Lamb McErlane PC Attorney Joseph Podraza Interviewed by CBS Philly on the 10th anniversary of the Death of Ellen Greenberg
Lamb McErlane PC Attorney Joseph Podraza was interviewed by CBS Philly on the 10th anniversary of the death of Ellen Greenberg. New evidence suggests Greenberg, found stabbed 20 times, was murdered, not a suicide as ruled.
Back on Jan. 26, 2011, Ellen was a 27-year-old teacher when she was found dead inside her Manayunk apartment with 20 stab wounds to her body.
“I’d like to bring this to a conclusion as promptly as possible,” said Center City-based attorney Joe Podraza.
Podraza is the Greenberg’s attorney and says the Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office initially ruled the case a homicide but later changed it to suicide.
Last year, Eyewitness News was shown an exclusive look at images. At the time, the family’s attorney called it new forensic evidence which he said proves Ellen could not have stabbed herself 20 times.
“We now have the evidence to disprove that,” Podraza said.
On Tuesday, the 10th anniversary of Ellen’s death, Podraza is revealing more new evidence he’s just obtained in the case. It’s evidence that contradicts investigators’ initial claim Ellen searched online for phrases like “methods of committing suicide.”
“We do have a forensic evaluation of the hard drive of Ellen’s computer and laptop which will definitively establish that she was not predisposed in searches towards death or suicide or things of that nature,” Podraza said.
Podraza says he sent that information to the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office Monday and now is urging the AG to reopen the case.
The Greenberg’s attorney also says he plans to go to trial later this year with the city of Philadelphia to prove the death should be ruled a homicide instead of a suicide.
“Justice delayed is justice denied for the Greenberg’s. And they have suffered, they suffered over ten years seeking justice,” Podraza said.
More than 27,000 people have signed a change.org petition calling for the case to be reopened. There is also a Facebook page in Ellen’s honor called “Justice for Ellen.”
