NEW YORK, NY – City Comptroller John C. Liu issued the following statement today regarding the death of eight-year old Leiby Kletzky:

“Our hearts are with the family of little Leiby Kletzky in a time of indescribable tragedy. As the father of young son almost the same age as Leiby, I cannot begin to imagine what they and their community are suffering. We pray that justice will be dispensed without delay for this crime which horrifies and offends us all. The NYPD, Shomrim Patrol and Hatzolah are owed our gratitude for their quick response.”
