11: Why Does Philly PD Continue to Stonewall East To Attain Answers In Ellen Greenberg Murder?

In the world of true crime, few cases capture the imagination and intrigue of the public like that of Ellen Greenberg. A case that raises more questions than it answers, it has become a symbol of a justice system fraught with obstacles and a stubborn refusal to uncover the truth. The appeals are underway in the case of Ellen Greenberg, and her parents are now taking their battle for justice to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, challenging the suicide ruling that has shrouded her tragic death in mystery.

Ellen Greenberg's case is one that defies logic. Despite evidence suggesting a homicide rather than a suicide, the Philadelphia Medical Examiner's Office initially ruled her death as suicide. Ellen was found stabbed a shocking 20 times, with half of those wounds in the back and half in the head. The very nature of the injuries itself raises doubts about the official conclusion of suicide.

As Defense Attorney and host of the podcast "Defense Diaries," Bob Motta aptly put it, "The facts don't beget the ultimate conclusion in terms of it being suicide. It's the concept is absurd to me... No one's doing that." It is an assertion that has left many scratching their heads.

Suicide, particularly among women, is often associated with less violent methods, such as overdose or carbon monoxide poisoning. The sheer brutality of the wounds inflicted on Ellen contradicts the typical patterns of self-inflicted harm.

Bob Motta points out the perplexing nature of the case, "It's like a case where the cops all know who did it, and they just don't have the evidence to get them. Those are the cases that haunt these cops forever when they know who did it, but they just couldn't get the evidence to prove it." In Ellen's case, much of the evidence either went uncollected or, shockingly, was never examined.

One of the most troubling aspects of this case is the lack of a thorough investigation. The knife found in Ellen's chest was never checked for fingerprints, and crucial surveillance footage from the apartment building lobby and public areas went unscrutinized. Even her personal belongings, like her diary and laptop, have remained untouched in evidence storage.

The question that emerges is, why the reluctance to investigate thoroughly? Is there a hidden agenda at play? As Bob Motta points out, "It makes me think that they destroyed all the evidence. There has to be like a rational explanation as to why they're refusing to do it unless somebody's being protected."

The frustration surrounding this case extends to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, which have reportedly been denied repeatedly. The lack of transparency and cooperation in accessing evidence only adds to the mystique of the case.

The case of Ellen Greenberg is a chilling reminder of the shortcomings of our justice system. It raises disconcerting questions about the integrity of the investigation and the influence that may be preventing the truth from surfacing. As the appeals continue, one cannot help but wonder if justice will ultimately prevail, or if Ellen's case will remain forever shrouded in a cloud of secrecy, leaving us with more questions than answers.

Ellen Greenberg Report DESTROYED by Its Own Logic: What Are They Hiding? -WEEK IN REVIEW

Ellen Greenberg Report DESTROYED by Its Own Logic: What Are They Hiding? -WEEK IN REVIEW

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?

Ellen Greenberg Report Is Filled With Lies and Suspension Of Reality-WEEK IN REVIEW

Ellen Greenberg Report Is Filled With Lies and Suspension Of Reality-WEEK IN REVIEW

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?

Inside the Greenberg Cover-Up Claims, Attorney Eric Faddis Legal Breakdown

Inside the Greenberg Cover-Up Claims, Attorney Eric Faddis Legal Breakdown

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. This isn’t just a whodunit — it’s a how-did-they-get-away-with-it story that every citizen should be watching. Because if Ellen Greenberg can die this way and still be called a suicide, what does that say about our justice system and those who swear to uphold it? #HiddenKillers #EllenGreenberg #EricFaddis #TrueCrime #JusticeForEllen #ForensicScience #MedicalExaminer #LegalAnalysis #TonyBrueski #CrimeInvestigation Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Ellen Greenberg & Donna Adelson, Attorney Eric Faddis Expert Legal Breakdown

Ellen Greenberg & Donna Adelson, Attorney Eric Faddis Expert Legal Breakdown

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?

The Ellen Greenberg COVER-UP CONTINUES, Despite Public Pressure

The Ellen Greenberg COVER-UP CONTINUES, Despite Public Pressure

There’s no way around it — the 2025 Ellen Greenberg report is a system defending itself, not an honest reevaluation of a suspicious death. Ellen Greenberg was 27, engaged, and planning a wedding when she was found with 23 wounds. Years later, after national media coverage, civil litigation, and public pressure, the Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office claimed to conduct an “independent review.” The result? No change. Still suicide. Still silence on the most disturbing details. In this powerful breakdown, defense attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole to take apart the legal language, institutional incentives, and forensic deflections used to make this ruling appear conclusive. They explore how government agencies rewrite their own mistakes — and why Ellen’s case is one of the most chilling examples of procedural finality being used as a weapon. The public deserves better. Ellen’s family deserves the truth.  And this episode holds nothing back. #EllenGreenberg #JusticeForEllenGreenberg #EllenGreenbergCase #BobMotta #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #TruthNotClosure #ForensicReviewFail #SystemProtectsItself #TrueCrimeAnalysis Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Ellen Greenberg: The 2025 Report That Protects Power, Not Truth

Ellen Greenberg: The 2025 Report That Protects Power, Not Truth

The name Ellen Greenberg has come to represent something larger than a single case — it’s now a symbol of what happens when systems prioritize self-protection over truth. In 2025, the Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office released a highly anticipated “independent review” of Ellen’s death — only to double down on the original ruling of suicide. Despite 23 wounds, unanswered questions, and growing national outrage, the system closed ranks once again. In this episode, criminal defense attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole to unpack why this report has so many legal experts — and the public — demanding accountability. Together, they break down how the language of “reasonable certainty” shields agencies from scrutiny, why internal reviews rarely lead to justice, and how Ellen’s case reflects a larger failure in forensic oversight. This isn’t just about one ruling.  This is about how easy it is to rewrite reality when no one wants to face the cost of being wrong. If you’ve followed the Ellen Greenberg case, this conversation gives voice to everything the report tried to quiet. And if you haven’t? This is where you need to start. #EllenGreenberg #JusticeForEllenGreenberg #EllenGreenbergCase #HiddenKillers #BobMotta  #TonyBrueski #ForensicFailure #InstitutionalCoverup #TrueCrimePodcast #SystemicFailure Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
