Two days after the massacre at Virginia Tech pictures and writings from the shooter arrived at NBC news studios.

The package appears to have been mailed to NBC News at around 9 a.m. on Monday about two hours after the dormitory shooting. It was recieved Wednesday by NBC and contained 23 QuickTime video files with Cho speaking directly to the camera, photographs and writings, NBC News President Steve Capus said.

The package was immediately turned over to the FBI, Capus said.
