This video surveillance network system is called the Leiby Kletzky Security Initiative. Kletzky was the 8-year-old boy brutally dismembered three years ago by Levi Aron, who was arrested after a private video camera showed him leading the lost boy away before murdering him.
In Borough Park, the surveillance video camera now silently watches over the primarily Orthodox Jewish community. It is part of what will be a taxpayer-funded 80-camera surveillance system obtained for Borough Park by its assemblyman, Dov Hikind.

Security Surveillance Cameras Coming To Boro Park
In a city that’s ramped up surveillance since the 9/11 attacks, the next big installation of security cameras is not in the bustle of midtown Manhattan or near a well-known tourist attraction but in a leafy section of Brooklyn known for its low crime and large Orthodox Jewish population.
A hundred security cameras will be installed on public lampposts throughout the Midwood and Borough Park neighborhoods in the coming months — the result of a $1 million state grant secured in the wake of a horrifying tragedy: the 2011 abduction, dismemberment and murder of an 8-year-old Hasidic boy named Leiby Kletzky. The taxpayer-funded security system will augment an already insular Orthodox community that has its own volunteer police force, ambulances and schools.
The cameras will be monitored and controlled by a private security company. As a result, the police will have to ask for permission if they want to access the footage.

Hakomas Matzeiva of Leiby Kletzky Z"L
Deans, NJ - Emotions ran high at a small gathering today in Deans, New Jersey, as a hakamas matzeiva was held for Leiby Kletzky, four weeks to the day before the Borough Park boy’s first yahrtzeit on the eleventh day of Tammuz. The Kletzky family was joined by their Rov, Rabbi Binyomin Eisenberger, and approximately two dozen others at Washington Cemetery.
Following Tehillim, Kel Maley Rachamim and the singing of Acheinu, those assembled at Leiby’s kever placed stones on the matzeiva, which bore a poignant inscription, describing Leiby as a korban for all of Klal Yisroel, who ultimately served as an inspiration to Jews worldwide. The matzeiva also portrayed Leiby’s exceptional character praising him as “loved by all those who knew him…excelled in the pleasantness of his middos…thirsted for the word of Hashem and his mitzvos…and had a pleasant face for those who knew him and his rabbeim.”

Gerard Marrone Levy Aron's Attorneys Quits Case
NEW YORK (WABC) -- As police prepared to remove more evidence from Levy Aron's attic apartment, his legal team suffered a body-blow today. Defense co-counsel Gerard Marrone abruptly resigned from the case, telling Eyewitness News that he simply could not in good conscience continue to represent Aron, who is accused of abducting and murdering an 8-year-old Leiby Kletzky in Brooklyn.
"The allegations were too horrific, and it's not something I wanted to be involved in," he told Eyewitness News. "I have three boys. One of my sons is seven. I looked at my own children and there are no words. You see the victim and you feel so sad."
Marrone admitted there was a time earlier this week when he cried over the death of Leiby Kletzky.
