A Killer’s Video Manifesto

18 Apr

Filed Under Virginia Tech Shooting | Leave a Comment



Sometime after he killed two people in a Virginia university dormitory but before he slaughtered 30 more in a classroom building, Cho Seung-Hui mailed NBC News an overnight package that included 29 photographs, videos, rambling prose.

Does the Manifesto speak to paranoid schizophrenia or a sane, but deeply evil person. Such inferences will certainly play a role in legal cases that seek to assign liability for the tragedy to university administration who it can be argued under reacted to the many warning signs of Cho’s potential to erupt and to a county magistrate and hospital system (Carilion St. Albans Behavioral Health Center) that failed to monitor a patient who at one point was ruled mentally unfit and “presented an imminent danger to himself as a result of mental illness.”

The television commentators content the manifesto indicates a mental disorder that could have been controled with medication.  Yet, the physician who examined him under a commitment order in December, 2005 concluded “His insight and judgment are normal.”

Virginia Tech police department arranged for order to be issued to detain Cho Seung Hui for psychiatric evaluation in December 2005.  That order along with the evaluating physician’s report and resulting “court-ordered outpatient — to follow all recommended treatments” which was apparently not followed up.

Ismail Ax: Biblical, Literary, Musical, or Gamertag????

Ismail AxWritten in red ink on the arm of Virgina Tech killer Cho Seung Hui, the two word phrase “Ismail Ax” has inspired more theories than the number of background checks required before he could purchase his 9mm gun. Oh… wait a minute. I mean don’t wait a minute. There were no required background checks and no required waiting period before the known psychiatric hospital patient was able to purchase the weapon he used to kill 32 people.

The leading theories:

  • Biblical: Abraham, known as Ibrahim in Islam (notice how the Koran has to tweak everything from the Old Testament), smashed all but one statue in a local temple with an ax, in protest that people in his hometown worshiped idols and not Allah. His son Isaac is known as Ismail in the Koran. Perhaps Choo was upset no one seemed to worship him. Or was symbolizing his singular worship for a women with whom he was obsessed. Read more

    Virginia Tech’s Cho Seung-Hui was known by few on campus until yesterday, but those who knew him from English class knew an eerily quiet, disturbed student who wrote creepy plays about families throwing hammers and chainsaws at one another.  Plays creepy enough to cause his creative writing instructor to recommend counseling.

    USLaw Celebrity Justice has obtained the violent text of Cho Seung-Hui’s play Richard McBeef.  (Bookmark to be alerted to other plays and writing currently being processed.)

    Mistress 13: “So, do you like to be Tied Up?”

    11 Apr

    Filed Under Astronut | Leave a Comment

    Remember James Lovell heroically saving ill-fated spacecraft Apollo 13 by jerryrigging a homemade gas valve with duct tape and other spare parts? Apparently NASA is still teaching such home brew skills. Love-torn Atstronut Lisa Nowak gathered plenty of home items when she made her non-stop diaper laden drive to find the women that stole her boy friend. We knew about the BB gun, brand new steel mallet, knife, and rubber tubing that were immediately found in her car. Now we learn what she may have wished to do with these items. According to a forensic examination report by the Orlando Police Department, sixteen images on a disk found in her car depicted bondage scenes showing images and drawings of a nude woman.

    Did she like to be tied up? Did she plan to tie up her rival? Which would make a better film? Lovell’s exploits were captured to much fanfare by Tom Hanks in the film Apollo 13. Who will play play the part of Lisa Nowak? When her scheduled trial starts in September, she may have to claim an interest in the former for these potentially incriminating images not to bolster the prosecution’s argument that she intended to harm her victim.
