But Anna Chantsri, who described
herself as M.L.'s best friend, told the
(\sbuiy Park Press he is "sweet and realty
innocent."
"He wouldn't hurt a fly," she said.
Weinstein, on the other hand, was
universally recognized as a teacher with
a big heart who kept an eye out for others.
Under a Droeram she started three vears
ago, students who performed good deeds
aarned a chance at a free lunch for two
from a local fast food restaurants.
Some students also dealt with their

son, Daniel, said assistant principal
James Ouellette.
There also was a tribute on the
message sign on the school's front lawn:
'Mrs. Wejnstein, thanks for your random
acts of kindness. We will remember you."
By Wednesday, more than a dozen
aouquets of flowers lay around the sign.
