			[[Image:BartelsEdward.jpg\|left\|thumb\|100px\|Edward Bartels]]BARTELS, Edward. (Dubuque, IA--East Dubuque, IL, July 11, 1960). The son of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Bartels, Edward attended Nativity Grade School and graduated in 1944 from [[DUBUQUE SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL]]. In high school he played football and was named all-state center his senior year. From 1944 to 1946 he served in the Navy as a hospital corpsman. He then entered the University of Iowa's medical school and received his degree in 1953. He did his internship at Fresno County Hospital, in Fresno, California before returning to Dubuque to open his practice. The cold-blooded murder of the Dubuque physician and father led to the execution of [[FEGUER, Victor Harry\|Victor Harry FEGUER]].

	On July 11, 1960 Dr. Bartels answered a call at his residence on Indian Ridge for help at about 7:30 p.m. He was asked to come to 1134 Locust to treat a "critically ill Mrs. Stevens." At 10:00 p.m. a "low voiced man" called Mrs. Bartels and said her husband would be remaining at the address overnight while a specialist was being contacted. A clerk at a nearby drugstore reported overhearing the conversation.

	On July 19th a state kidnapping charge was filed against Feguer of St. John, Michigan.

	It was later stated during his trial that Feguer, seeking a general practitioner who would be likely to carry morphine or demerol, chose his victim from the phone book. Bartel's name had been the first listed. Feguer drove Bartels into Illinois where he shot the doctor and stole his car. ~~It was in attempting to sell the car that Feguer was captured.~~		Feguer and another man later identified at Jack Hale of Birmingham, Alabama were arrested on July 20, 1960 in Birmingham by F.B.I. agents after attempting to sell Bartel's automobile. Salesmen became suspicious of the two and asked them to return to the car lot in an hour. They then called authorities. (6) Hale admitted that Feguer had stolen the car from a Dubuque doctor. The F.B.I charged that Hale accompanied Feguer from Gary, Indiana to Grand Rapids, Michigan and then to Birmingham. Hale waived his right to a court-appointed attorney and plead guilty to the charges of the interstate transportation of a stolen car. (7)

			On July 25th a federal court in Birmingham order Feguer returned to Iowa to face a federal grand jury after being mentally evaluated for not more than forty days. (8) On July 26, 1960 he was committed to the U. S. Health Center in Springfield, Missouri. (9) On August 9, 1960 he was indicted by a federal jury. (10)

	Feguer's appeal was rejected by Harry Blackmun, then a federal appeals court judge in St. Louis and later a member of the United States Supreme Court. His appeal was also denied by President John F. Kennedy.		Feguer's appeal was rejected by Harry Blackmun, then a federal appeals court judge in St. Louis and later a member of the United States Supreme Court.
