THE MYSTERIOUS DEATH OF ELLEN GREENBERG
CRIME FAMILY is back!
In our first episode of season seven, we explore the shocking and deeply disputed 2011 death of 27-year-old Philadelphia teacher Ellen Greenberg, who was found in her locked apartment with 20 stab wounds — yet her death was ultimately ruled a suicide. We walk through the chilling scene, the conflicting autopsy results, and the forensic evidence that has baffled experts and fueled public debate for more than a decade.
From the bruises on Ellen’s body to the wounds in areas she shouldn’t have been able to reach, and her parents’ relentless legal battle for answers, we examine the troubling questions that remain. Was this truly self-inflicted — or has a homicide been overlooked?
If you or someone you know is struggling, you’re not alone—help is always available.
In the U.S. and Canada, you can call or text 988 to reach the National Suicide and Crisis Helpline. Support is free, confidential, and available 24/7.
