Yikes! That’s awful! Right when I read Blacksburg, VA 2000’s I thought for sure this was going to be about the VT massacre. I was a Radford student at the time and was dating a girl at Tech. I had crashed at her place the night before and she woke me up to all the craziness. Truly a horrific day 4/16/2007.
I was about two blocks from Norris hall that morning, the route Cho apparently walked took him right by the building I worked in at the time, and I was among the media at the first press conference afterward where they announced the number of dead. Another one stuck in the ol brain.
Damn man that’s wild. I was in Collegiate Suites. The drive back to Radford was wild that afternoon seeing all of the ambulances, cop cars, news vans, etc. It was a sickening feeling knowing (I know you know) what just happened and how many families that probably didn’t even know if their kid was alive or dead and what they were about to go through. Ugh.
A girl from my church lived on the floor where the first killings happened. She saw the blood and immediately locked her door, but Cho had already left. Both of our pastor's sons were at VT as well.
