The Virginia Tech 'shooter', Seung-Hui Cho, had been treated for mental illness since his early teens. Some reports say that he had been bullied about his speech impediment but those reports were never substantiated. In High School, he received special support for his psychological issues from the school and his parents to help him. The administration at Virginia Tech was unaware of his history and provided no mental health services or support for him. After a stalking incident in 2005, two years before the shootings, a court ordered outpatient psychological services for him but the school was not responsible for administering the order. It is unclear how or if Cho followed through with the court order. One of the impediments for the school administration's oversight of a student's mental health status are the laws protecting the privacy of patient information.

== == Seung-Hui Cho was the Virginia Tech student who went on a shooting rampage (now known as the Virginia Tech Massacre), killing 32 individuals and wounding 25 others.I was there, I was actually at school when it happened, and my dad used to work in Virginia Tech, and he worked in the building across from the shooting. It was sooo scary, because our school was half a mile away from Virginia Tech, and if you go there, you can see memories of them, like pictures and stuff. So sad! There's still some blood on the sidewalk.
