- π A new medical examiner has ruled Ellen Greenberg's 2011 death, initially ruled a homicide, as a suicide.
- π Ellen's parents, Josh and Sandee Greenberg, are devastated and reject this conclusion, calling it an "embarrassment" and an "insult."
Disputed Evidence and Expert Opinions
- π The new ME cited no signs of struggle, no defensive wounds, no DNA on the knife, and the apartment being locked from the inside as evidence for suicide.
- π£οΈ The Greenbergs and numerous forensic experts dispute these findings, pointing to bruises on Ellen's wrists and neck, suggesting strangulation and a struggle.
- πͺ Experts argue that women do not typically use knives for suicide, and the nature of the wounds, including those in the back and head, are biomechanically implausible for self-infliction.
Allegations of a Staged Crime Scene
- π The parents believe the crime scene was staged to support a suicide ruling.
- π©Έ They question the ME's findings regarding Ellen's position at death and the blood spatter patterns, which they claim contradict the fiance's account.
- π§ The ME's report is criticized for attempting to exonerate the fiance rather than conducting an independent investigation.
The Ongoing Quest for Justice
- βοΈ Despite the new ruling, the Greenbergs state that it has "not settled anything" for them and they will continue their pursuit of justice.
- β They believe the majority of experts who have reviewed the case do not agree with the suicide ruling, and the city of Philadelphia may be concerned about the ruling opening the case to further scrutiny.
- π The parents have consistently sought an unbiased investigation and remain committed to uncovering the truth about their daughter's death.
