Leiby Kletzky’s killer accepts 40-to-life deal
Levi Aron, who killed and dismembered 8-year-old Leiby Kletzky, was clearly a broken man in Brooklyn Supreme Court yesterday when he came to plead guilty to second-degree murder and kidnapping — a plea that guarantees a sentence of 40 years to life.
Dressed in orange prison clothes and surrounded by attorneys, he responded by questions from Justice Neil Jon Firetog with barely audible, one-word answers.
As he clearly had more and more trouble answering questions, one of his attorneys, Howard Greenberg, put his arm around him.
