PA - Ellen Greenberg, 27, Philly teacher’s brutal stabbing, ruled suicide but possible homicide, Jan 2011

That 911 call has so many red flags it could be stitched into a blanket.

“Oh my gosh, she stabbed herself!”
“She fell on her knife!”
“There’s a knife sticking out of her heart!”

A) Who discovers a knife stuck in someone’s chest and automatically assumes that person stabbed themselves? Door locked or not, that’s abnormal.
B) What are the chances that someone would (or even could) fall on a knife and stab themselves in “the heart” this way?
C) How did he immediately know the knife was stuck in her heart? He was hardly a medical professional. And by hardly, I mean not at all.

He also wastes a solid 30 seconds needlessly explaining how he left his apartment x amount of time ago and then he returned but couldn’t get inside and he had to break down the door and blah blah blah before getting to the part where someone he loves desperately needs medical attention.

Hard to argue against. Anyhow, the documentary is excellent - allows for a glimpse of the pain felt by so many in Ellen’s community.

Someone should think about establishing procedures to ensure the communication between LE and ME - and the family - follows the proper iterative protocol.you can’t have crime scene clean ups prematurely. It’s irreversible.

Where Is Ellen Greenberg's Fiancé Now?

Ellen's loved ones noticed some changes in her behavior after she and Goldberg began dating. Her best friend Alyson Stern recalled Ellen spending more time with Goldberg and his family and seeing less of her own friends, noting that Ellen was "closed off" about her wedding plans. Meanwhile, her colleagues noticed that she almost never wore her engagement ring, but that Ellen just told them she didn't feel like wearing it because it rolled around her finger.

I’ll give someone a pass for being shocked but that doesn’t mean what they say is right. You find a dead body you might say whatever pops into your head. If you aren’t the killer and had to unlock a door you might think murder isn’t possible. I think the fiancé is suspicious. This doesn’t seem like a suicide.

One of the worst USA miscarriages of justice in recent years IMO. Absolutely embarrassing, and I think the legal system knows how embarrassing it looks for them and is thusly dragging their feet.
