Shooter's family agrees to give mental health records to Virginia Tech panel
June 15, 2007
Panel is trying to learn whether Seung-Hui Cho received help for his psychological problems.
A panel studying the April 16 Virginia Tech shooting rampage has obtained gunman Seung-Hui Cho's mental-health records. Cho's father signed a waiver allowing Tech to give the panel the records detailing any psychiatric care Cho received at the school's Cook Counseling Center. Panel members believe the documents as crucial to their effort to determine if Cho ever received the outpatient treatment he had been ordered to undergo in December 2005.
