In January of 2011, 27-year-old first-grade teacher Ellen Greenberg came home early from work and was found dead hours later on her kitchen floor by her fiance. She had twenty stab wounds covering her body, ten of them to the back of her neck and head, and a ten-inch knife buried deep into her heart. The Medical Examiner called it suicide. Ellen's parents have spent fourteen years and over $800,000 proving that's impossible. Renowned forensic experts find evidence of wounds inflicted after death, a crime scene was cleaned before investigators could properly examine it, and a fiancé who called his attorney uncle before calling 911. Ellen was planning her wedding, loved her students, and didn't like the sight of blood. Can someone really stab themselves ten times in the back of the head? And if Ellen didn't kill herself, why won't Philadelphia call it murder?Sources:Hulu Documentary: "Death in Apartment 603: What Happened to Ellen Greenberg?"https://www.cnn.com/2025/10/13/us/ellen-greenberg-death-philadelphia-cechttps://edition.cnn.com/2025/02/03/us/ellen-greenberg-philadelphia-case-update-cechttps://www.cnn.com/interactive/2024/01/us/ellen-greenberg-mystery-dghttps://www.foxnews.com/us/ellen-greenberg-case-pennsylvania-woman-found-dead-20-stab-wounds-ruled-suicidehttps://www.foxnews.com/us/pennsylvania-teacher-found-stabbed-20-times-ruled-suicide-parents-fight-justicehttps://www.inquirer.com/news/ellen-greenberg-suicide-ruling-philadelphia-parents-lawsuit-20250210.htmlhttps://www.inquirer.com/news/ellen-greenberg-death-suicide-philadelphia-lawsuit-20241217.htmlhttps://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/ellen-greenberg-case-philadelphia-suicide-rulinghttps://www.oxygen.com/crime-news/ellen-greenberg-death-ruled-suicide-despite-20-stab-woundshttps://www.cbsnews.com/philadelphia/news/ellen-greenberg-case-pennsylvania-supreme-courthttps://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/ellen-greenberg-case-pennsylvania-supreme-court-to-hear-casehttps://people.com/ellen-greenberg-death-investigation-timelineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/reverie-true-crime--4442888/support.Keep In Touch:Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/reveriecrimepodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/reverietruecrimeTumblr: https://reverietruecrimepodcast.tumblr.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/reverietruecrimeContact: ReverieTrueCrime@gmail.com
Political Scientists Jack Greenberg (Yale University) and John Dearborn (Vanderbilt University) have a new book that focuses on the idea of presidential self-restraint and the ways in which the U.S. Congress has tried to design Executive positions with an eye towards making real this dimension of presidential norms. The concept of presidential self-restraint is a component of how the president uses his/her executive powers: that the president has a certain expanse of power and chooses, based on a variety of reasons or outcomes, to husband some of that power, or restrain its use. Because presidential self-restraint is particularly hard to divine, especially in how presidents think about the execution of their powers, Greenberg and Dearborn turned to congressional considerations that essentially take into account this idea. Congress has spent quite a lot of time over the past fifty years (since Watergate) in designing appointed positions within the Executive branch in such a way as to flesh out a kind of restraint on the president's part. In so doing, Congress has attempted different means to insulate individuals/positions from potential abuse by a president. Congressional Expectations of Presidential Self-Restraint integrates a number of case studies of congressional action on presidential appointments to examine this push and pull between the legislative and executive branches. As the issue of self-restraint has become more pressing, Greenberg and Dearborn sketch out three foundational shifts that provides the framework for the way that Congress has tried to insulate executive positions, and the ways in which Congress has acknowledged the tension around depending on presidential self-restraint. The issues of political polarization, especially as demonstrated by congressional co-partisans with the president, the Supreme Court's growing commitment to constitutional formalism and unilateralism in the Executive, and Congress's unwillingness to defend its own powers and assert those powers all contribute to this conundrum of a reliance on presidential self-restraint that is often caught up in an expansion of the use of executive powers. The case studies provided demonstrate this conundrum and help us to see just how Congress tried to structure self-restraint into a number of different appointments and how presidents have tried to work around those constraints, some more successfully than others. This is a brief but complex analysis of the current dynamic between the president and Article II powers, the U.S. Congress's evaporating powers, and the Supreme Court's complicit role in fortifying an expansive understanding of presidential power.

