- Emily Hilscher was an ex-girlfriend of Cho's according to some sources; her friends deny that she ever knew the man
- Hilscher's last boyfriend, Karl Thornhill, was a gun aficionado. Unfortunately, he wasn't around to stop Cho - and the police assumed this meant he was the most likely killer. That wild goose chase cost 29 lives.
- Virginia Tech has 25,000 students and 38 sworn police officers, according to the VT Police website. According to Table 4 of this report from the DOJ, that's a little smaller than average for a community of that size. What's more, the Blacksburg Police were at their disposal after the first shooting. So why wasn't there a police presence all over campus that morning?
- What's more, why were there no witnesses to the early morning shooting? Weren't some people wounded in that attack?
- Gov. Tim Kaine is appointing a panel to investigate the response. Hopefully they will put these questions to rest.
