This is a true crime in real-time update from True Crime Today and the Hidden Killers podcast.

For 13 years, the Philadelphia Medical Examiner's Office stood firm on a ruling that defied

common sense, basic forensic science, and, frankly, human decency.

Ellen Greenberg, a bright young school teacher, was found stabbed 20 times in her locked apartment,

with multiple wounds to the back of her neck. And yet somehow, we were all expected to believe this

was suicide. It was a story that never held up, a conclusion that was mathematically,

physically, and logically impossible.

And now, after more than a decade of relentless effort by her parents, independent forensic experts,

and journalists who refused to let this case be buried, the wall of lies is finally beginning to crumble.

Dr. Marlon Osborne, the very medical examiner who signed off on Ellen's suicide

ruling, has now reversed course. He has finally admitted what the Greenberg family and every

sane person looking at this case have known from day one. Ellen Greenberg's death should not

have been classified as a suicide. In a sworn statement, he now claims that the manner of

death should be something other than suicide. That's a deliberately vague way of saying,

yeah, we got it wrong, and now we're in deep. This isn't just a minor revision. This is an

earthquake. When the very institution responsible for ruling out foul play

suddenly backtracks after years of legal battles, it means only one thing. The truth is no

longer containable. The city of Philadelphia is now in a position where they must answer for

this gross miscarriage of justice, and the entire medical examiner's office and police department

have a lot of explaining to do.

Let's be clear.

This was never a real investigation.
