Virginia Tech Wrongful Death Verdict

Just hours into deliberations, a verdict was reached Wednesday in a wrongful death case from the mass killings at Virginia Tech.

FOX News Radio’s Jared Halpern reports:

A Jury awarding two families of slain students four million dollars each; finding the University was negligent for waiting so long to send warnings about a shooter on campus. Seung-Hui Cho killed 32 people and then himself in the 2007 massacre. Administrators did not alert the campus until more than two hours after two students were killed in a dorm room.

Steger: “We were writing a notice, not a warning.”

University President Charles Steger telling Jurors, police believed at the time the shooting was an isolated incident. Despite the multi-million dollar verdict, Virginia State Law requires the awards capped at 100 thousand dollars.
