Outrage! "Shomrim" has list of sexual child abusers and will not share list with Police!



They call themselves "Shomrim" (protectors), they should call themselves "Mazikim" (harmful)!
In a report in today's Daily News,  Shomrim advocate Jacob Daskel told the reporter, "The community doesn't go to the police with these names because the rabbis don't let you. It's not right," .
Read this disturbing Daily News Article!





A Jewish patrol in Borough Park keeps a list of suspected child predators, but Levi Aron's name wasn't on it, the Daily News has learned.
"No one ever complained to us about him," Borough Park Shomrim member Jacob Daskel said.
The list has about 15 names. It was compiled by Shomrim members and is not shared with the NYPD because some rabbis oppose civilian police involvement.
"The community doesn't go to the police with these names because the rabbis don't let you. It's not right," Daskel said.
He said when a resident tells Shomrim they suspect someone is a molester, the patrol finds a picture and shows it to area kids, trying to substantiate the allegation.
"It's against Halacha [Jewish law] to go the police without speaking to the rabbis," said Rabbi Joseph Hershkowitz, 57, who counsels families in Borough Park and Williamsburg.
"We consider Shomrim and Hatzolah [the Jewish ambulance service] family. So you go to family first," said Hershkowitz.
He stressed that the rules apply only when a life isn't in danger. "Nothing supersedes an emergency," he said.
Leiby Kletzky's family first reported his disappearance to Shomrim. The patrol notified cops three hours later. "We have no problem with Shomrim being notified but we'd like to be notified as well," said Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly. But in Leiby's case, he said, the delay didn't make a difference.
Rabbis said their followers talk to Shomrim because they trust it to get the job done.
"If you call 911 they are not personally involved in your problem. But if you call Shomrim, every job is number one," said Bernard Freilich, a Jewish liaison to the NYPD. "But my position is to always call the cops."


Now read something even more disturbing  from "Vosizneias" reported by Sandy Eller
The report says that 2 yeshiva boys, actually saw Levi Aron's car and instead of reporting it to the Police, they reported it to Shomrim, and inquired about the Honda, and Shomrim couldn't confirm it and Shomrim didn't follow up..... this was during a very critical time .....Police may have been able to save little Leiby Kletzky had they known.. I highlighted in red the problem:
Read:


While Police Commissioner Raymond Kelley publicly credited Shomrim for locating the gold car that was used to lure Leibby Kletzky HY’D to his death, according to Yiddish weekly newspaper ‘Der Yid’, it was a pair of Flatbush yeshiva bochurim who spotted the car and provided Shomrim with the license plate number of the vehicle.  The two young men, who are brothers, joined the search after watching video of the missing boy being lured into a car on Vos Iz Neias. according to their account.
As the pair drove around Flatbush, they noticed a car that fit the description parked on East 3rd Street.  Taking pictures and video of the car, they parked further down the one way street, deciding to watch for any passing cars that might match the appearance of the vehicle they had seen on Vos Iz Neias.  During that time, the gold car they had photographed never passed their vehicle.
The pair drove to East 2nd Street, between Cortelyou Road and Avenue C and the same vehicle they had first seen on East 3rd Street was now parked on East 2nd Street.  Wondering how the car had gotten there without having passed them on East 3rd Street they decided paid closer attention, noticing a man wearing a cap who not only appeared to be nervous but also resembled the man they had seen on the video of Leibby’s disappearance.
As the man entered a house, the brothers debated what to do.  Driving past the house again, they noted that the gold Honda that had first been parked on East 3rd and then on East 2nd was now nowhere to be found.  A call to Shomrim couldn’t confirm that the vehicle in question was a Honda and, discouraged, the two decided to return home.
As they looked for parking on their block, the two saw a member of Shomrim and several reporters from Der Yid.  Approaching the group, the brothers showed them the video of the car on they had taken on East 2nd Street.  The license plate number was called into Shomrim at 1:42 AM and just a short time later, the police arrived at Levi Aron’s house where the gruesome discovery was made.
Dusiznies: Why did they call Shomrim to begin with?

Levi Aron Awaits Arraignment For Murder Of Leiby Kletzky, gets a ride in police car wearing his "kippah"

Levi Aron at arraignment
Watch Aron wearing a Kippah!



He's a former butcher who confessed to killing 8-year-old Leiby Kletzky and cutting up the boy's body. Now, Levi Aron awaits arraignment on a murder charge while detectives in two different cities try to find out why he carried out this crime, and if he is behind any others.


