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

Mental Health Misused, Evidence Destroyed, Questions Ignored | Ellen Greenberg Deep Dive Ellen Greenberg was found with 20 stab wounds — including 10 in the back of her neck. And yet, her death was ruled a suicide. How? And more importantly — why? In this deeply psychological and emotionally charged episode of Hidden Killers Live, host Tony Brueski is joined by psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to unpack not just the facts of the case, but the emotional truth that’s been obscured for over a decade. We start with Ellen’s mental state — not just in the days before her death, but over the months of quiet withdrawal that went ignored or misinterpreted. She stopped wearing her engagement ring. She told her parents she wanted to come home. And yet, no one — not friends, not authorities — ever seemed to ask what she might have been retreating from. Then we turn to the psychiatric timeline. Ellen had three sessions with a psychiatrist. No history of suicide attempts. No diagnosed depression. No recorded ideation. And yet that paper-thin narrative — “she was anxious” — became the foundation for an official suicide ruling. We also confront what happened after her death — the reversal from homicide to suicide, the cleaned crime scene, the missing chain of custody, and the devices removed by her fiancé’s uncle before detectives could investigate. Her fiancé, Sam Goldberg, never pushed back on the suicide narrative. In fact, he reportedly said, “Do you think I killed her?” This case isn’t just forensic failure. It’s emotional sabotage, institutional betrayal, and a test of whether truth still matters when it's inconvenient. This episode doesn’t just question the ruling — it questions the people who accepted it. 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. 🧵 Hashtags #EllenGreenberg #HiddenKillersLive #ShavaunScott #MentalHealth #CrimeSceneFailure #JusticeForEllen #SuicideOrHomicide #DeathInApartment603 #TrueCrimePsychology #InstitutionalBetrayal Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

20 Stab Wounds, a Cleaned Crime Scene, and No Charges: What Really Happened to Ellen Greenberg? She was 27. A teacher. Engaged. Found with 20 stab wounds — 10 to the back of her neck — and a knife lodged in her chest. This is the case of Ellen Greenberg, and what’s coming to light now in the Hulu docuseries Death in Apartment 603 is nothing short of staggering. In this segment of Hidden Killers Live, we take you through the most disturbing parts of this case: the 911 call that framed Ellen’s death as a suicide before CPR even began, the crime scene that was cleaned before detectives could investigate, the devices removed from the apartment by her fiancé’s uncle, and the original homicide ruling that quietly got reversed with no new evidence. You’ll hear how Sam Goldberg, her fiancé, was seen pacing the hallway, agitated and shouting. How the scene was described as “serene” by the property manager — like someone had cleaned up before investigators ever got there. And how professional hazmat crews ran the dishwasher and wiped everything down before detectives returned to what was, at one point, being treated as a suspicious death. We also dig into Sam’s strange postmortem behavior. The texts. The conversations. The chilling lack of questions. And the now-infamous moment where he reportedly asked, “Do you think I killed her?” This isn’t just a bad investigation. This is what it looks like when a system decides to stop asking questions — even when the answers are bleeding from every angle of the scene. Was it a cover-up? Or the most catastrophic series of investigative failures we’ve seen in recent memory? Watch the segment. Hear the audio. Follow the timeline.  And then ask yourself — if this isn’t murder, what is? 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. 🧵 Hashtags #EllenGreenberg #DeathInApartment603 #CrimeSceneCoverup #TrueCrime #HiddenKillersLive #JusticeForEllen #911Call #SamGoldberg #ForensicFailure #ColdCase Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

