Haiyang Zhu Allegedly Stabs To Death Fellow Graduate Student At Virginia Tech

As if Virginia Tech has not had enough tragedy to last this century. Who could forget that the school was the site of a horrible massacre in 2008? LINK. This week, Haiyang Zhu, a graduate student from China, has been formally charged with murdering a female graduate student. She was fatally stabbed on Virginia Tech's campus Wednesday at Tech's Graduate Life Center. The unidentified female victim was also a graduate student. She apparently knew her attacker. Zhu was charged with first-degree murder and is being held without bond.

Arresting officers allegedly found Zhu and a knife they believe was used in the killing.Virginia Tech used a text message system and a bill board to warn students after the murder victim was discovered.

Zhu is to be presumed innocent until other wise proven.

Cut it out. Just because he is wearing stripes does not mean he should be treated as a zebra.

Senseless violence happens everywhere, everyday and the waste of 2 more promising lives. :-(
Does LP have any more information about this?

He didn't just 'stab' her, he cut off her head. Symantics but still...

Who cuts off a chick's head?
Now I know Lorean Bobbitt cut off her man's head but that was different... and a different type of head.

WOW!!! WTF is going on at Virginia Tech????

I would feel less afraid if this was labeled a domestic situation....and not a situation where this guy just flipped out and cut off her head.

There's something about sudden psychosis without provocation that scares *ish out of me.

Not saying that anyone deserves to have their head cut off even if they were provoked.

Psychiatry mind control drugs play a major role of all those senseless crime. You, any one, will do the same thing under the impact of certain mind control drugs. It is a project of CIA. Please search MK-ultra for more information.

Boycott any school where campus murder took place.

If you boycott, soon there will be no schools left to attend.
