Ryan Clark - Victim of Virginia Tech massacre

One of the toughest stories to read is about the RA, Ryan Clark, who was shot during the first incident at West AJ. This young man had a 4.0 grade point average and was on his way to becoming a PhD. Additionally, he has a twin brother and a sister.

Cho Seung-Hui's play "Richard McBeef" and" "Mr. Brownstone"

AOL News has two plays that Cho Seung-Hui wrote. These were obtained by Seung's former classmate, Ian MacFarlane. The first play is called "Richard McBeef". It's pretty disturbing. It talks about his father molesting him and beating both his son and wife. This isn't written by a normal kid.

It's obvious that he's had some issues with his own father in the past. These writings show it and he probable never got the support he needed from his family in times of need.