“Do You Think I Killed Her?” Sam Goldberg’s Haunting Words About Ellen Greenberg What happens when the system doesn’t just fail you — it rewrites the story entirely? In this emotionally raw and deeply insightful episode of Hidden Killers Live, host Tony Brueski is joined by psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to discuss the most disturbing layer of the Ellen Greenberg case: the aftermath. After Ellen was found with 20 stab wounds — including 10 to the back of her neck — the medical examiner originally ruled her death a homicide. But that ruling was quietly reversed after a meeting with police. No new evidence. No second autopsy. Just a narrative pivot that reshaped everything. And because it was ruled a suicide, the apartment wasn’t preserved. It was cleaned. Her devices were removed by her fiancé’s uncle. Chain of custody was destroyed. Crime scene photos were incomplete. And the investigation? Essentially shut down. In this segment, we explore the psychological impact of institutional betrayal — not just on Ellen’s family, but on every family forced to accept a story that doesn’t make sense. We also dig into: Why families are often shamed into silence when they challenge suicide rulings What it means when someone close to the victim — like a fiancé — shows no visible grief or curiosity How mental health labels like “anxious” are weaponized to close cases And whether emotional closure is still possible when legal justice never comes Ellen Greenberg’s case isn’t just a forensic failure — it’s a psychological one. And if this is what happens when families ask questions, what does that say about how we treat grief, truth, and the dead? 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. 🧵 Hashtags #EllenGreenberg #HiddenKillersLive #ShavaunScott #DeathInApartment603 #InstitutionalFailure #CrimeSceneCoverup #JusticeForEllen #MentalHealth #GriefPsychology #TrueCrimeCommunity Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

From Teacher to Tragedy: Breaking Down Ellen Greenberg’s Mental State | Psych Expert Weighs In Was Ellen Greenberg’s death the result of a private mental health spiral — or a sign of something far more sinister?  In this deeply psychological episode of Hidden Killers Live, we’re joined by psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to explore the emotional and behavioral profile of Ellen Greenberg as portrayed in the new Hulu documentary Death in Apartment 603. We begin not with the crime scene — but with the person. Ellen was a 27-year-old first-grade teacher, beloved by her students and deeply connected to her family and friends. She was newly engaged. Planning a wedding. Dreaming of a family. So how did we go from that… to 20 stab wounds and a suicide ruling? In this episode, we walk through three major psychological layers of the case: 🔹 Ellen’s emotional withdrawal — When she started pulling back from friends and stopped wearing her engagement ring, was it anxiety, relationship strain… or something more dangerous? 🔹 The medical record — Ellen had seen a psychiatrist three times and was prescribed Klonopin and Ambien. But she never disclosed suicidal thoughts. In fact, her doctor noted that she smiled when talking about her fiancé. So how did that turn into the primary justification for a suicide ruling? 🔹 The body tells a different story — Ellen had 20 stab wounds, including 10 to the back of her neck, and bruises in various stages of healing. We ask: what does that kind of physical trauma suggest psychologically — especially in a case with no note, no history of self-harm, and no pattern of detachment? Together with Shavaun, we try to answer one central question: Does this case look anything like suicide — or have we all been forced to believe something that simply doesn’t make psychological sense? 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. 🧵 Hashtags #EllenGreenberg #PsychologicalAnalysis #HiddenKillersLive #DeathInApartment603 #ShavaunScott #TrueCrime #MentalHealth #SuicideOrHomicide #JusticeForEllen #TrueCrimePsychology Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

