Welcome back to Death by Champagne, the podcast here to keep you up at night! We are here this week to bring you the final installment of our latest series, Ira Einhorn and the murder of Holly Maddux. We pick up where we left off, diving further into Holly and Ira’s lives together and end the episode with a detailed look at Ira’s capture after almost 24 years of getting away with murder. We would also like to apologize up front for any audio issues, tough week recording in new spaces.
 
This episode contains foul language, discussions about misogyny, violence towards women, murder, and descriptions of body decomposition. We’ll do our best to stay on track, but the bottles are popped!
