*Update* He;s outon $50,000 bail awaiting trial.
"A part-time Boston University student accused of threatening to recreate the bloodshed at Virginia Tech at his ex-girlfriend’s college is expected to be released today on $50,000 cash bail but must remain at home and will be monitored by an electronic bracelet.
Andrew Rosenblum, 20, pleaded not guilty today to three counts of intent to do bodily harm. He must wear the monitoring device until his trial.
Rosenblum was arrested in Newton-Wellesley Hospital today and arraigned a few hours later in Roxbury District Court.
Rosenblum shuffled into court this morning to face charges he sent threatening e-mails to an ex-girlfriend where he allegedly said he would recreate the Virginia Tech bloodshed at her school, Wheelock College.
“(I)’m gonna (expletive) bring a gun to your school and kill you and K (another female student) and everybody you love. It’s gonna be VT all over again,” Rosenblum is alleged to have written in an e-mail to his ex-girlfriend.
“Seriously I’m just that demented,” Rosenblum wrote in a police report obtained by the Herald Tuesday.
Rosenblum was picked up by Needham police officers at his parents’ Wildwood Drive home Tuesday after Boston police responded to a 911 call placed by a student at Wheelock College, a private college for women in the city. Police brought the 20-year-old to Newton-Wellesley Hospital as BPD police sought an arrest warrant.
The 5-foot-5-inch Rosenblum is also the founder and host of GameLife Video Game Review Show that is streamed on MTV’s broadband video channel, Overdrive.
Rosenblum’s father, Howard Rosenblum, refused comment today but his attorney, J.W. Carney Jr., said his client was upset and did not choose his words wisely.
“Sometimes kids don’t know the power of words,” Carney told the Herald today.
Carney said Rosenblum was despondent over the death of his grandmother and the break-up with the alleged victim.
“He used inappropriate language to show his pain,” said Carney. “He’s an immature young man upset over the break up and death of a grandmother.”
In the courtroom today was BU campus Detective Ron Ford who asked for and received a no trespass order at BU against Rosenblum.
“We didn’t want to take any chances with the safety of students,” Ford said.
Rosenblum was a full-time student at Marist College in New York but left to take a semester off, Carney said. He was taking an art and religion class at BU, Carney added.
Prosecutor Jonathon Thynes called Rosenblum’s alleged threats “very inflammatory comments.”
Roxbury District Court Judge Ed Redd also refused to allow Rosenblum to attend temple saying, “I have some serious concerns about that.”
I like how they call her his girlfriend after....what, three pity dates?
I don't know if ay of you remember short-lived game show GameLife, which had a bunch of socially awkward teens PAINFULLY talking about games in front of a camera, but if you do:
Some of you may have been fans of GameLife and would certainly recognize who Andrew Rosenblum is. If you're familiar with Rosenblum and the show, then this news may come as somewhat of a shock. According to Boston police reports, the GameLife host was picked up as a result of "an e-mail threatening to kill an ex-girlfriend and recreate the Virginia Tech bloodshed at her school."
Rosenblum allegedly wrote these words to the 19-year-old female target:
“(I)’m gonna (expletive) bring a gun to your school and kill you and K (another female student) and everybody you love. It’s gonna be VT all over again,” 20-year-old Andrew Rosenblum allegedly wrote in an e-mail to the victim just hours after 32 people were gunned at Virginia Tech.
“Seriously I’m just that demented,” Rosenblum wrote, according to a BPD report. He ended the message with a threat to commit homicide and suicide: “killing people can change people’s lives forever. (T)he best is in the end when I pull the trigger on myself, too.”
Allegedly, the girl had gone out with Rosenblum on three separate occasions and once that had ended the harassment began. From the Boston Herald:
The 19-year-old woman told cops she went on three dates with Rosenblum at the beginning of the school year, but had broken up with him. Rosenblum then allegedly harassed her, she said, according to the police report.
The victim began receiving the disturbing instant e-mail messages just before midnight Monday - the day of the Virginia Tech massacre - which she saved and printed, according to the report.
Bad timing, bad taste, and poor judgement all around, Andrew."

I mean, I thought the show was lame and the kid was a walking stereotype, but c'mon.
