What news story about a dead child ever describes them as anything other than lively, bubbly, cheery, bright etc?

I can remember one interview of a dead kids "friend" who described him as a bully...

Kid: He had a happy go lucky attitude
News Anchor: WHat do you mean?
Kid: He would go around thumping us.

(Ofcourse there is a chance that I misunderstood it...)
