Ellen Greenberg Case: The Most Botched Crime Scene Cover-Up You’ve Never Heard Of

Ellen Greenberg Case: The Most Botched Crime Scene Cover-Up You’ve Never Heard Of

Ellen Greenberg Case: The Most Botched Crime Scene Cover-Up You’ve Never Heard Of

What if the crime scene was already erased… before police ever began investigating?

In this segment of Hidden Killers Live, we dig deep into the moments that should have triggered a full-blown homicide investigation in the death of Ellen Greenberg — but instead, signaled something very different: silence, shortcuts, and possibly, cover-up.

We examine Sam Goldberg’s behavior, as witnessed by a building staffer who saw him pacing the hallway, visibly agitated, shouting that he was going to "knock the f---ing door down." And then, we look at what happened after Ellen was pronounced dead — when the police labeled it suicide on scene, and the apartment was released, not preserved.

By the very next day, professional crime scene cleaners were scrubbing the apartment. Items were moved. Dishes were run through the dishwasher. And then, a man who wasn’t even related to Ellen — her fiancé’s uncle — was allowed inside to remove her electronic devices, including laptops and phones, before any forensic work was done. That uncle? A politically connected Philadelphia attorney.

From there, it only gets more troubling:
• Devices were returned days later, with no clear chain of custody.
• The original homicide ruling by the medical examiner was reversed — without new forensic evidence.
• Police later cited mental health issues, based on statements from the same person who discovered her.

And years later? That same person reportedly never questioned the suicide ruling and told others, “That’s just what it was.”

This isn’t just bad policing. This is what it looks like when a homicide becomes a narrative control exercise. And the closer you look, the worse it gets.

Was this a cover-up? Or was it a case of every system doing the wrong thing at the worst possible time?

Let’s break it down.

Sam Goldberg, Ellen Greenberg’s fiancé at the time of her death, has never been charged with any crime in connection to this case. He has consistently maintained that Ellen’s death was a suicide. All individuals mentioned in this segment are presumed innocent unless proven otherwise.

Ellen Greenberg Murder Explored Through the Eyes of Ret FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke

Ellen Greenberg Murder Explored Through the Eyes of Ret FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke

Was Ellen Greenberg’s death really a suicide, or are we looking at a case that defies all logic? Fourteen years after her death was ruled a suicide—despite twenty-two stab wounds, some inflicted after she was already dead—the very medical examiner who made that call has walked it back. Now, it’s “something other than suicide.” No kidding. But how did we get here? Why did investigators seemingly bend over backward to ignore every glaring red flag in this case? Retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke joins to break down the patterns—of behavior, of investigative missteps, and maybe even of influence. Is this just a case of incompetence, or was someone actively steering this case away from the truth? #EllenGreenberg #TrueCrime #FBIAnalysis #HiddenKillers #UnsolvedMystery #JusticeForEllen #DarkTruths Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Breaking Down The Ellen Greenberg 911 Call With Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott

Breaking Down The Ellen Greenberg 911 Call With Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott What kind of person walks into a room, finds their fiancée dead, and immediately blurts out, "She must have stabbed herself"? That’s the unsettling question at the heart of this bizarre 911 call. The distress is there, sure—but so are some oddly specific assumptions that don’t quite add up. Tony Brueski and psychotherapist Shavaun Scott dissect this chilling call, where panic meets peculiar certainty. Why is the caller so quick to offer explanations before even assessing the scene? Could it just be shock, or something more calculated? And what’s with the strangely placed humor? As investigators sift through the details, we’re left wondering: Is this an innocent man in distress or a guilty conscience slipping up in real-time? #TrueCrime #911Call #MysteriousDeath #HiddenKillers #CrimeInvestigation #SuspiciousBehavior #ShavaunScott Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Will Anyone Ever Be Charged For The Murder Of Ellen Greenberg?

Will Anyone Ever Be Charged For The Murder Of Ellen Greenberg?

Will Anyone Ever Be Charged For The Murder Of Ellen Greenberg? How does a woman stab herself 20 times—including post-mortem—and call it suicide? That's the million-dollar question in the baffling case of Ellen Greenberg. After 14 years of her parents refusing to back down, the case has finally cracked open with a major revelation: a medical examiner has walked back their ruling. But why now? And more importantly, why was it changed in the first place? Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer joins to break down the disturbing inconsistencies, from a shady meeting that allegedly led to the ruling flip-flop, to a crime scene that was scrubbed clean before investigators could take a proper look. Add in a fiancé who allegedly called in his ethics-judge uncle to grab all of Ellen’s digital devices, and you’ve got a case that reeks of something far more sinister than suicide. Now that the investigation has been reopened, will Ellen finally get justice? Or is this just another chapter in a cover-up that refuses to be exposed? #EllenGreenberg #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #JusticeForEllen #CrimeSceneCleanup #CoverUp #UnsolvedMystery Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Ellen Greenberg Didn't Kill Herself, So WHAT Happened?

Ellen Greenberg Didn't Kill Herself, So WHAT Happened?

Ellen Greenberg Didn't Kill Herself, So WHAT Happened? Could a person really stab themselves 20 times, including post-mortem wounds, and call it suicide? That’s the mind-bending official ruling in the case of Ellen Greenberg—a 27-year-old teacher from Philly who was found dead in her apartment in 2011. A decade later, the bizarre inconsistencies and shocking twists continue to pile up. Despite overwhelming evidence that defies logic, Ellen’s death was labeled a suicide—after initially being ruled a homicide. Now, the medical examiner is backpedaling again, saying it was “something other than suicide,” but stopping short of calling it murder. So, what exactly does that leave? Death by spontaneous self-inflicted zombie wounds? Shavaun Scott, psychotherapist and author, joins Tony Brueski to break down the emotional and psychological toll this nightmare has taken on Ellen’s family, who have been fighting tooth and nail for the truth. And with evidence tampered with, a crime scene scrubbed clean, and zero proper investigative procedures followed, the bigger question remains—who wanted this case buried so badly? And maybe the most disturbing part—why does it seem like everyone outside of Ellen’s family just wanted people to look the other way? #EllenGreenberg #TrueCrime #JusticeForEllen #CrimeCoverUp #UnsolvedMystery #HomicideInvestigation #HiddenKillers Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Josh Shapiro Continues To Lie About Evidence In Ellen Greenberg Case

Josh Shapiro Continues To Lie About Evidence In Ellen Greenberg Case

Josh Shapiro Continues To Lie About Evidence In Ellen Greenberg Case How does a case like this get shoved onto a dusty shelf—literally under Christmas decorations—and left to rot? That’s the question haunting the investigation into the alleged suicide of Ellen Greenberg. With multiple medical examiners now questioning the original ruling, one has to wonder: did anyone actually investigate this case, or did they just shuffle paperwork and hope no one would notice? Tony Brueski and retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer break down the baffling inconsistencies, from bruises and hemorrhages that scream foul play to the mind-boggling idea that someone could stab themselves repeatedly—then decide to switch knives. And let’s not forget the ever-changing position of the body at the scene. With officials dodging responsibility like it’s an Olympic sport, the real question remains: will this case finally get the justice it deserves, or will it be buried under another pile of seasonal décor? #EllenGreenberg #TrueCrime #UnsolvedMystery #JusticeForEllen #CrimeScene #MedicalExaminer #HiddenKillers Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
