Personal Journeys: His own worst enemy
Victor Le was a brilliant student who seemed destined for greatness. Until his mind turned on him.

Victor Le's mother Tuyet Van Trinh and sister, Sophia Le, holding their dog, Chocolate, are shown in a portrait at their Duluth home Thursday November 14, 2013. Lilburn resident Victor Le, 20, graduated high school (in three years) with a 4.0, and then attended Emory University on scholarship, where everyone assumed he was destined to be a neurosurgeon. But debilitating depression/schizophrenia took hold, and despite the best efforts of family, therapists and Victor himself, he could not overcome his disorder. On Sept. 12 last year, Victor called Gwinnett County 911, posing as a cousin, and tricked police into responding to his home and shooting him dead, after he'd pointed a (very realistic) BB gun at the officer.
