Welcome to True Crime Brewery.

I'm Jill.

And I'm Dick.

It was during a snowstorm on a snow day, actually, in Philadelphia.

When a young teacher was found dead in her apartment

under some very bizarre circumstances. Her name was Ellen Greenberg. She was just 27 years old.

She was engaged and she lived with her fiancee. Ellen's fiance called 911. And almost right

away, investigators said they knew what happened. But then the

story changed, and then it would change again. So join us today as we talk about what should have been

a straightforward investigation that over time turned into something far more complicated. For years now,

Ellen's parents have been asking the same thing.

Everyone else eventually starts asking when they look closely at this case. Does any of this make

sense? We're starting with who Ellen was and who the people in her life were. What is known about

the day she died and what has never been adequately explained,

because more than a decade later, the core question is still hanging in the air. What really happened

to Ellen Greenberg? And of course, we'll have a beer as we talk. Yeah, we have a nice Pennsylvania beer

from Wirebocker Brewing Company. It's double Simco

IPA. Simco is the hops used in this, and they generally give you a fruity impression, grapefruit.

So this is a nice looking beer, copper color, fairly thick head, some lace, very citrusy aroma.
