Biography

Stanislaw Bartesiewics was born 1888 in Lithuanian territories of the Russian Empire. Worked as a laborer. Immigrated to the United States in 1913.

As a young man he shot and killed a woman under unclear circumstances and fled to the United States in 1899, where his wife joined him. That same year he was extradited back to Russia, convicted, and imprisoned for three years and seven months, during which time his wife remained in the United States and divorced him. He re-entered the U.S. in 1915 and joined the Lithuanian section of the Communist Party of America. In Detroit in 1920 he was denounced as a violent Communist to federal agents by his second wife Julia, as well as his brother George and sister-in-law. Arrested during the January 1920 Palmer Raids, he was deported on January 20, 1921.

Case

Charges: Administrative deportation under the wartime Immigration Acts — expelled as an alien radical (Union of Russian Workers member) in the First Red Scare.
Arrested: January 1920
Incarcerated: January 1920
Released: Jan 20, 1921
In exile since: Jan 20, 1921
Sentence: Arrested in January 1920 and deported on January 20, 1921. The source records no release on bail or bond, so custody pending deportation is recorded from arrest to sailing; if evidence of an interim release surfaces, the span should be shortened. Charges as recorded: Administrative deportation under the wartime Immigration Acts — expelled as an alien radical (Union of Russian Workers member) in the First Red Scare. Documented in Kenyon Zimmer’s Red Scare Deportees index, drawn from INS deportation files.
