The Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office will reopen and examine Ellen Greenberg’s manner of death.

According to NBC Philadelphia, the decision was part of a settlement reached Monday connected to Greenberg’s death.

As CrimeOnline previously rreported, a pathologist who conducted the autopsy on Ellen Greenberg — and who changed his ruling on the manner of death from homicide to suicide at the insistence of police — has settled a lawsuit filed by Greenberg’s parents against three city officials claiming that they botched the investigation and covered it up.

Ellen, a first-grade teacher, was found fatally stabbed in her Manayunk apartment in 2011. Greenberg’s fiancé, Sam Goldberg, said he left for the gym while Ellen chopped up fruit in the kitchen.

He returned home to find the front door locked, with the swing lock attached to the inside side of the door.

Goldberg said he called and texted Ellen numerous times, but when he couldn’t get an answer and couldn’t get help from the apartment management, he broke the lock and walked inside.

Inside the apartment, Ellen was found slumped over in the kitchen, with “some of her upper body/shoulders resting against the lower half of the white kitchen cabinets.”

Along with a significant laceration at the back of her head caused by a knife, she had multiple bruises in various stages of healing, the autopsy report said.

Since their daughter’s death, Dr. Josh and Sandee Greenberg have been locked in court disputes over changing the cause of death. They have claimed that the medical examiner’s office is hiding evidence of her homicide and have tried to sue to have her death certificate amended from “suicide”to “homicide” or “undetermined.”

Now, a Philadelphia pathologist admits that a mistake was made.

“ I have become aware of additional information I did not have at the time of issuing the amended death certificate which may have impacted my decision,” Marlon Osbourne, previously with the Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office said.

“It is my professional opinion Ellen’s manner of death should be designated as something other than suicide,” Osbourne wrote in the signed court document.”

The story is developing. Check back for updates.
