‘It’s Total B.S.’: Nancy Grace Says Ellen Greenberg’s Death Was ‘No Suicide’

Philadelphia school teacher Ellen Greenberg came home early from on January 26, 2011, because of a blizzard. She called the parents of all her students to make sure they got home safely.

Her fiancé, Sam Goldberg, left her in the kitchen making lunch, but when he returned 45 minutes later, he said, the door was locked from the inside. He broke in and found Greenberg dead, with more than 20 stab wounds.

The Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office initially called the death a homicide, but less than a month later reversed that ruling. Ellen Greenberg, the office said, killed herself.

“It’s total B.S.,” CrimeOnline’s Nancy Grace told Fox News.

“This is no suicide,” she said. “There’s no way Ellen Greenberg would have murdered herself, much less in this manner.”

Especially since several of her wounds were to the back and, some experts point out, were apparently inflicted post mortem.

Greenberg’s parents have never let up on pressure to reopen the case, or to at least change her manner of death to homicide or undetermined. But the state attorney general’s office — headed up at the time of Greenberg’s death by now-Governor Josh Shapiro — still agrees with the suicide ruling, although it has admitted “that there is the appearance of conflict,” Grace said.

Greenberg’s family, meanwhile, has turned their attention to pressuring Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney to reopen the case.

“There needs to be an independent medical examiner’s office involved so we can get a clear answer to what happened to Ellen,” Grace said.

“Ellen’s parents wake up every morning in this hellish nightmare trying to clear their daughter’s name,” she added.

Grace urged viewers to call the attorney general’s office at 717-787-3391 to urge them to reopen the case and sign a petition, which currently has more than 200,000 signatures calling for justice for Ellen.
