Chapter 33 Stevens flew to Philadelphia in March of 1978 and the two of them reviewed what they had and made plans to interview Ira face to face. They called to make an appointment. Ira declined. He was too busy organizing Sun Day, an environmental "event." Stevens was persistent and Einhorn just told him that he had no love for Holly's parents - and that, in fact, getting away from her parents was the main reason she had disappeared! (Standard psychopathic trick! Blame the victims) Stevens pointed out to Einhorn that Holly had not just cut off contact with her parents, but with all her friends and Ira himself. Ira acknowledged this, and said that Holly just simply wanted to transform her life by cutting all her ties. Stevens argued that her parents did not intend to interfere in her life, they merely wanted to know that she was alright. Ira replied that he still would not cooperate since Holly did not want to be found. He did tell Stevens the bathtub story with the "Holly called me and said she was alright" variation. Stevens and Pearce, experienced "G men," discussed Ira's evasiveness and his unwillingness to assist. They could see no reason for someone who had been so close to Holly, someone who claimed to love her, to be so reluctant to help an investigation for the purpose of merely assuring her parents that she was alright. The fact that Ira refused to help, even while admitting that he knew no one who was in touch with Holly, including himself, was highly suspicious. At that moment, as Steven Levy recounts in his book The Unicorn's Secret, Ira Einhorn became a suspect. Stevens had to return to Texas, so R.J. Pearce continued the investigation in Philadelphia. He decided to approach the whole matter as if it were a "fugitive" case, develop contacts with people who knew her, and find out who saw her last and when and under what circumstances. After interviewing Ira's parents, who were baffled that Ira would not cooperate with helping to establish that Holly was alright, Pearce inteviewed the property managers at 3411 Race Street. They loved Holly, but didn't like Ira saying that he was strange. They weren't sure what he did for a living, saying that he was a guru/consultant about UFOs or something. When Pearce asked if they thought that Einhorn would harm Holly, they admitted that they had thought of this and discussed it, but had discarded it since Ira had such a widespread reputation as an advocate of non-violence. Walking back to the front of Ira's building, Pearce rang Ira's bell and was buzzed in. Before he had climbed the stairs, Ira came to the door and wanted to know who the visitor was. Pearce described the encounter in a report reproduced in Steven Levy's book, The Unicorn's Secret:
Pearce next spoke to a number of Philadelphia officials in law enforcement, one of whom was George Fencl who knew Einhorn and had recently been in contact with him as a consequence of the Sun Day shindig. Pearce asked him to have a chat with Ira, and Fencl did so. The result of this talk was that Ira again made it clear that he had no desire to help anyone find Holly. He also commented to Fencl that this matter wwas getting an unusual amount of attention for a routine missing persons case - a detective, and ex-FBI man, and now a police inspector. The implication was, of course, that the attention was focused on Ira, and not simply because Holly was missing. Fencl asked him to just help straighten it out and Ira promised he would. A few weeks later he called Fencl and told him that, after discussing it with all his friends, it seemd that Holly was "out of the country." He said he would do some checking himself when he was abroad later in the upcoming weeks. George Fencl relayed this promising information to Pearce who then asked him: Would Ira Einhorn harm Holly Maddux? Fencl admitted that Ira was strange. "He would write you a letter to set up a meeting and a week later just walk in your office unannounced. But everyone knew Ira Einhorn advocated and practiced nonviolence and the police inspector had no evidence to the contrary." As Pearce developed leads, he talked to an acquaintance of Holly's who had chatted with her while she was at Joyce Petschek's house on Fire Island in the weeks before she disappeared. In late August of 1978, this individual told Pearce that Holly had told him that she had broken up with Einhorn permanently and there was a new man in her life, Saul. He then told Pearce about Andrija Puharich. R.J. Pearce, an ex-FBI guy, knew nothing about the "colorful history" of Puharich. As it happened, Puharich's three-story house in Ossining, new York, the headquarters for his "mind-blowing experiments of the Space Kids," had just recently burned down. The police had ruled the case arson. Pearce dispatched another