Philadelphia Reaffirms Suicide Ruling in Greenberg Case

Philadelphia’s medical examiner again ruled the 2011 death of schoolteacher Ellen Greenberg a suicide after a settlement prompted a fresh review. Family attorney Joseph Podraza Jr. condemned Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Lindsay Simon’s report as a predetermined, deeply flawed review that ignores 3D reconstructions, unexplained bruises, missing surveillance, and other contradictions, and distorts Greenberg’s mental health. Last month, a judge criticized city attorneys amid claims of a settlement violation. A hearing on the review was slated for Tuesday; its status is unclear. The city has not immediately responded to requests for comment.