Investigators took DNA samples from Aron, 35, Thursday morning as compare them with genetic prints left behind at other crime scenes, with the focus on unsolved crimes against children.
Essentially, police have two reasons to suspect that Aron is a serial killer. One, the precision with which he tried to cover up the murder. When cops raided his home Wednesday and asked Aron where the boy was, he gestured to his otherwise empty refrigerator, which had three bloody knives and a cutting board inside. They found the little boy's severed feet in separate Ziploc bags in the freezer.


Detectives say the man who most people describe as a quiet loner had also packed other parts of the boy's body into sealed plastic bags that he put into a red suitcase which he then put in a dumpster two miles away. All are signs, police say, of careful planning by a killer to cover his tracks.


Another reason detectives are investigating whether or not Aron carried out this sort of crime before is the abrupt change in his life six years ago. That's when he left his lifelong home in Brooklyn for Memphis, Tennessee after marrying a woman from there whom he'd met online.


He stayed for two years, working as a kosher butcher in a supermarket for a time and as a security guard. He remained married for only a year, and his wife ended up filing an order of protection against him. Chip Washington, a spokesman for the sheriff's office of the county in which Memphis is located, Shelby County, wrote in an email to The Commercial Appeal newspaper of Memphis, "According to our records, he appeared in court where the charges were dismissed so there is NO mug shot available. This is the ONLY record we have of him."


Not much else is known about Levi Aron's life in Memphis. Investigators from both the NYPD and Shelby County Sheriff's Office search for more details now.


Late Thursday morning, NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly confirmed at a newsconference that his detectives are looking into the possibility that Aron is a serial killer. However, Kelly said, "there's no reason to believe that at this time."


Kelly said that his investigators have been in contact with a variety of law enforcement agencies that Aron may have come into contact with, but there was no indication of significant foul play on Aron's part. "They don't have any record of him... no strange, unusual or illegal activities. We don't have any record of that at this time."


Another place detectives are searching are Aron's home, a third floor attic apartment in the Kensington neighborhood of Brooklyn. There were 3 computers in the house," Commissioner Kelly said. "That information is going to be gone through."


Back in Borough Park, Brooklyn, one of Aron's neighbors told police that he had tried to get her son into his car months ago, but she assumed Aron was trying to be helpful.


Also, in his written and taped confessions to detectives, Aron said that he suffocated the boy with a towel on Tuesday, and even took Leiby with him to a wedding Monday evening upstate in Monsey. But investigators believe the killing took place Monday, giving Aron time to dismember his victim and try to hide the evidence.


Commissioner Kelly said that even he was emotionally affected by this case, despite handling and overseeing decades of hard cases. "In this business you see a lot of violence," he said, regarding the thousands of cases he's dealt with. "There's usually some twisted logic [involved]. Here, it defies all logic. That's what's so terribly disturbing about this case."

Updated !!!Levi Aron brought little Leiby Klatzky to Monsey for a Wedding before Killing Him! Tied him Up and possibly tortured him!



According to his own written confession, the sick crazed killer of little Leiby Klatzky brought him to a wedding in Monsey.....


UPDATE JULY 14, 2011 12:38PM
Police reviewing time stamped video recordings of Ateres Charna Wedding Hall in Monsey, indicate that Levi Aron was indeed at the Wedding but little Leiby Klatzky was not with him, so they believe,  Leiby was outside in the car.


Updated 4:30PM
Accused Brooklyn child-killer Levi Aron apparently went to a relative’s wedding at a New Square catering hall the same day he smothered 8-year-old Leiby Kletsky with a towel, police said.



