Documents from Medical Examiner Reveal Reasons for Ellen Greenberg's Death Ruling
The Philadelphia Chief Medical Examiner has announced a new ruling in the death of Ellen Greenberg, a Manayunk teacher, confirming that her death was a suicide.
Greenberg's body was found with over 20 stab wounds to her chest and the back of her neck and head, as well as bruises all over her body. However, the medical examiner determined that the bruises were not caused by an assailant, but rather by daily activities, including her job.
