Her death from 20 stab wounds was ruled a suicide. The case just reopened.
Briefly

Ellen Greenberg's death in 2011, initially ruled a homicide, was later categorized as a suicide. Recent revelations by the city pathologist indicate a change in perspective, now questioning the suicide conclusion. Investigators have cited her documented mental health struggles but lack of evidence regarding a suicidal mindset. Surrounding circumstances, including absence of burglary signs and testimonies from family, have sparked ongoing debates about the accuracy of these conclusions and the handling of the case. Public interest in clarifying the circumstances of her death remains strong.
"The city pathologist... walked back his April 2011 determination saying he no longer believes Greenberg died by suicide. This case remains unresolved and controversial."
"Greenberg's death was initially ruled a homicide, then weeks later it was reversed to suicide despite no solid evidence suggesting she was suicidal."
