The long-debated case of Ellen Greenberg is gaining renewed attention after a forensic expert hired by her family suggested that her 2011 death was staged to appear as a suicide. Dr. Wayne Ross, a forensic neuropathologist, told NewsNation’s Brian Entin that he believes Greenberg was strangled before being stabbed 20 times.

“To a reasonable degree of medical certainty, she was strangled,” Ross said. “Yeah, I would testify in the court of law.”

Greenberg, a 27-year-old teacher, was found dead in her Philadelphia apartment by her fiancé, Sam Goldberg. She had suffered 20 stab wounds, including 10 to the back of her neck. Initially, Philadelphia Medical Examiner Marlon Osbourne ruled her death a homicide, but that determination was later changed to suicide after police questioned the findings.

The family has long fought against the suicide ruling, believing crucial evidence was overlooked. One of the most concerning pieces of evidence, Ross pointed out, is a towel placed near Greenberg’s body that was clean despite the excessive amount of blood at the scene. He sees this as clear evidence that the scene may have been manipulated.

“There are also bruises on her wrists and legs that suggest a struggle, as well as conflicting blood splatter patterns,” Ross noted.

The case has drawn national scrutiny, with experts and the public questioning how a person could inflict such severe wounds on themselves. Recently, Osbourne, the medical examiner who first ruled Greenberg’s death a homicide, released a legal verification stating that he now believes the suicide ruling is inaccurate.

In a significant development, Greenberg’s family reached a settlement agreement with Philadelphia officials to reopen the investigation. The new inquiry offers a glimmer of hope for her parents, who have spent over a decade fighting for justice.

Her father, Josh Greenberg, has been vocal about his suspicions, stating that he believes his daughter was strangled before being stabbed.

The case has also placed scrutiny on Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, who was Philadelphia’s district attorney at the time of Greenberg’s death. Addressing the case, Shapiro defended the initial investigation.

With the case now reopened, forensic experts and investigators will have another opportunity to analyze the troubling evidence surrounding Greenberg’s death. Ross believes a deeper examination will reveal inconsistencies that support the family’s claim that she did not die by suicide.

As the investigation moves forward, Greenberg’s family remains committed to uncovering the truth about what happened that night in her apartment.
