Summary

In January of 2011, a 27-year-old elementary school teacher was discovered dead on her kitchen floor with over 20 stab wounds. Despite the fact that ten of the stab wounds were made from behind her, police ruled her death a suicide. But as of August 2022, the DA has reopened her case. This is the mysterious death of Ellen Greenberg.
