Fugitive Ira Einhorn Returns to U.S.

PHILADELPHIA – For a long time, Ira Einhorn was as elusive as the mythical creature whose name he adopted.

Two decades ago, the man called the Unicorn fled the United States while awaiting trial for the murder of his girlfriend, Helen "Holly" Maddux, shocking the powerful benefactors who had posted bail.

A well-known 1960s activist and later a New Age guru, Einhorn lived in Europe under assumed names and kept one step ahead of authorities until his arrest in southern France in 1997.
