Delegate Jeffrey M. Frederick (R-Prince William) released the following statement regarding yesterday’s shootings at Virginia Tech:

"Our thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of the victims of this unprecedented tragedy. It is difficult to adequately express my most sincere condolences to those that lost loved ones, but I nevertheless share the great sadness that all Virginians are feeling now, and hope that those affected by -- and grieving over -- yesterday's events find peace and comfort, despite incredible losses. Amy and I also pray for those that lost their lives, that they are now in a place free from the evil that took place Monday."
