Summary

The death of Ellen Greenberg has haunted Philadelphia for over a decade—but now, a new 2025 “independent” review by the same Medical Examiner’s Office that once ruled her death a homicide, then reversed itself, has reignited public outrage.

In this episode, we break down the new 32-page report by Dr. Lindsay Simon—billed as a “fresh look”—and expose just how deeply embedded bias and institutional self-preservation appear to be in its findings. From selective evidence interpretation to implausible forensic leaps, the review paints a troubling picture of a system investigating itself and calling it justice.

We dissect the major red flags:
 • The knife in her chest, 20+ stab wounds—some in the back—and a locked apartment
 • Claims of “no signs of struggle,” despite over 30 bruises on Ellen’s body
 • The “spinal cord artifact” explanation that dismisses incapacitation
 • Psychological characterizations based on anxiety—not suicidal ideation
 • How this report dismisses experts, overlooks key inconsistencies, and leans on confirmation bias

Is this truly an objective review? Or is it a bureaucratic performance designed to close the book and shield the city from liability? We’re unpacking every flaw, contradiction, and narrative sleight-of-hand in a case that refuses to stay silent.

There are some stories that hauntus city because they never really end.

Ellen Greenberg is one of them.

0:15.2

For 14 years, the end of her life has hovered over Philadelphia like a storm cloud that just won't move.

0:23.7

20 stab wounds. A locked apartment door. And I put that in giant air quotes.

0:30.2

A beautiful young teacher with no history of violence or psychosis found with a knife in her chest declared a suicide.

0:40.4

Not to mention 20 other stab wounds.

0:46.2

Looks like there was other bruising at different stages of healing. You know, things that you don't want to look at and go, hmm, is there more to this story? Nah. In Philadelphia, we don't look at those

0:52.6

sort of things, especially when your uncle's a high-powered attorney, and this could look really, really bad.

So let's take all of her digital devices after she commits suicide, because you need them for the funeral, right?

1:05.7

Oh, yes, all that happens to.

1:08.4

Now in 2025, we have what's being billed as a fresh look. It's really a bunch of

bullshit packaged to say a fresh look. As we've learned this week, a brand new supposedly

independent review by Dr. Lindsay Simon. Oh, she's got her stuff together, doesn't she?

The chief medical examiner of Philadelphia,

who also believes that someone stabbing themselves 20 times independently

1:33.4

with bruises in various stages of healing.

1:37.6

And no investigation, and a man who has no evidence that he broke down a door other than claiming he did

1:47.4

that was locked from the inside is right.

1:53.5

We should just believe the story, right, Lindsay, Simon?
