From Suicide to Homicide, Ellen Greenberg's Case Challenges Systemic Failures

Aug 06, 03:00 PM

In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," former felony prosecutor and attorney Eric Faddis discusses the ongoing legal battle surrounding the death of Ellen Greenberg. Despite being found with 20 stab wounds, including some post-mortem, her death was ruled a suicide without a thorough investigation. The 911 call and the condition of the door further complicate the case. The Greenberg family has been fighting for years to have her death re-examined, and the Pennsylvania Supreme Court is now set to decide if the case can be reopened. Faddis and Brueski delve into the challenges of investigating a case years after the fact, the impact of insufficient initial investigations, and the difficulty of seeking justice with limited evidence. They also discuss the broader implications for the criminal justice system and the potential for reform that could help other families in similar situations.