On January 26, 2011, 27-year-old Ellen Greenberg left work early when a snowstorm hit Philadelphia. She stopped for gas on her way home, then spent the afternoon grading papers in the apartment she shared with her fiancé, Sam. That evening, Sam called 911 to report that he had found Ellen in the kitchen with a knife in her chest. She had been stabbed twenty times, including multiple wounds to the back of her head and neck. At first, the Medical Examiner ruled her death a homicide. But weeks later, the ruling was changed to suicide, shocking many. Ellen's parents have spent more than a decade fighting that decision, convinced their daughter didn't take her own life, and that the truth about what happened to her is still being covered up.

This week we discuss the case of Ellen Greenberg. A young woman who was mysteriously found stabbed to death in her apartment by her fiancé. First police rule it as a suicide, but after some more digging some more facts uncover it to be a homicide.

PART TWO: On January 26, 2011, twenty-seven-year-old first-grade teacher Ellen Greenberg was found dead in her Philadelphia apartment with twenty-three stab wounds and more than thirty bruises. Despite the violence of the scene, her death was ruled a suicide—a ruling that has been challenged for more than a decade by Ellen's parents, Josh and Sandee Greenberg. The case has since become one of the most hotly debated unsolved deaths in the country, raising questions about investigative integrity, forensic inconsistencies, and what justice really looks like when institutions close ranks. In this two-part episode, we revisit Ellen's case through the lens of the Hulu documentary Death in Apartment 603 and the newly released 2025 report by Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Lindsay Simon, which once again reaffirms suicide as the official manner of death. We unpack the new findings, the conflicting expert opinions, and the haunting contradictions that still surround the case.

The mysterious death of Ellen Greenberg continues to upset and shock Philadelphia residents and true crime followers nationwide as officials, once again, classify her 20 stab wounds to the neck, back, head, and heart as the result of an unaliving—not a suspicious death. The case, which has long been surrounded by controversy, was never formally investigated as a homicide. In this STS episode, Emmy Award-Winning Journalist Joel Waldman is joined by Ellen's parents Josh and Sandee Greenberg, Guy D'Andrea, and Former Judge Pat Dugan as they continue to fight for justice, answers and the truth about Ellen Greenberg. Originally ruled a homicide, the Medical Examiner quickly changed the finding to an unaliving, a decision that has fueled years of public skepticism. Even more unsettling, the same examiner has since admitted he now finds the case suspicious—yet a new review by another medical expert has concluded the opposite, returning the case to square one. With such a disturbing and peculiar set of injuries, many are left asking the same haunting question: what really happened to Ellen Greenberg?Thanks for supporting the show and being a part of #STSNation!

Today I'm joined by Director and Showrunner Nancy Schwartzman to discuss DEATH IN APARTMENT 603: WHAT HAPPENED TO ELLEN GREENBERG?The emotional and gripping docuseries investigates the mysterious death of Ellen Greenberg, a 27-year-old Philadelphia schoolteacher found dead in the apartment she shared with her fiancé on a snowy night in January 2011, just seven months before her upcoming wedding. Greenberg sustained 20 knife wounds and had 11 bruises on her body in various stages of healing. To the shock of many who knew her, detectives on the scene treated her death as a suicide; but when her autopsy results came back, her cause of death was ruled a homicide. Shortly thereafter, the manner of death was inexplicably reversed to suicide, and the city of Philadelphia shut the case without further investigation. Now, 14 years later, this three-part series exclusively follows Ellen's parents, Sandee and Josh Greenberg, as they fight to reopen the investigation and learn the truth about their daughter's untimely death.

