaches. But Cho, jealous of Emily’s boyfriend, gunned her down.
Another student, Ryan Clark, rushed to help after hearing his neighbor arguing with Cho. But the 22-year-old died alongside her.
Cho, who was described as a loner, then casually walked back to his own room, re-armed and embarked on an orgy of violence making him the most deadly murderer in American history.
Before killing 30 more, and then turning the gun on himself, Cho left a note which gave some clues to his twisted mind. He wrote: ‘You caused me to do this’.
The ‘very disturbing’ letter, four pages long, includes a rambling list of grievances and attacks against ‘rich kids’, ‘debauchery’ and ‘deceitful charlatans’ on campus.
He died with the words ‘Ismail Ax’ written in red ink on the inside of one of his arms, leading to speculation that he may have been a Muslim. In Islamic lore, Ismail is a reference to the ’son of sacrifice’.”
Our thoughts & are hearts are with the families & friends of these unnecessary victims
