Philadelphia’s Criminal Injustice System Ruling: Woman with 20 stab wounds, 10 to the back of the head and neck, plus several beating bruises officially called suicide.

On January 26 2011, Ellen Greenberg was found dead on the kitchen floor inside the two-bedroom apartment she shared with her fiancé Sam Goldberg in Philadelphi

The stabbing death of 27-year-old schoolteacher Ellen Greenberg has been ruled as a suicide by the city of Philadelphia once again – marking a huge blow to her family’s 14-year fight for answers.

Greenberg was found dead on January 26, 2011, inside the sixth-floor apartment she shared with her fiancé Sam Goldberg in the safe neighborhood of Manayunk, Philadelphia.

She had been stabbed 20 times, including 10 times to the back of the neck and head, and her body was covered in bruises in various stages of healing. A 10-inch kitchen knife was sticking out of her chest.

Despite the extent and nature of her wounds, the Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office ruled her death a suicide.

It’s a ruling Greenberg’s parents Sandee and Josh have never believed.

For the past 14 years, they have thrown everything into legal battles and hiring investigators, experts and pathologists who have cast doubts on the official account from the city.

Multiple independent experts have uncovered damning evidence they say contradicts the suicide ruling: including evidence that someone moved her body, that one of the knife wounds appears to have been inflicted post-mortem, and that the discovery of her body did not take place the way officials said.

And, in February, the pathologist who carried out Greenberg’s autopsy made a spectacular U-turn, admitting he now believes he was wrong and that Greenberg did not kill herself.

Now, in a bombshell 32-page review, obtained by the Daily Mail, Philadelphia’s Chief Medical Examiner Lindsay Simon announced she is standing by the city’s controversial ruling.