The Rich Zeoli- Hour 3: 5:05pm- Judge Pat Dugan—Republican Candidate for District Attorney of Philadelphia—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his campaign as well as his pledge to review the Ellen Greenberg case. He explains, “the only way we are going to make our city safer is if we say goodbye to Larry Krasner. Send him back to San Francisco.” To learn more about his campaign, visit: https://www.judgeduganforda.com. 5:20pm- Democrats and media members are apoplectic over the Trump administration's decision to construct a grand ballroom at the White House—expanding the residence's East Wing. President Trump has insisted construction will be privately funded, at no expense to the taxpayer. Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) implored future presidents to rename the ballroom after Barack Obama. Meanwhile, a former Congressman said that the next Democrat to hold the presidency should demolish the renovation! 5:30pm- While speaking with a BBC reporter, Kamala Harris said she won't rule out running for president again. Hilariously, the reporter notes that oddsmakers currently think actor/wrestler Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has a better chance of being president than she does! 5:40pm- While appearing on an NBA podcast, Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) complained about his tough childhood—eating nothing by white bread and Kraft macaroni and cheese. But his father was a wealthy attorney for Getty Oil! Is this proof Newsom will say literally anything? 5:50pm- Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson freaked out after a reporter who used the term “illegal aliens” during a recent press conference. No wonder his approval rating is 6%. 5:55pm- Did Gov. JB Pritzker (D-IL) just say something nice about President Donald Trump??? Sort of.
On January 26, 2011, 27-year-old Ellen Greenberg left work early when a snowstorm hit Philadelphia. She stopped for gas on her way home, then spent the afternoon grading papers in the apartment she shared with her fiancé, Sam. That evening, Sam called 911 to report that he had found Ellen in the kitchen with a knife in her chest. She had been stabbed twenty times, including multiple wounds to the back of her head and neck. At first, the Medical Examiner ruled her death a homicide. But weeks later, the ruling was changed to suicide, shocking many. Ellen's parents have spent more than a decade fighting that decision, convinced their daughter didn't take her own life, and that the truth about what happened to her is still being covered up.

Peter Greenberg in conversation with David Eastaugh In 1977, White enrolled at Boston University to study journalism. While in school, he worked in a record shop in Brookline, Massachusetts, named Good Vibrations, where his singing was heard by musician Peter Greenberg of the Lyres. White adopted the stage name Barrence Whitfield to avoid being mistaken for superstar Barry White and began performing with Greenberg and former members of the Lyres as Barrence Whitfield & the Savages STARR AND THE CZARS, hailing from Washington, DC, bring together an all-star line-up of garage-rock veterans into one explosive new band. Fronted by JAKE STARR (Adam West, Jake Starr & The Delicious Fullness, Go Mod Go!, Goy Division…), the group also features PETER GREENBERG and MICHAEL LEWIS, two legends from Boston's trailblazing DMZ. After their time in DMZ, Greenberg and Lewis both carried the torch in Lyres, cementing their reputation as key figures of the late '70s and early '80s garage revival. Greenberg later went on to co-found The Customs and Barrence Whitfield & The Savages, while Lewis added his bass guitar work to bands such as The A-Bones, Yo La Tengo and The Schramms. Starr, meanwhile, became a fixture of Washington D.C.'s garage scene.

When Ellen Greenberg was found with 20 stab wounds, police called it suicide. Her family calls it impossible. This episode dives into one of the most puzzling and controversial cases in modern true crime.
Ellen Greenberg's shocking and suspicious death continues to raise questions more than a decade later. Officially ruled an unaliving by Philadelphia medical examiners, many believe this is a cover-up hiding a murder. Ellen Greenberg was a Philly teacher engaged to Sam Goldberg when she was found dead in her own apartment. Ellen was found with 20 stab wounds, including several to the back of her neck — details that those who loved her say make no sense. Friends and family insist Ellen would never unalive herself, and key pieces of evidence just don't seem to add up. In this Surviving The Survivor episode, Emmy Award-Winning Journalist Joel Waldman takes viewers inside Ellen's world, uncovering what was happening in her life at the time and why so many are demanding answers. What is the truth behind Ellen Greenberg's death — and will there ever be justice for Ellen? #BestGuests include Ellen Greenberg's close friends who are speaking to STS for the very first time. 911 Call Courtesy of @GavinFish who has also extensively covered this case.#justiceforellen #ellengreenberg #murdermystery #deathinvestigation #truecrimecommunity #truecrimepodcast #newsupdate #stsnationThanks for supporting the show and being a part of #STSNation!

