Crime Junkie

In this episode of Crime Junkie, Ashley Flowers and Brit Prawat revisit the mysterious death of Ellen Greenberg, updating their original 2021 report with insights from a new documentary and additional reporting by Audiochuck's Nina Schutzman. They dissect the details of the case, starting with the 911 call and initial police investigation, which quickly ruled Ellen's death a suicide despite multiple stab wounds. The hosts discuss the conflicting evidence, including the medical examiner's initial homicide ruling, the subsequent change to suicide, and the various experts who dispute the suicide conclusion. They also highlight questionable actions by the police, the victim's fiancé, and the medical examiner's office, as well as new information that has surfaced since the original report. Nina Schutzman then provides updates on the case, including the recent settlement and ongoing legal proceedings.
