In this episode of Unexplained America, your host Lisa will discuss the sad and strangely mysterious death of Ellen Greenberg.
On January 26, 2011, Ellen Greenberg would be found dead in her apartment in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, that she shared with her fiance.
Ellen's death is at first ruled as a homicide by the Philadelphia Medical Examiner Dr. Marlon Osborne; however, the Philadelphia Police Department decide that lack of an intruder made the scene look like a suicide; even though Ellen sustained twenty stab wounds --many of which, were to the back of her neck and head area.
The Philadelphia ME would change the manner of death to suicide which would lead Ellen's parents on a 14 year legal battle with the state of Pennsylvania.
Listen to hear full details and note the actual 911 call is included in the episode.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