former FBI agent, Clyde Olver, to investigate the burning of Puharich's house in order to determine if there might be any connection between that and Holly's disappearance. Puharich was rumored to have fled to Mexico, but the neighbors had plenty to say about the "strange goings on" at Turkey Farm. They said there were people coming from all over the world for "unspecified, and possibly unnatural experiments." Olver tracked down three of the "Space Kids" who had been living at Puharich's before the house burned down. They were, apparently, feeling pretty badly treated by Puharich because he had just up and disappeared, abandoning them. However, they did know Ira. In fact, they mentioned that they had seen him quite recently: a day or two after the fire, Ira had appeared out of nowhere, promising to recruit an investigative reporter to look into the fire. I must admit that reading this item raised a huge question in my mind. I started to wonder exactly WHEN Ira Einhorn began to propose the ideas that someone was out to get him, that the work he was doing was dangerous? When, exactly, did the assembly of obviously gullible people with whom Ira hung out, begin to think that they were all playing some kind of exciting and dangerous "cat and mouse" game with the "shadow government?" Who came up with that idea? Who promoted it? It occurred to me that it would be VERY handy for ALL of that group who hung around with Puharich to think that somebody was really AFTER them - which they would naturally think if Puharich's house was torched. And that idea, of course, would lend great credibility to Einhorn's own claims that he was "framed." It would be a very convincing emotional shock to all his friends and would incline them to believe Ira and support him. In fact, that is a standard ploy of the psychopath: to actually instigate sabotage of some sort so as to create the image of being attacked, or stalked, or in some kind of danger so that they can engender sympathy and support by their "brave and stoic endurance" of their troubles. But again, the clue is that the words and actions are out of sync. Did Ira Einhorn burn down Andrija Puharich's house to put Puharich's supporters in a shocked and confused frame of mind so that they would be more susceptible to believing his claims about being framed? After all, it was in March that Ira was first approached by Stevens and Pearce. It was after that when Fencl talked to Ira and Einhorn made his comment about the unusual amount of interest Holly's missing status was attracting. Did he then begin to build up the tension of the idea of being stalked by nefarious groups, and did he then begin making plans as to how he would "confirm" this impression? Was the burning of Andrija Puharich's house part of his plan to convince the people of "wealth and taste" who had flocked to the support of their "paranormal" interests, that the experiments undertaken by Puharich were "dangerous," and that Ira was also in danger? Could Ira have burned down Puharich's house to produce the impression that he was "next on the list" of those to be stalked and dealt with? Could he have been influential in convincing Puharich himself of these ideas so that he would promote them to his supporters? Was this also designed to set their backs up against the authorities who might later wish to ask questions about Holly's disappearance? Such as "ex FBI agents" who Ira already knew were asking questions? And just after the burning of Puharich's house, Ira shows up one or two days later and promises to recruit an investigative reporter? The rumors about Puharich and his possible "government" connections-turned-sour have run rampant for years. But is any of that really true?
The insurance investigator had interviewed Puharich on August 15. He confirmed that Puharich was, indeed, a "medical doctor who had authored several books, an expert in paranormal phenomena." Puharich had also provided to the insurance company the necessary information about his income sources: a $10,000 grant from a Baron DePauli, $15,000 from Dell Books as advance on a book about Tesla; $50,000 for the rights to a movie about Uri Geller, and between 50 and 70 grand for his scheduled lectures. The insurance investigator thought that Puharich was a nutzoid. "It is noteworthy to mention that Puharich stated he has observed numerous UFOs and has communicated with extraterrestrial beings." Puharich was in Los Angeles when the fire occurred, but he suggested to the insurance investigator that the strange behavior of the guy ranting about being harassed by UFOs was not unusual; instead, he pointed out that the fire was very likely started by the CIA as a "warning to him" because he (via Einhorn) had been circulating evidence of Soviet experiments in psychic warfare.
