Today, Nancy Grace and Sheryl McCollum discuss the tragic death of Ellen Greenberg, a first-grade teacher whose death was ruled a suicide despite evidence pointing to murder.

Grace breaks down major red flags, including troubling forensic details and mistakes made by Philadelphia police. The duo also discuss the Bryan Kohberger case, where the defense plans to use autism as part of its legal strategy and what that could mean for the trial.

Nancy’s book: What Happened to Ellen?: An American Miscarriage of Justice is available now. All proceeds will go to  National Center for Missing and Exploited Children - NCMC
