FBI investigates nun's death on Navajo reservation



NAVAJO, N.M. -- Authorities believe that a 64-year-old nun found dead in her residence on the Navajo Nation may have been murdered.

The FBI says Sister Marguerite Bartz failed to show up to Sunday Mass so a colleague went to check on her and found her body. Her vehicle is missing.

The FBI and state police are combing Bartz's residence at St. Berard Mission Church for evidence, and an autopsy is planned.

FBI Special Agent Darrin Jones would not say how Bartz died.

Investigators say they are seeking to speak with anyone who talked with Bartz on Halloween night or who believes they may have information related to the case.

Pray for Us


U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder testified before the senate judiciary committee and basically shrugged when asked if any other enemy combatant captured overseas had ever been brought to civilian criminal court to face justice. Talk about an incompetent boob, not to mention a disgrace.
