Ellen Greenberg, a 27-year-old teacher, was found covered in bruises and stabbed to death in her apartment during a blizzard more than a decade ago. Despite the blood-soaked crime scene, evidence her body had been moved and stab wounds to the back of her skull, investigators found "no evidence of a struggle in the kitchen area or anywhere else in the apartment."

Dr. Marlon Osbourne, a former pathologist at the Medical Examiner's Office in Philadelphia, initially ruled the death a homicide, based on the injuries, then backtracked and revised the manner of death to suicide after conferring with city police, according to a civil lawsuit from Greenberg's family.

An appeals court heard arguments in a civil lawsuit this week and will decide whether it can move to trial.

EtA....oh...they changed it from homicide to suicide after conferring with the police. Totally nothing weird or corrupt about that.

At first it was ruled a homicide....then the ME changed it to a suicide later. Wonder why?

Maybe it was a homicide that identified as a suicide

This kind of cover-up somewhat implies a major figure was involved. Someone with leverage to get the statements changed.

Four key pieces of evidence caused him to doubt Osbourne's finding of suicide, he said. A wound to the top of her head, the fact that she was found seated upright, but blood had dripped sideways across her face indicating that she had been moved a large amount of bruises at different stages of healing, and the fiance's claim that he broke the locked door down when crime scene photos show the latch still attached to both the door and the frame.
