The 32-page report was completed on October 10 2025 and concluded Ellen’s case should remain classified as a suicide, despite documenting 20 bruises on Ellen’s body in addition to the 11 noted in the original autopsy and a further 3 stab wounds taking the total to 23, including 10 to the back of her head and neck.