New York City Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said that police believe Aron did go to the wedding Monday night but he did not take the boy, whose dismembered body was found two days later. Other guests at the wedding confirmed Aron was there, but didn't see the boy, the commissioner added. Detectives seized video surveillance from a New Square catering hall, where the wedding took place, The Journal News learned today. New York City detectives stopped by Ateres Charna wedding hall in New Square Wednesday and downloaded footage from Monday night’s wedding, said the hall’s manager, Izzy Goldstein. “The police were here yesterday,” Goldstein told The Journal News today. “They said he (Aron) said he was here. But I did not see him and I did not want to see him. It’s very gruesome.” He said 400 to 600 people, including many children, attended the Jewish wedding. The bride was from Far Rockaway, Queens, and the groom from Rockland. He has no idea whether Aron and the boy attended. “I wouldn’t know who he is,” Goldstein said. “I hope he was not here. An evil person like him, it’s unbelievable what he did. I didn’t sleep all night.” He said he wouldn’t contact the newlyweds. This would ruin their simcha — happy time — if they knew someone like him 
might have been there,” he said.  Aron is related to the bride, said Nathan Meisner, of L'Chaim Catering in Monsey, which handled the wedding. “I know the groom personally,” he said. “The piece of venom (Aron) was related to 
the other side, not the groom side.” In what WNBC says is his statement to police, Aron says of Leiby: "I asked if he wanted to go for the ride — wedding in Monsey — since I didn’t think I was going to stay for the whole thing since my back was hurting. He said ok. Due to traffic, I got back around 11:30 p.m. … so I brought him to my house thinking I’d bring him to his house the next day."   Aron told police he panicked when he saw the fliers for the missing boy and smothered him with a towel.  Investigators believe Leiby may have been tied up and tried to fight off his alleged captor before he was killed, police officials said today. At a news conference, Kelly said Aron had scratches on his arms and wrists — a sign "there was some kind of struggle." There also were marks on the victim's remains that could have been caused by restraints, the commissioner added. A preliminary medical examination indicates Leiby Kletzky was "smothered or suffocated," Kelly said. Aron appeared in court today and was ordered to undergo a psychological evaluation after his lawyer told a judge that his client might be mentally ill. "He has indicated to me that he hears voices and has had some hallucinations," attorney Pierre Bazile said. Walking home alone from day camp for the first time on Monday afternoon, the 8-year-old disappeared. A day-and-a-half search led police to the Brooklyn home of a man seen on a surveillance video with the young Orthodox Jewish child. They asked Levi Aron: Where is the boy? The man nodded toward the kitchen, authorities said, where blood stained the freezer door. Inside was the stuff of horror films — severed feet, wrapped in plastic. In the refrigerator, a cutting board and three bloody carving knives. A plastic garbage bag with bloody towels was nearby. "It is every parent's worst nightmare," Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said Wednesday, following the arrest of 35-year-old Levi Aron on a charge of second-degree murder. Leiby disappeared Monday afternoon while on his way to meet his mother on a street corner seven blocks from his day camp, the first time the young Hasidic child was allowed to walk the route alone. Authorities said he had evidently gotten lost after missing a turn, and had reached out to Aron, a stranger, for help. The gruesome killing shocked the tight-knit Hasidic community in Borough Park, in part because it is one of the safest sections of the city and because Aron is himself an Orthodox Jew, although not Hasidic. The Hasidim are ultra-Orthodox Jews. "This is a no-crime area," said state Assemblyman Dov Hikind, whose district includes the area. "Everybody is absolutely horrified," he said. "Everyone is in total shock, beyond belief, beyond comprehension ... to suddenly disappear and then the details ... and the fact someone in the extended community ... it's awful." While the medical examiner's office said it was still investigating how the boy was killed, the body was released so that the boy could be buried Wednesday evening according to Jewish custom. Thousands gathered around a Borough Park synagogue for the funeral service. Speakers broadcast over a loudspeaker, chanting and speaking in Yiddish and Hebrew. They stressed the community's resilience and unity after what one called an unnatural death. "This is not human," said Moses Klein, 73, a retired caterer who lives near the corner where the boy was last seen. The break in the case came when investigators watched a grainy video that showed the boy, wearing his backpack, getting into a car with a man outside a dentist's office. Detectives tracked the dentist down at his home in New Jersey, and he remembered someone coming to pay a bill. Police identified Aron using records from the office, and 40 minutes later he was arrested, shortly before 3 a.m. Wednesday. Aron told police where to find the rest of the body; it was in pieces, wrapped in plastic bags, inside a red suitcase that had been tossed into a trash bin in another Brooklyn neighborhood, Kelly said. would not otherwise shed any light on a motive except to say Aron told them he "panicked" when he saw photos of the missing boy on fliers that were distributed in the neighborhood. Police were looking into whether Aron had a history of mental illness. Police said Aron, who is divorced, lives alone in an attic in a building shared with his father and uncle. Kelly said it was "totally random" that Aron grabbed the boy, and aside from a summons for urinating in public, he had no criminal record. A neighbor told authorities her son had said Aron had once tried to lure him into his car, but nothing happened and she didn't think much of it until the news of the killing, police said. He lived most of his life in New York and worked as a clerk at a hardware supply store around the corner from his home, authorities said. Co-workers said Aron was at work on Tuesday. "He seemed a little troubled," said employee Chaim Kramer, who added Aron usually came and went quietly. Aron lived briefly in Memphis, Tenn., and his ex-wife, Deborah Aron, still lives in the area. She said he never showed signs of violence toward her two children from a previous relationship. "It's utter disbelief," she said from the toy-littered backyard of her home in the Memphis suburb of Germantown. "This ain't the Levi I know." Deborah Aron said the couple divorced about four years ago after a year of marriage. She described Levi Aron as a person who was shy until he got to know you and said he enjoyed music, karaoke and "American Idol." She said he attended Orthodox Jewish services in Memphis. He was "more of a mother's boy than a father's boy," who lived at home until he met her, she said. She said Levi injured his head when he was hit by a car while riding his bike at the age of 9 and suffered problems stemming from that accident.





