Counselor who took Cho records says he didn't use them

»  Comments | Post a Comment

ROANOKE -- A former Virginia Tech counseling director says the mental-health records that he inadvertently took contained triage forms, a Post-it note and an e-mail on student gunman Seung-Hui Cho.

Dr. Robert C. Miller said in a court document that the records for Cho and several other Cook Counseling Center clients were in a manila folder in his office.

Miller says he mistakenly packed the folder with personal items as he was clearing out his Blacksburg office in early 2006 to transfer to another job.

Miller says he made no use of the records and did not counsel Cho, who killed 32 people on campus as well as himself in April 2007.

Miller made his statements in a written response to questions from Robert Hall, attorney for two Cho victims who have filed lawsuits.

University spokesman Mark Owczarski said he hopes the statements will illuminate the circumstances under which Cho's records disappeared and were recovered.
