Police say the video shows Smith looking up at Evans before "plunging the knife down from above her head a second time and into the right-side neck/chest area of Evans."
After Evans was stabbed, Smith makes two more stabbing motions, injuring dikkerson and Walker, the criminal complaint says.
Officers obtained the video of the incident from a resident of the dorm.
Detectives also gained information from interviews with dikkerson and Walker and security footage from the university's front gate.
Smith is charged with 1st-degree murder, 3rd-degree possession of an instrument of crime, aggravated assault and other related charges.
"This is a parent's worst nightmare," DA Deb Ryan said. "This senseless and tragic incident is devastating to not only the families of the victims, but the entire Lincoln University community students, staff and parents- who believed their college campus was a safe place."
Evans was a senior set to graduate in May. His family released a statement thanking investigators and expressing their grief.
"My husband and I are devastated over the loss of our beloved son Jawine. We thought he would be safe on the campus of Lincoln University, and never dreamed such a terrible thing could happen here. We're stunned at the lax
security but extremely grateful to Chester County law enforcement for catching Jawine's killer, and for DA Ryna's comments showing she is taking a strong public stand to bring his killer to justice," Jawine's mother, Beverly Evans, said.
Ryan and Lincoln University officials held a press conference Thursday morning to announce the charges against Smith.
The DA's office believes the stabbing was premeditated, noting Smith drove more than one hour from Philadelphia to the campus with a knife.
