Hokie Killer was a Cyber Stalker?
That seems to be the case. Search warrants issued in the case show that there were extensive communications directed toward Emily Hilscher, Cho’s first victim.
From Fox news here:
Search warrants show that police are trying to determine whether Cho had any relationship or communication with his first victim, Emily Jane Hilscher, a 19-year-old freshman from Woodville, Va.
Police seized not only Cho’s cell-phone records, but also a CD containing text for e-mail messages for “EPIXIE,” a CD containing e-mail activity for logs tracking “SC2,” and a CD containing SC2 and EPIXIE file boxes, among other things.
Hilscher’s Virginia Tech e-mail address was epixie@vt.edu. Cho’s campus e-mail address was sc2@vt.edu.
That’s a lot of CD’s worth of messages. I googled “epixie” to see if that was a handle Hilscher would have used at other message boards, but not much turned up.
My prediction is that this communication will be mostly one way- toward Hilscher. She may have tried to be nice to him once but that just fed his internal creep-monster. Cho probably tried to send her videos, long rambling email manifestos and lots of text messages.
