This timeline of events from the Virginia Tech shooting lists times in Eastern Daylight Time (UTC-4).

The official timeline was compiled by TriData Corp, a division of defense contractor System Planning Corp., for use by the eight-member panel appointed by Virginia Governor Tim Kaine.[1][2]

Background

2003

2004

Monday, January 19

  • Cho started trading on eBay with ID "blazers5505".[4][5]

2005

Fall

  • Andy Koch, Cho's suitemate, took Cho out to some parties at the start of the fall semester in 2005. At one party, Cho got "tipsy" enough that he opened up and began talking about his virtual love life. He said he had an imaginary girlfriend named Jelly, and that she was "a supermodel that lived in space." Jelly had a nickname for Cho—Spanky.[6]
  • Andy Koch along with John Eide snooped in Cho's belongings and "found nothing more threatening than a pocket knife."[7]

Fall poetry class

  • Professor Nikki Giovanni requested that Cho either change the sinister content of his poems or drop the class. Cho responded, "You can't make me."[8]

Removed from poetry class

  • Lucinda Roy, co-director of the creative writing program removed Cho from Professor Giovanni's class and tutored him one-on-one. When Cho refused to go to counseling, Roy notified the Division of Student Affairs, the Cook Counseling Center, the Schiffert Health Center, the Virginia Tech police and the College of Liberal Arts and Human Sciences.[8]

Fall writing class

  • Professor Lisa Norris, who had Cho in her class, alerted the associate dean of students, Mary Ann Lewis, who could find "no mention of mental health issues or police reports" on Cho.[8]

Sunday, November 27

  • A female student filed a report with the Virginia Tech campus police indicating that Cho had made "annoying" contact with her on the internet,[6] by phone and in person. The investigating officer referred Cho to the school's disciplinary system, the office of judicial affairs,[9] which is separate from the police department.[10]

Monday, December 12

  • Another female student, a friend of Andy Koch,[6] filed a report with the Virginia Tech campus police complaining of "disturbing" instant messages from Cho. She requested that Cho "have no further contact with her."[9][11][12]

Tuesday, December 13

  • Virginia Tech campus police notified Cho that he was to have no further contact with the female student.
  • After Virginia Tech campus police left, Andy Koch, Cho's roommate, received an instant message from Cho stating, "I might as well kill myself now."[6][13]
  • In response to receiving the instant message from Cho, Andy Koch, Cho's roommate, notified the resident advisor and phoned his father.[14] Koch and his father alerted Virginia Tech campus police that Cho had sent Koch a suicidal instant message.
  • Virginia Tech campus police took Cho off campus to a voluntary counseling evaluation at New River Community Services,[11] where he was examined by Kathy Goodbey. Goodbey determined that he was "mentally ill and in need of hospitalization."[15]
  • Cho's paperwork, declaring Cho "an imminent danger to self or others", was sent to court.
  • Cho was transported to Carilion St. Albans Psychiatric Hospital where psychologist Roy Crouse determined that Cho "is mentally ill; that he does not present an imminent danger to (himself/others), or is not substantially unable to care for himself, as a result of mental illness; and that he does not require involuntary hospitalization."[16]

Wednesday, December 14

  • Cho was released from Carilion St. Albans Psychiatric Hospital after his examination by Roy Crouse.[17]
  • Cho's paperwork was sent to special Justice Paul M. Barnett, who certified the finding and ordered follow-up treatment.[18][19]
  • Neither the court, the university nor community services officials followed up on the judge's order, according to dozens of interviews. Cho never got the treatment, according to authorities who have seen his medical files.[15]

2006

Fall

  • Cho enrolled in Professor Brent Stevens's English 3984 class, "Special Studies: Contemporary Horror. - 'not for the faint of heart' ." In that class, he analyzed The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and explored in papers and a "fear journal" how "horror has become a masochistic pleasure."[20] Cho later sold his textbooks on eBay-affiliated site half.com. The textbooks that were sold included Men, Women, and Chainsaws by Carol J. Clover, a book that explores gender in the modern horror film. Others include The Best of H. P. Lovecraft: Bloodcurdling Tales of Horror and the Macabre; and The Female of the Species: Tales of Mystery and Suspense by Joyce Carol Oates, a book in which the publisher writes: "In these and other gripping and disturbing tales, women are confronted by the evil around them and surprised by the evil they find within themselves."[21][22]

She explained that on Monday mornings Thornhill would drop off Hilscher and go back to Radford University where he was a student, and that Thornhill was an avid gun user. This led the police to seek him out as a "person of interest."[28][44][50]

  • 9:50 a.m.: A second e-mail announcing: "A gunman is loose on campus. Stay in buildings until further notice. Stay away from all windows" was sent to all Virginia Tech email addresses. Loudspeakers broadcast a similar message.[56]

  • 4:37 p.m.: Local police authorities announced that television network NBC received correspondence from Cho, some of which included images of him holding weapons, writings, audio recordings and videos; this information was immediately submitted to the FBI.

The initial autopsy of the Virginia Tech gunman found no gross brain function abnormalities that could explain the rampage that left 33 people dead.[75]