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. 🧵 Hashtags #EllenGreenberg #CrimeSceneCoverup #TrueCrime #HiddenKillersLive #JusticeForEllen #CrimeSceneFailure #HuluDoc #HomicideInvestigation #DigitalEvidence #ChainOfCustody Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Ellen Greenberg Didn’t Kill Herself — And This Hulu Doc Proves It She was 27. A beloved teacher. Engaged. Planning a future. And then, she was found on the kitchen floor with 20 stab wounds — including 10 in her back and neck — and a knife buried in her chest. The official ruling? Suicide. Now, more than a decade later, the new Hulu docuseries Death in Apartment 603 is turning that narrative inside out. And in this episode of Hidden Killers Live, we’re breaking down exactly what it reveals — and why this case is unraveling in real time. The evidence? It’s brutal, graphic, and impossible to ignore. We’ve got a 911 call where the fiancé preemptively blames Ellen before attempting CPR. A crime scene that was released and professionally cleaned within hours. Devices removed by a politically connected family member. And a death that was originally ruled a homicide by the medical examiner — until police pressured it into becoming a suicide. This isn’t just about what happened in that apartment. It’s about what happened after — how institutions failed, how truth got rewritten, and how a grieving family has spent 14 years screaming into a system that refused to listen. In this segment, we’re not just reacting to the doc — we’re pulling the threads that were buried for years. We’re laying out the timeline, the autopsy contradictions, the mental health manipulation, and the bureaucratic blindfold that kept this case from ever being investigated as the homicide it clearly appeared to be. If you’ve followed the Ellen Greenberg case, this will make your blood boil. If you haven’t — it’s time you see what everyone’s been trying to hide. This is what it looks like when the evidence screams… and no one listens. 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. 🧵 Hashtags #EllenGreenberg #DeathInApartment603 #TrueCrime #JusticeForEllen #CrimeSceneFailure #HuluDocumentary #HiddenKillersLive #ColdCase #911CallAnalysis #HomicideOrSuicide Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This Changes Everything: What the Ellen Greenberg Doc Just Revealed & What's Next? This case was buried under paperwork, silence, and a suicide label. Until now. In this revealing episode of Hidden Killers Live, host Tony Brueski sits down with psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to explore what the Hulu documentary Death in Apartment 603 has exposed — and what the psychological profile of Ellen Greenberg actually tells us. Ellen was found with 20 stab wounds, including 10 to the back of her neck, and no history of self-harm, suicidal thoughts, or major depression. The documentary lays bare what had been kept in the shadows for years — and now, Shavaun helps us walk through the emotional truth behind the evidence. We dig into what this story reveals about: Ellen’s emotional withdrawal: Why she suddenly pulled back from her life — and what she may have been signaling The clinical record: Three sessions with a psychiatrist. No ideation. A future she was planning. So how did “anxiety” get weaponized as the reason she’s gone? The crime scene: Cleaned within 24 hours. Devices taken before police could retrieve them. A homicide ruling reversed without new evidence. And then we get to the deeper trauma:  What happens to a family when the official story doesn’t just feel wrong — it is wrong? What happens when the institutions you’re supposed to trust look you in the eye and say, “Move on”? This segment doesn’t just revisit the case — it reveals why the public was misled, how a suicide narrative was institutionalized, and what it actually takes to dismantle that lie after more than a decade of damage. Watch this episode and ask yourself — what else have we been told to accept that never made psychological sense in the first place? 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. 🧵 Hashtags #EllenGreenberg #HiddenKillersLive #ShavaunScott #HuluDoc #DeathInApartment603 #JusticeForEllen #PsychologicalAnalysis #TrueCrimeRevealed #SuicideOrHomicide #InstitutionalFailure Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Will Anyone Ever Be Charged in the Death of Ellen Greenberg? 20 stab wounds. A knife in her chest. Bruises in various stages of healing. The official ruling? Suicide.   Now, 14 years later, with a new Hulu documentary (Death in Apartment 603) and a court-ordered review underway, the question that refuses to go away is this: Will anyone ever be held accountable for Ellen Greenberg’s death? In this special longform commentary, we cut through the noise and walk through the most disturbing, undeniable facts of this case—the forensic findings, investigative failures, and shifting stories that have led many to believe there’s been a cover-up from the very beginning. Why did the medical examiner reverse a homicide ruling under police pressure? Why was the crime scene released for cleaning before a full forensic sweep? And why does Ellen’s death certificate still say suicide, when even the original pathologist now says it shouldn’t? We also ask the harder question: What’s stopping prosecutors from filing charges, or even opening a formal investigation? From chain-of-custody issues with Ellen’s electronics to conflicting elevator surveillance and 911 call timelines, this case isn’t lacking in evidence—it’s been drowning in it. What it’s lacked is the institutional will to follow it. With the public demanding answers, Ellen’s parents fighting through the courts, and the Hulu series putting the spotlight back where it belongs, we’re at a pivotal moment. Will this be the turning point? Or will the system once again find a way to look away? Justice delayed doesn’t have to be justice denied. But it will be—if no one acts. 🧵 Hashtags #EllenGreenberg #JusticeForEllen #TrueCrime #ColdCase #WrongfulDeath #Unsolved #ForensicFiles #CrimeSceneInvestigation #HuluDocumentary #AccountabilityNow Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
