description: "Ira Samuel Einhorn, known as \"The Unicorn Killer\", was an American environmental activist and murderer. His moniker, \"the Unicorn\", was derived from his surname; Einhorn means \"unicorn\" in German. As an environmental activist, Einhorn was a speaker at the first Earth Day event in Philadelphia in 1970. On September 9, 1977, Einhorn's ex-girlfriend Holly Maddux disappeared following a trip to collect her belongings from the apartment she and Einhorn had shared in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Eighteen months later, police found her partially decomposed body in a trunk in Einhorn's closet."
