Just what we needed, another day to push the neo-Bolshevik agenda under the guise of “the environment”. Fun fact about one of the co-founders of “Earth Day”….
Who could have imagined that a man responsible for co-founding a Marxist movement would be a control freak who murdered his girlfriend because she was leaving him and then stashed her body in a trunk in his apartment?
Early life never lets me down, although a guy named Ira Einhorn and that picture? It wasn’t a giant mystery. Einhorn’s defense revolved around….well, I will let you read it for yourself,
It wasn’t until 18 months later that investigators searched Einhorn’s apartment after one of his neighbors complained that a reddish-brown, foul-smelling liquid was leaking from the ceiling directly below Einhorn’s bedroom closet. Inside the closet, police found Maddux’s beaten and partially mummified body stuffed into a trunk that had also been packed with Styrofoam, air fresheners and newspapers.
After his arrest, Einhorn jumped bail and spent decades evading authorities by hiding out in Ireland, Sweden, the United Kingdom and France. After 23 years, he was finally extradited to the United States from France and put on trial. Taking the stand in his own defense, Einhorn claimed that his ex-girlfriend had been killed by CIA agents who framed him for the crime because he knew too much about the agency’s paranormal military research. He was convicted of murdering Maddux and is currently serving a life sentence.

I won’t say that is the dumbest defense ever, and in 2024 it certainly seems to be at least close to plausible.
He has since died of natural causes and the world is a better place for his absence.
“Ira Einhorn.” Name makes me think of the tiny beanie, somehow.
