THIS is the face of the girl who may have sparked the worst school shooting in US history.

Eighteen-year-old Emily Jane Hilscher was one of the first two victims to be identified in the Virginia Tech massacre, along with 22-year-old Ryan Clark.

The pair were neighbours in rooms 4040 and 4042 on the fourth floor of the West Ambler Johnston Hall dormitory where a gunman began the first of 33 campus shootings on Monday morning just after 7am, US time.

Yeah - lets all stare at this girl and blame her for this.... she can’t fight back.

Tasteless.

I asked this on another thread and no answer yet. Has Emily Hilscher been definitively linked with Cho Seung-Hui?

I think it’s too early to tell. I think the Islimic link is possible, but unproven. But hold that thought. It’s worth looking at as we learn more.

No. Indeed, from what I’ve been reading, she appears to be, literally, some more or less random girl he’d started stalking.

To begin with - she was a freshman, and this fellow doesn’t sound like he was making any new friends in the last year or so.

It isn’t fair to plaster her face everywhere. This must be horrible enough for her without idiot reporters broadcasting her face all over the world.

EDIT

the word parents was missing.

Almost right from the start I said this was one of those jilted boyfriend cases that ended tragically. Sad.

yet can we assume from her name that she’s Jewish?...

You really can't tell by her name. Names like that are hard to determine.

Is this idiot trying to associate this girl with the crime?
This IS low. This young lady had nothing to do with causing this maniac to murder.

Given the mob insanity that passes for the MSM these days, I REALLY don’t want to go too far down the speculation road at this point.

The smallest shreds will undoubtedly be twisted into incredible conspiracies and foul ups in the next few hours and days, while everyone scrambles to “find meaning” in this tragedy. We can all brace for the usual anti-gun leg. being dusted off and introduced soon as well.

I believe this young lady was Jewish also...

This was not what it is being packaged as. I believe the evidence points to this as a Jihadist attack. There is no eveidence that it was anything other than a freelancer—no affiliations noted. Similar to moron that wanted to blow up Cherryvale Mall in Rockford IL last year. Cho was just a better Jihadist.

She's NOT to blame, stupid dumb-a$$ reporter!!!!!


I had the same thought when I first read that line. She shares no blame for what happened - the perp bears total responsibility for these murders.

May God rest her soul. How tragic.
