    Ellen Greenberg May Finally Get Justice With New Depositions & Discovery

    Ellen Greenberg May Finally Get Justice With New Depositions & Discovery

    In the podcast "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," Tony is joined by former Felony Prosecutor and attorney Eric Faddis to discuss the mysterious and controversial case of Ellen Greenberg. Ellen, who was found dead with 20 stab wounds, had her death initially ruled as a suicide, a conclusion that baffles anyone familiar with the details of the case. The conversation dives into the recent developments that have allowed Ellen's family to push for further investigation. The family's persistent efforts have led to a breakthrough where the former district attorney, Guy D'Andrea, suggested that Ellen's death was a homicide, not a suicide, based on forensic evidence. This has opened the door for discovery and depositions that could reshape the understanding of the case and potentially lead to it being reclassified as a homicide.

    **Main Points Discussed:**
    - **Dubious Suicide Ruling:** The implausibility of Ellen stabbing herself 20 times, including post-mortem wounds, casts serious doubts on the suicide ruling.
    - **Judicial Progress:** The courts have now allowed Ellen Greenberg's family to proceed with discovery and question key figures like former district attorney Guy D'Andrea under oath about the original investigation.
    - **Impact of Reclassification:** Discusses how reclassifying Ellen's death as homicide could significantly impact the investigation, prompting authorities to actively pursue it as a criminal case.
    - **Public and Legal Pressure:** The case's high profile might drive the investigative authorities to delve deeper due to public outcry and the need for resolution.
    - **Challenges of Cold Cases:** The inherent difficulties in reopening a case many years after the fact, which can significantly slow down the process.

    How Did Ellen Greenberg's Impossible 'Suicide' Never Get Investigated As Murder?

    How Did Ellen Greenberg's Impossible 'Suicide' Never Get Investigated As Murder?

    In this episode of 'Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski,' psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott discusses the perplexing case of Ellen Greenberg, who died from what was initially ruled a suicide but involved circumstances so bizarre that they beggar belief. Ellen, a beloved teacher, was allegedly found to have stabbed herself 20 times, with some wounds inflicted post-mortem. Shavaun critiques the implausibility of the suicide ruling and delves into the troubling aspects of the investigation, including the swift change from homicide to suicide influenced by high-powered decisions. The conversation explores potential oversights and errors in the investigation, including the behavior of Ellen’s ex-fiancé and the handling of the crime scene by authorities. The podcast touches on the ongoing struggle of Ellen's family to reclassify her death as a homicide and the broader implications of justice and investigative integrity in such disturbing cases.

     **Main Points of the Conversation:**
       - **Bizarre Case Details:** Ellen Greenberg was found dead with 20 stab wounds in a case initially ruled as suicide, despite the implausible nature of the injuries.
       - **Investigation Flaws:** The quick reclassification of the case from homicide to suicide raised concerns about the influence of external pressures and potential mishandling by authorities.
       - **Ex-Fiancé’s Role:** The behavior and actions of Ellen’s ex-fiancé during and after her death were questioned, particularly his immediate assumption and statement that Ellen had stabbed herself.
       - **Family’s Fight for Justice:** Ellen’s family has been actively working to have her death reclassified as a homicide to ensure a thorough investigation into what they believe to be her murder.
       - **Legal and Psychological Implications:** Discussion on the need for a psychological autopsy and reevaluation of the evidence, considering there was no apparent motive or mental health history that would support the suicide ruling.

    Witness to Testify Medical Examiner Initially Ruled Ellen Greenberg’s Death a Homicide

    Witness to Testify Medical Examiner Initially Ruled Ellen Greenberg’s Death a Homicide

    In a recent court hearing, shocking new details emerged in the long-contested death of Ellen Greenberg, whose demise in 2011 has haunted her family and baffled authorities. According to Joseph Podraza, attorney for Greenberg's parents, a key witness is prepared to testify that Ellen’s death was initially ruled a homicide by the then-Philadelphia medical examiner, Dr. Samuel Gulino.

    During the motion hearing before Judge Linda Carpenter in the Philadelphia Common Pleas Court, Podraza disclosed that former assistant district attorney Guy D’Andrea is set to give critical testimony regarding the original investigation. D’Andrea reportedly had firsthand access to the investigation file which was largely neglected in a District Attorney’s office closet after Ellen's death was controversially deemed a suicide.

    “Dr. (Samuel) Gulino told D’Andrea, ‘this is a homicide,’” Podraza asserted, adding that Gulino also believed Ellen's body had been moved post-mortem. This information shocked Ellen’s mother, Sandee Greenberg, who was watching the proceedings via Zoom. "That’s the first I’ve heard of it," she remarked to PennLive. "Her death is obviously a murder."

    The case of Ellen Greenberg has puzzled many since that snowy January evening when the 27-year-old school teacher was found lifeless in her locked apartment in Manayunk, with 20 stab wounds. Her fiancé, Samuel Goldberg, discovered her body slumped against a kitchen cabinet—a scene initially misinterpreted by Philadelphia detectives as a suicide.

    The legal battle to reclassify Ellen’s death as a homicide has been strenuous and costly for her parents, Joshua and Sandee Greenberg, who have spent over half a million dollars in their 13-year fight. The ongoing civil lawsuit accuses Philadelphia detectives, medical examiner officials, and assistant district attorneys of conspiring to cover up the true nature of Ellen’s death.

    Judge Carpenter has allowed the Greenbergs' motion to depose D’Andrea under oath, albeit with a four-hour limit on the session and confined to his knowledge of the death investigation file and his discussions about the case. The deposition could be pivotal in the Greenbergs’ efforts to challenge a potential summary judgment motion seeking to dismiss their suit.

    Ellen’s case has drawn significant public and media attention, partly due to inconsistencies and questions surrounding the initial handling of her death scene and subsequent investigation. The apartment was never sealed as a crime scene and was cleaned before a thorough investigation could occur, severely hampering the collection of evidence.

    As the Greenbergs await further court proceedings, they also hope for the Pennsylvania Supreme Court to entertain their appeal to officially change the manner of Ellen’s death from suicide to homicide. Such a ruling could potentially reopen the police investigation into the mysterious circumstances surrounding Ellen Greenberg’s tragic death.

    The forthcoming depositions and continued legal proceedings aim to uncover the truth and provide closure for a grieving family that has long sought justice for Ellen.

Interesting, but hard to listen to.

The content is interesting, but the constant mic noise and tapping is so distracting. You have to be able to tell your guests beforehand that they can’t do that.

Too much extra noise

I was interested in listening, and I really tried, but there was so much excessive audio noise that I had to stop listening. Please please can you clean up the audio?
