About this Article
Anya Bhamani says she was "book buddies" with 5-year-old Olivia Dworakowski at Brookdale Elementary School in Naperville. But Tuesday was the last time she would see Olivia at school. That night, authorities say, she was stabbed to death in her Naperville home by Elzbieta Plackowska. Anya and her family joined more than 100 others in a candlelight vigil. The vigil, Anya says, "helped with my feelings."Latest Galleries
