Mental Health Misused, Evidence Destroyed, Questions Ignored | Ellen Greenberg Deep Dive

Ellen Greenberg was found with 20 stab wounds — including 10 in the back of her neck. And yet, her death was ruled a suicide. How? And more importantly — why?

In this deeply psychological and emotionally charged episode of Hidden Killers Live, host Tony Brueski is joined by psychotherapist Shavaun Scott to unpack not just the facts of the case, but the emotional truth that’s been obscured for over a decade.
We start with Ellen’s mental state — not just in the days before her death, but over the months of quiet withdrawal that went ignored or misinterpreted. She stopped wearing her engagement ring. She told her parents she wanted to come home. And yet, no one — not friends, not authorities — ever seemed to ask what she might have been retreating from.
Then we turn to the psychiatric timeline. Ellen had three sessions with a psychiatrist. No history of suicide attempts. No diagnosed depression. No recorded ideation. And yet that paper-thin narrative — “she was anxious” — became the foundation for an official suicide ruling.
We also confront what happened after her death — the reversal from homicide to suicide, the cleaned crime scene, the missing chain of custody, and the devices removed by her fiancé’s uncle before detectives could investigate. Her fiancé, Sam Goldberg, never pushed back on the suicide narrative. In fact, he reportedly said, “Do you think I killed her?”
This case isn’t just forensic failure. It’s emotional sabotage, institutional betrayal, and a test of whether truth still matters when it's inconvenient.

This episode doesn’t just question the ruling — it questions the people who accepted it.

Sam Goldberg, Ellen Greenberg’s fiancé at the time of her death, has never been charged with any crime in connection to this case. He has consistently maintained that Ellen’s death was a suicide. All individuals mentioned in this segment are presumed innocent unless proven otherwise.
