Officials said she was taken to Beth Israel Medical Center and later died.
Kimowitz was found unresponsive inside the home. He was pronounced dead at the said, according to the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office in the Post’s report.
“The brother was sitting right there in front of that tree with his head in hands, rocking … he was in shock. The only he kept saying was, ‘My brother lives there, my brother lives there,” the newspaper quoted an unnamed neighbor as saying.
“They have a little balcony that they would be playing out there with their kids,” Andrew De la Torre told the Times. “They’d have family friends over. Really nice people.”
One neighbor told that Post that Porter was known to visit the nanny outside in his car near the house.
Said one, “A couple of people are saying they saw him pacing up and down the street the day before. He was doing the same thing last week. A couple of the nannies were having a party the night before it happened and he was lurking in the wood off to the right.”
On social media, Kimowitz was mourned.
Other details about the case were not disclosed.
