The Pennsylvania Supreme Court decided on Tuesday to hear the case of Ellen Greenberg whose death was ruled a suicide in 2011, but her parents have fought for over a decade to get the manner of death changed to a homicide or undecided.

Then, on April 4, 2011, Osbourne formally amended the manner of death on Greenberg’s death certificate from homicide to suicide. “The Greenbergs have presented evidence that according to the court, a jury or the court itself, could determine is sufficient to question the information that Dr. Osborne was given when Dr. Osbourne changed the death certificate from homicide to suicide,” Podraza said.

In April of 2024, a court ruled that Greenberg’s family could depose former Philadelphia prosecutor, Guy D'Andrea, who said he has doubts that her death was a suicide.“We are pleased and so should every parent in America. Ellen’s death is so obviously a murder. This case is riddled with delay tactics!" Greenberg's parents, Josh and Sandee, said.

And, he continued, if she was incapacitated, she could have never been able to stab herself nearly two dozen times.
