Cho Video; Columbia Rape; Warmer Weather?

Thursday, April 19, 2007

So if you're looking to see the frightening video of Seung Hui Cho on our air, or ABC's, sorry. You won't find it.

We've made the decision, rightly I think, that it was a story yesterday, but to continue showing the video of this disturbed, mentally ill killer is more gratuitous than newsworthy.

And so we won't.

But we will have more from Virginia Tech, tonight at 11, where they still haven't positively identified 14 of the victims.

Jeff Rossen is there for us.

Also at 11, there's a "take back the night" march at Columbia University tonight -- this in the wake of the brutal attack and rape last weekend of a young woman who was held hostage and brutally assaulted for 19 hours. She managed to escape in an incredible display of guts and determination.

The development tonight is that cops have released a picture of the suspect. Jim Dolan has the story for us tonight.

We'll also have any breaking news of the night, plus Lee Goldberg's warmer AccuWeather forecast and Scott Clark with the night's sports. I hope you can join Liz Cho and me, tonight at 11.
