Welcome to Crimetown, a series produced by Marc Smerling and Zac Stuart-Pontier in partnership with Gimlet Media. Each season, we investigate the culture of crime in a different city. In Season 2, Crimetown heads to the heart of the Rust Belt: Detroit, Michigan. From its heyday as Motor City to its rebirth as the Brooklyn of the Midwest, Detroit’s history reflects a series of issues that strike at the heart of American identity: race, poverty, policing, loss of industry, the war on drugs, an ...

The name Ellen Greenberg has come to represent something larger than a single case — it’s now a symbol of what happens when systems prioritize self-protection over truth.
In 2025, the Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office released a highly anticipated “independent review” of Ellen’s death — only to double down on the original ruling of suicide. Despite 23 wounds, unanswered questions, and growing national outrage, the system closed ranks once again.
In this episode, criminal defense attorney Bob Motta joins Tony Brueski and Stacy Cole to unpack why this report has so many legal experts — and the public — demanding accountability. Together, they break down how the language of “reasonable certainty” shields agencies from scrutiny, why internal reviews rarely lead to justice, and how Ellen’s case reflects a larger failure in forensic oversight.
This isn’t just about one ruling.
This is about how easy it is to rewrite reality when no one wants to face the cost of being wrong.
If you’ve followed the Ellen Greenberg case, this conversation gives voice to everything the report tried to quiet.
And if you haven’t? This is where you need to start.
