  • Greenberg Family Attorney on Getting Justice for Daughter Ellen

    #STSNation,


    Welcome to another episode of Surviving The Survivor, the podcast that brings you the #BestGuests in all of True Crime…


    It’s a special Sunday Night Live edition of #Karm on the Case.


    Ellen Greenberg was a 27-year-old first grade teacher at Juniata Park Academy in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.


    At approximately 6:40 p.m. on January 26, 2011, Ellen was pronounced dead as a result of twenty stab wounds, including ten to the back of her head and neck.


    In addition, there were eleven bruises in various stages of resolution on her right arm, abdomen, and right leg.


    Despite all the evidence to the contrary, the Medical Examiner, Dr. Marlon Osbourne, ruled her death a suicide.


    He later admitted that he had originally planned on ruling the manner of death either a homicide or undetermined, but changed it to suicide at the insistence of the police.


    Evidence shows that at least two of the 20 stab wounds were inflicted after Greenberg’s heart stopped beating suggesting she was attacked after she had already died.


    Lawyers for the Greenbergs are now hoping to get Ellen’s case re-reviewed by the Chester County District Attorney's Office.


    Greenberg's family has long sought to get her suicide ruling changed to homicide or undetermined.


    #BestGuest here to break this story down:


    Will Trask is an attorney for the Greenberg family.


    Will is an associate in Lamb McErlane’s litigation group, working out of the firm’s Philadelphia office. His practice is concentrated in the areas of complex civil litigation, commercial litigation and defamation.