Here read his confession:

This transcript has been edited to remove parts of an extremely graphic nature. It has not been edited for clarity. These are the suspect's words as written on a legal pad during questioning, according to law enforcement sources.

My name is Levi Aron... On Monday evening around 5:30 I went to my dentist, Dr. Sorcher, to make a payment for visit for exam routine.

A boy approached me on where the Judaica book store was.  He was still there when went out from the dentist’s office. He asked me for a ride to the Judaica book store.  While on the way he changed his mind and wasn’t sure where he wanted to go.






So I asked if he wanted to go for the ride -- wedding in Monsey -- since I didn’t think I was going to stay for the whole thing since my back was hurting.  He said ok.

Due to traffic, I got back around 11:30 p.m. … so I brought him to my house thinking I’d bring him to his house the next day. He watched TV then fell asleep in the front room. I went to the middle room to sleep. That next morning, he was still sleeping when I was ready to leave.

So I woke him and told him I’ll bring him to his house… when I saw the flyers I panicked and was afraid.  When I got home he was still there so I made him a tuna sandwich....

"I was still in a panic ... and afraid to bring him home. That is when I went for a towel to smother him in the side room. He fought back a little."

"Afterwards, I panicked because I didn't know what to do with the body."

"... [I] carried parts to the back room, placing parts between the freezer and the refrigerator."

"I understand it may be wrong, and I'm sorry for the hurt that I have caused."
Afterwards -- I panicked because I didn’t know what to do with the body.… carried parts to the back room placing parts between the freezer and the refrigerator …
… went to clean up a little then took a second shower.  I panicked and .. Then putting the parts in a suitcase.  Then carrying suitcase to the car …placing in backseat on floor behind passenger side.
 … drove around approximately around 20 minutes before placing it in the dumpster on 20th street just before 4th Avenue.   Then went home to clean and organize.
I understand this may be wrong.

The Kletzky Family


With shock and grief clutching Borough Park in Brooklyn, thousands of mourners and residents poured into a neighborhood courtyard Wednesday evening for the funeral of an 8-year-old Brooklyn boy who was abducted and killed this week as he walked home from camp.

“Here lies my child. Purity of heart. Very quiet and very respectful. Satisfied and never demanding. My child is gone. I’m in very deep sorrow,” Nachman Kletzky said as he choked up.
He cried and shrieked during his speech, leading a crowd of thousands of faithful at a Borough Park synagogue in prayer and tears.
They spoke and chanted in Yiddish, stressing the community’s resilience and unity after what one called an unnatural death.
“I see and appreciate the love from the community,” said Rabbi Benjamin Eisenberger. “Love emanates from the community and God. We must continue to show support for family.”

Is Leiby Kletzky, Levi Aron's first victim? Not likely


Police do not believe that Kletzky is Aron's first victim. He cut up the body with such precision that investigators believe that he must have had previous unknown victims, and may very well be a child serial killer. Sources have told us that the FBI are investigating unsolved murders in Tenn and New York.

Sheila Anne Feeney from  AM New York postulates that 
It’s possible that Levi Aron, 35, the Kensington man accused of killing 8-year-old Leiby Kletzky, might be severely mentally ill or have a personality disorder. But “most of us gravitate to thinking that this fellow was a pedophile,” who allegedly killed the child for sexual excitement or to prevent him from telling anyone about a sexual assault, said N.G. Berrill, director of New York Forensic, a behavioral science consultant group.

Aron reportedly told cops he killed the boy in a panic, but that explanation didn’t wash with experts.

