The Murder Of Ellen Greenberg A Conversation With Family's PI Thomas Brennan Part 5

The Murder Of Ellen Greenberg A Conversation With Family's PI Thomas Brennan Part 5

In a compelling five-episode series, Tony Brueski delves into the mysterious death of Ellen Greenberg with Thomas Brennan, the private investigator hired by Greenberg's parents. This gripping podcast reveals fresh insights into a case that has baffled many, as overwhelming evidence suggests murder, yet the Philadelphia police continue to classify her death as a suicide.

Ellen Greenberg, a 27-year-old teacher, was found bloodied and lifeless on the kitchen floor of her Philadelphia apartment on January 26, 2011. Her body bore 20 stab wounds: ten to the back of her head and neck, and ten to her abdomen, stomach, and chest. The gruesome discovery was made by her fiancé, Sam Goldberg, who reported that he had to force entry into the apartment when he couldn’t get in. His frantic call to 911, later released by the police, captures the panic of the moment as he was instructed not to perform CPR due to the knife still lodged in her chest.

The case took a controversial turn when an assistant Philadelphia medical examiner initially ruled Greenberg's death a homicide, only to later change the classification to suicide after consulting with police and prosecutors. This decision has been fiercely contested by Greenberg's family, who have never believed that Ellen took her own life.

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court recently announced it would examine whether the family has legal standing to challenge the medical report. This review is significant because the current classification of suicide on Ellen’s death certificate presents substantial barriers to seeking victim compensation, restitution, or pursuing wrongful death claims. The court's decision to take up this appeal, previously rejected by the Pennsylvania Commonwealth Court, underscores its importance as a "matter of statewide importance."

"The court will consider whether executors and administrators of an estate have standing to challenge an erroneous finding recorded on the decedent's death certificate," the announcement read. This could set a precedent that impacts not only the Greenberg family but other families facing similar legal hurdles.

Throughout the podcast series, Thomas Brennan provides a detailed analysis of the evidence, highlighting inconsistencies and questioning the physical plausibility of self-infliction of such severe wounds. His insights align with the opinions of various medical experts who have voiced doubts about the suicide ruling.

"From the beginning, there were red flags that were ignored or dismissed," Brennan states in the podcast. "The nature and number of Ellen's wounds raise serious questions about the initial findings."

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court's involvement brings renewed hope that the official stance on Ellen’s death might finally change. With the family’s relentless pursuit of justice, there is optimism that Ellen Greenberg’s case will receive the thorough re-evaluation it deserves. The outcome of the court's review could pave the way for new investigations and potentially, a reclassification of her death, which would open avenues for legal actions and victim compensation previously unavailable to the Greenberg family.

18: How Ellen Greenberg's 'Active Investigation' Wasn't Active At All

18: How Ellen Greenberg's 'Active Investigation' Wasn't Active At All

In the latest episode of the "Hidden Killers" podcast with Tony Brueski, the perplexing case of Ellen Greenberg once again takes the spotlight. The topic raises a fundamental question: What does it take to find justice when authorities insist on labeling a gruesome crime as suicide? Despite Ellen being stabbed 20 times, with half of those wounds in her back and head, there has been no homicide investigation. Instead, evidence crucial to solving the mystery lies untouched in a Philadelphia evidence locker, including an unexamined weapon and digital devices.    Enter Neama Rahmani, a former federal prosecutor, who joins the discussion to unravel the complexities of this disturbing case. The focal point of the conversation revolves around a civil case brought against the Philadelphia Police Department for their perceived lack of action in what many suspect to be a cover-up. However, a pertinent question arises: Can the findings from this civil case potentially lead to a legitimate criminal investigation?    Tony Brueski wonders whether the evidence unearthed during the civil trial, which is currently in the discovery phase, might provide the much-needed breakthrough. Could it reveal fingerprints or other crucial details that have languished unexamined for far too long? Rahmani, with his legal expertise, believes otherwise. He highlights a fundamental challenge – law enforcement, and prosecutors generally have immunity in these types of cases, and members of the public can't compel them to act.    This fact underscores a broader public policy issue. While it may be perceived as unfair, it remains challenging to force authorities to reopen cases or launch investigations in the absence of an apparent duty to act. The justice system, as Rahmani explains, is designed in a way that grants considerable discretion to prosecutors and law enforcement agencies. This discretion can only be influenced by voting a prosecutor out of office, as seen in cases like Bill Cosby's, where a new prosecutor brought fresh perspective to long-standing matters.    Despite the frustration surrounding this case, the legal framework remains firmly rooted in prosecutorial discretion. Civil lawsuits may not prove effective in pushing authorities to act, as Rahmani argues. The hope for change lies in the hands of voters, who have the power to elect prosecutors who share their commitment to pursuing justice.    Moreover, the conversation touches on the misuse of the term "active investigation" by law enforcement agencies. The enigma of Ellen Greenberg's death continues to perplex, leaving many with the haunting question: Will the evidence ever see the light of day, potentially leading to answers and justice? The challenges ahead are substantial, but the determination of Ellen's parents remains unbroken. As they continue their fight for truth and accountability, the hope for change in how cases like this are handled endures, challenging the status quo of prosecutorial discretion and reminding us that justice should be relentless in its pursuit.

Will Pending Ellen Greenberg Civil Case Uncover Dark Truths About Coverup?

Will Pending Ellen Greenberg Civil Case Uncover Dark Truths About Coverup?

In the shadowy realm of unresolved mysteries, few cases beckon as profoundly as that of Ellen Greenberg. A riveting episode of the "Hidden Killers" podcast with Tony Brueski brought to light the baffling circumstances surrounding Ellen's tragic demise and the arduous quest for justice undertaken by her parents. The discussion raises pressing questions about the power dynamics that could be at play and the long-awaited possibility of revealing the truth.     The conversation kicks off with a thought-provoking query, "Are they protecting someone?" This question lingers like a cloud of suspicion over the entire case. As Defense Attorney and podcast host of "Defense Diaries," Bob Motta, contemplates, "When you look at that string of people connected, it could make, it does make a lot of sense. Is that what's happening?"      Ellen Greenberg's story is one of grim intrigue. Found dead with a shocking 20 stab wounds, half in her back and half in her head, the initial verdict of suicide by the Philadelphia Medical Examiner's Office has confounded experts and left many scratching their heads. As Bob Motta astutely observes, "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."      This case has been a quagmire of challenges from the very beginning, exacerbated by corruption within the Philadelphia legal and political spheres. The question that continues to haunt observers is whether Ellen's parents' quest for justice is merely a losing battle against a formidable system, determined to thwart their efforts at every turn.      The heart of the matter lies in the issue of legal standing. The lower court initially ruled that Ellen's parents lacked the legal standing to challenge the suicide ruling. Bob Motta elaborates, "They never even got to the argument because they just said, look, you don't have standing to bring the claim, you know, which legally they don't, but, you know, the law can change." As the podcast conversation delves deeper, the focus shifts to the potential avenues for justice. Bob Motta explains how the Greenberg family has filed a civil suit against specific law enforcement officials, prosecutors, and the medical examiner, alleging misconduct and conspiracy to cover up Ellen's murder.      This civil suit is more than just a pursuit of monetary damages; it serves as a beacon of hope for discovering the truth. It raises the intriguing possibility that revelations uncovered during the civil suit's discovery process could lead to a criminal investigation. The Greenberg family's pursuit of justice continues, leaving us with a final, haunting question: Will the truth ever see the light of day, or will Ellen's case remain a symbol of the challenges and mysteries that persist within our justice system?
