According to Ruiz, a petition with 150,000 signatures on Change.org demands for the attorney general in Pennsylvania to reopen the case. Greenberg’s family has initiated an independent investigation. They have also filed two lawsuits against Osbourne and two other pathologists for conspiracy to cover up Greenberg’s cause of death. The first lawsuit seeks to have Greenberg’s death changed to homicide or undecided from suicide. Greenberg’s family has also hired ex-police trooper, Tom Brennan, as a private investigator. The first case is expected to go to trial in the next three months.

Doubts on the Ruling As Suicide

Ruiz also said that an ex-homicide prosecutor from the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office, Guy D’Andrea, stated that there are four important pieces of evidence that prompted him to question the ruling of the death as suicide. First, there was a large wound at the top of Greenberg’s head. Second, Greenberg was discovered seated upright, but blood had dripped sideways on her face. Third, Greenberg seemed to have several old and new bruises. Lastly, Goldberg had previously stated that he had broken down the door to the apartment. However, crime scene photos revealed that the latches to the door were still attached.
