RICHARD MCBEEF


Below is an introduction to a one act play by Cho Seung-Hui, the young man that stepped into the darkness of his mind and went on a massacre spree at Virginia Tech University.

Many blogs have theories as to the reason of Cho’s mental explosion.
Captain’s Quarters theory speculates that Cho delusionaly related to either radical Mohammedanism or violent fundamentalist Christian cults. Other blogs have other theories, Captain’s Quarters points you in a direction to read the theories.

I am indebted to Captain’s Quarters for leading me to the
Smoking Gun, which published Cho’s way disturbing one act play.

Virginia Killer's Violent Writings
April 17, 2007


Play told of pedophilic stepfather, murder of 13-year-old boyAPRIL 17--The college student responsible for yesterday's Virginia Tech slaughter was referred last year to counseling after professors became concerned about the violent nature of his writings, as evidenced in a one-act play obtained by The Smoking Gun. The play by Cho Seung-Hui, a 23-year-old English major, was submitted last year as part of a short story writing class. Entitled "Richard McBeef," Cho's bizarre play features a 13-year-old boy who accuses his stepfather of pedophilia and murdering his father. A copy of the killer's play can be found below. The teenager talks of killing the older man and, at one point, the child's mother brandishes a chain saw at the stepfather. The play ends with the man striking the child with "a deadly blow."

Actually Mr. Anonymous I did not make the stretch. I just pointed out the wild fire spreading across the blogosphere. These blogs are definitely of a higher quality of writing than mine.

Mr. Anonymous are you concerned the dots connect? :-)