“That’s an after-the-fact statement offenders make,” to obscure actual motives, said Stanton Samenow, author of “Inside the Criminal Mind.” “There may have been sexual interest and there are very high odds there was sexual contact,” Samenow said.

Sometimes “there is sexual gratification in the dismemberment itself,” added Louis Schlesinger, a professor of forensic psychology at John Jay College and author of “Sexual Murder: Catathymic and Compulsive Homicide.”

The boy’s feet may have been kept as some sort of “trophy” or “prize,” possibly to be used for sexual gratification at a later time, Berrill added.

Rarely do such crimes occur out of the blue, nor are they out of character, said Samenow. While little is known at this point about the suspect, Samenow said that forensic investigations usually reveal a history of atypical, antisocial behaviors which may include deviant sexual interests, an extensive fantasy life, the need to control others, an inability to get along with peers or to respond in a constructive way to life’s challenges, and a track record of intimidating, deceptive, and even violent behavior.

Aron may have been abused himself, added Berrill, explaining that for some victims, committing violent acts is a way for them to “relive the experience” of their own childhoods but in the role of the aggressor.

But no history of abuse can justify the murder of an innocent child.

“People who commit terrible crimes come from all walks of life. It’s not the environment that makes them violent, but the way they respond and the way they think,” Samenow said.  “Typically, these people who have a brother or sister who grew up in the same environment, but who do not rush out and kill eight-year-olds,” he added.

The Kletzky murder rivets the attention of all New York in part because stranger abductions of children are “enormously, enormously rare,” in the words of Schlesinger. And they are almost inconceivable in the Orthodox community, which is believed by researchers to have lower rates of substance abuse and violence than society at large.

Parents need not put their children on lock-down out of fear for their safety, Schlesinger stressed, noting the Casey Anthony case is more representative of most child murders.

“The typical person who kills a child is the child’s mother, father, step father or another member of the family,” Schlesinger said.

Murderer of Leiby Kletzky, Levi Aron of East 2nd Street, Flatbush



The alleged murder's name is Levi Aron. He is 35 years old and lives at 549 EAST 2ND ST in Brooklyn.
 A Brooklyn source close to the situation reports that the  arrested man is ultra-Orthodox. .
35-year-old Levi Aron,  led police  to parts of the missing boy's body in his house in the fridge.. The actual body was stuffed in a red suitcase and hidden in a Dumpster outside an auto repair shop about two miles away, sources said.
Cops said Aron, who works at the Empire Supply hardware store on McDonald Avenue , Kensington, allegedly suffocated the boy before chopping him up. Police said they also found three knives in a butcher block inside Aron’s apartment.



Co-worker said Aron is divorced with no kids and acted completely normal at work yesterday.
“I can’t believe this,” he said. “He was a strange guy, but he was here yesterday and he was fine after killing this little boy.”



Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said the suspect Levi Aron told detectives that after he picked the boy up in his car and took him to his apartment, he later “panicked” after hearing about the missing person reports, which is why he killed him.
Some of the boy’s remains were found in Aron’s refrigerator, Kelly said.
“This was a horrendous crime,” Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said at a briefing Wednesday on the case.
Charges were pending, and information about an attorney for Aron, who turned 35 on Wednesday, was not immediately available.
Police got a tip about Aron based on surveillance video released late Tuesday night, and tracked him at his home in Kensington. Kelly acknowledged publicly the Shomrim Patrol for providing a license plate number that lead the to Levi.
When detectives arrived at Aron’s apartment, the door was open, Kelly said. They entered and asked where the boy was, and Aron nodded toward the kitchen, where police found carving knives covered with blood, along with human remains, in the refrigerator.
He then reportedly directed police to an area about 2 and a half miles away, near 20th Street and Fourth Avenue, where the rest of the boy’s remains were found in a black plastic bag inside a red suitcase that had been tossed in a Dumpster.
Aron lives in the third floor of his parents’ house on Avenue C. His parents live on the ground floor and another tenant lives on the second floor of the building.
Kelly said Aron lived in Memphis, Tenn. and moved back to Brooklyn two years ago. He said Aron has one summonses for public urination that he got last year.
“We have no record of this man being reported [as a pedophile],” said Kelly.
Cops said they do not know whether the boy was molested before being killed.
Investigators will be contacting authorities in Tennessee to piece together the details of his life, Kelly said.

