20 stab wounds, half of them to the back of the head? Obviously a suicide.

    For more than a decade, the family of a woman stabbed 20 times — including 10 from behind — has battled to have the Philadelphia medical examiner’s ruling that her death was a suicide overturned.

    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.

    Probably the governor's/mayor's/sheriff's/judge's psycho nephew or something.
    Sounds like a plot out of Sin City.

    Her fiance "found her body" and there's evidence he lied about breaking down the door to get in, so I don't think they need to look that far for a suspect. :chris:
