Police and EMT workers at Virginia
Tech tell us that campus police were given a federal order to stand down
and not pursue killer Cho Seung-Hui as Monday's bloodshed unfolded.
Though wishing to remain anonymous
for obvious reasons, we have received calls from police and EMT's who
tell us that a stand down order was in place, and this is also confirmed
by eyewitness Matt Kazee, who is a Blacksburg local.
Kazee talked to local EMT's and
police who told him the same thing, that the order was to wait until
federal back up arrived before any action was taken. This explains the
complete non-response of the police in the two hour gap between Cho's
first two murders and the wider rampage that would follow later that
morning.
The policy of federal control over
the University was put in place following a previous shooting in August
2006 in which a police officer and a hospital security guard were
killed.
In addition, a former long-term
University police officer, George French, told the Alex Jones Show that
it is routine to seal off a campus on which a suspected gunman is loose.
“Setting up a series of roadblocks,
controlling access to very large pieces of property, is very much
routine on any university campus in Canada and in the United States,”
said French.
“After a double homicide, when
you’re looking for a dangerous fellow with a firearm, I find it
unfathomable that a series of roadblocks weren’t set up…to prevent the
felon from escaping.”
French could find no logical
conclusion other than deliberate inaction on the part of officials. “We
have another coordinated, allowed event…the parallels are so common in
each case; you can write the script in advance.”