9 Year Old Leiby Kletzky Dead! Body Found in Dumpster! Suspect Arrested! Watch Tape Footage showing Leiby following a man!



An 9-year-old Brooklyn boy who vanished while walking home alone from camp was found dead in a dumpster in Greenwood Heights early Wednesday morning, police sources said.
More than a dozen NYPD detectives swarmed the scene outside the Park Slope Auto Center at 651 Fourth Ave. where the dismembered remains of little Leiby Kletzky may were discovered. Sources said the body of the Orthodox Jewish boy was found after police checked the large gray trash container, which had its lid open.
Three suspects were in custody, police sources said.
"I've never seen a community feel more depression than they are at the moment," Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Borough Park) said he said in an interview broadcast on NY1. "Whoever did this is sick beyond belief."
Hikind said the suspected killer is Jewish.
A massive search by cops and hundreds of volunteers from the Orthodox Jewish community had been underway for Leiby, who had begged his parents to let him walk home alone from camp for the first time. His parents agreed to meet him halfway between his Borough Park school and the family's home on Monday afternoon.
But he never showed up - and now cops think his disappearance may be linked to a man he was seen following on the street.

And from the Wall Street Journal: Suspect arrested




Police are questioning a man in the death of Leibby Kletzky, the 9-year-old Brooklyn boy who disappeared Monday on his way home from day camp. Police raided the man’s home early Wednesday morning after Leibby’s remains were found.
Leibby was first reported missing around 5 pm Monday evening as he walked from the Nechmod camp on 44th Street in Borough Park to meet his mother seven blocks away at a doctor’s appointment. Police and neighbors mobilized a massive volunteer search effort to locate the boy, offering up to $100,000 as a reward for information.
Police made the grisly discovery of his remains early Wednesday, in a working refrigerator in a top-floor apartment at 466 East 2nd Street, according to New York Police Department spokesman Paul Browne.
The 35-year-old man who lives in that apartment was taken into custody at 2:40 am Wednesday and has made statements implicating himself in the boy’s death, Browne said.
Other body parts of the boy were found wrapped in a black garbage bag and placed inside a suitcase in a dumpster on 20th Street between 4th and 5th Avenues in Park Slope, police said.
A security video that showed Leibby talking to the man led detectives to the discovery.  The detectives were able to determine that the man had paid a bill at a dentist’s office and were able to obtain his name and address by going through the dentist’s records, Browne said. He added that there is no indication that the suspect knew Leibby previously.


Latest update from fox news 9:31 AM



Authorities took the 35-year-old man into custody Wednesday after the child's remains were allegedly found in a refrigerator inside the man's home. Other body parts believed to be those of Leibby were found by detectives wrapped in a black plastic garbage bag, inside a red suitcase that had been tossed into a trash bin in another neighborhood in Brooklyn, according to police. 
Chief police spokesman Paul J. Browne told FoxNews.com that the man, whom he did not name, remains in police custody. He has not been arrested, though "charges are pending," Browne said.  
At about 6:45 a.m., a crime unit with the New York City Police Department carted away the trash bin and put it in a truck, and police officers walked in a line looking for evidence under cars and on sidewalks.
The suspect lives alone in his apartment, in a building shared with his parents. The man, whose birthday is Wednesday, once had a summons for urinating in public but otherwise did not have a criminal record.
The man made statements implicating himself in the crime, Browne told the Associated Press, but would not go into detail. It is not known yet whether he knew the boy. 
"The nine-year-old boy was brutally murdered. Dumped," New York State Assemblyman Dov Hikind told MyFoxNY. "What kind of world are we living in?"
Thousands of people had joined the search for Leibby, who was last seen near 44th Street and 12th Avenue in the tight-knit Orthodox Jewish community of Borough Park just before 5 p.m. Monday. The boy was supposed to be meeting his mother about three blocks away.
Investigators hunting for the boy noticed the man on the video going into a nearby dentist about 5:30 p.m. Monday, Browne said. The dentist, located later in New Jersey, said he remembered someone coming in to the shop who wasn't a patient, but who was paying a bill for a patient there, and police were able to track down the man using records from the office. When they went to his home, they made the gruesome discovery.
The medical examiner's office will determine a cause of death and positive identification.
Security video shows the boy walking up 13th Avenue after leaving Boyan Day Camp. He appears to talk to a man who was driving a gold-colored sedan. The video does not show Leibby getting into the car, but the boy isn't seen in the footage again, MyFoxNY reports.