If the system's goal was to quiet the Ellen Greenberg case with one last official ruling — it failed. Badly. The 2025 report from Philadelphia's Medical Examiner, reclassifying nothing and explaining even less, is now being dissected by the people who understand just how dangerous this kind of language can be. In this episode, defense attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole to pull the curtain back on how institutions like the M.E.'s office use carefully worded findings to sidestep accountability. They examine what the report conveniently redefines, what it conveniently omits, and why this case now represents a larger crisis in public trust. This isn't theory. This is what happens when legal self-preservation takes precedence over factual clarity — and it's playing out in plain sight. The Ellen Greenberg case isn't just unsolved. It's being strategically sealed shut. #EllenGreenberg #JusticeForEllenGreenberg #EllenGreenbergCase #BobMotta #HiddenKillersPodcast #TrueCrimeTruth #SystemicFailure #MedicalExaminerReport #InstitutionalDeflection #TonyBrueski Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The death of Ellen Greenberg has haunted Philadelphia for over a decade—but now, a new 2025 “independent” review by the same Medical Examiner's Office that once ruled her death a homicide, then reversed itself, has reignited public outrage. In this episode, we break down the new 32-page report by Dr. Lindsay Simon—billed as a “fresh look”—and expose just how deeply embedded bias and institutional self-preservation appear to be in its findings. From selective evidence interpretation to implausible forensic leaps, the review paints a troubling picture of a system investigating itself and calling it justice. We dissect the major red flags: • The knife in her chest, 20+ stab wounds—some in the back—and a locked apartment • Claims of “no signs of struggle,” despite over 30 bruises on Ellen's body • The “spinal cord artifact” explanation that dismisses incapacitation • Psychological characterizations based on anxiety—not suicidal ideation • How this report dismisses experts, overlooks key inconsistencies, and leans on confirmation bias Is this truly an objective review? Or is it a bureaucratic performance designed to close the book and shield the city from liability? We're unpacking every flaw, contradiction, and narrative sleight-of-hand in a case that refuses to stay silent. #EllenGreenberg #TrueCrime #MedicalExaminer #JusticeForEllen #PhiladelphiaCrime #ForensicFailure #CoverUp #WrongfulDeath #TrueCrimePodcast #DatelineStyle Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Two cases. Two women. Two very different ends of the justice system — and both asking the same question: how does this happen? In Philadelphia, Ellen Greenberg was found dead with twenty stab wounds, yet her death is still officially classified as a suicide. In Florida, Donna Adelson sits in a state prison for orchestrating her former son-in-law's murder, preparing to appeal a conviction that rocked her family to its core. Both cases raise a larger truth: the law doesn't always get it right — and when it does get it wrong, it rarely admits it. Defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole on Hidden Killers Live to unpack the legal and moral threads tying these two stories together. From medical examiner recantations and conflicted expert testimony to the complex machinery of appeals, we look at how American justice sometimes closes ranks instead of cases. What does it mean when a city won't reverse a death ruling everyone questions? What does it say when a wealthy Florida family can still fight the system for years after a life sentence? And why do so many families — from Greenberg to Markel — feel like they're fighting not for justice, but against it? This double feature dives into the fault lines of law, power, and truth. Because when systems protect themselves more than the people they serve, everyone should be asking — what does justice even mean anymore? #HiddenKillers #EllenGreenberg #DonnaAdelson #EricFaddis #TrueCrime #JusticeSystem #LegalAnalysis #TonyBrueski #DanMarkel #CrimeCommentary Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

More than 14 years after Ellen Greenberg was found dead in her Philadelphia apartment, the controversy has only grown louder. This year, Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Lindsay Simon re-affirmed the 2011 ruling of suicide — despite twenty stab wounds, including injuries to the back of the neck and skull. But the original pathologist, Dr. Marlon Osbourne, has now recanted his own finding, publicly declaring that he no longer believes Ellen took her own life. That one sworn statement has shaken a city and reignited a decade of distrust in its institutions. Today on Hidden Killers Live, defense attorney and former prosecutor Eric Faddis joins Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole to analyze what this new 2025 report really means — and what legal options the Greenberg family has left. Can a case like this ever be reopened after a settlement? What happens when a medical examiner reverses their opinion years later? And why does the system seem to fight so hard to protect its own narrative — even when the evidence screams otherwise? We dig into the forensics, the law, and the psychology of institutional loyalty.
