<p>The disturbing find was made by another of Aron’s brothers around 2:45 p.m., sources said.<br />
“He ran out of the house screaming, ‘my brother, my brother,’ ” said neighbor Kathleen Henderson, a retired Parks worker. “It was spooky.”<br />
Police on Friday blocked off E. 2nd St. in front of the cream-colored three-story home, now the site of a second nightmarish find, as they waited on the Medical Examiner.</p>

<p>An eerie hush enveloped the street, lined with nearly identical homes, as neighbors stayed indoors and peered at the crime scene from their windows.<br />
“Everyone keeps an eye an on that house for obvious reasons,” Henderson said. “No one trusted them after that incident with the little boy.”<br />
in 2012 Levi Aron pleaded guilty the 2011 kidnapping and murder of Leiby.<br />
Aron, now 40, confessed to snatching the boy off a Borough Park street a year earlier after he asked him for directions.<br />
Leiby was walking home from camp, on his own for the first time, and had gotten lost.<br />
Aron kept the boy in his apartment for more than a day, and drove him to a Rockland County wedding.</p>

<p>But the hardware store clerk panicked upon realizing a massive search was underway.<br />
He drugged Leiby, smothered him with a towel, then dismembered him and stuffed most of his remains into a suitcase that was found in a Dumpster about a mile from his house.<br />
The boy’s feet were found in Aron’s freezer.<br />
The kidnapping and brutal slaying sent shock waves through Borough Park, a tight-knit, predominantly Hasidic community.<br />
Asked if he wanted to apologize, the confessed child killer demurred and remained silent during jailhouse interview in 2011.<br />
“I sometimes hear voices,” he said, but refused to describe them or relay what they told him.</p>

<p>A court-ordered psychiatric exam portrayed Aron as a troubled and confused man who suffers from a “personality disorder.” The report said that his sister died while receiving treatment for schizophrenia in an institution.<br />
His younger brother at the time defended the other members of the Aron clan, saying that they were unaware of his sibling’s faculty for savagery.<br />
“It’s all based on assumptions,” Tzvi Aron said after his brother’s brutal act. “People who know us know we’re a good family.”<br />
Levi Aron later struck a deal to serve 40 years to life in prison. He is currently locked up at the maximum security Sullivan Correctional Facility in upstate Sullivan County.</p>
