Ular Lee Winfun was pronounced dead due to natural causes at 6:57 p.m. on Monday, July 19, 2021 in a hospice room of the Iowa State Penitentiary.Winfun was 66 years old at the time of his death.

Winfun had been serving a life sentence for the crime of Murder 1st Degree from Lee County. His sentence began on February 4, 1977.

Winfun shot Morris Green to death on July 31, 1976, in the back of the Six-Pack Tavern in Keokuk. The two men had worked together on a painting crew for some time. There was “bad blood” between the two  according to an Iowa Supreme Court ruling on the case and the court outlined the events that led up to the shooting. Winfun had his girlfriend buy a gun, he did some target shooting that afternoon and that July evening back in 1976 he was drinking at the tavern. After Green got to the tavern, Winfun shot Green once. Green fell to the floor and Winfun fired five more shots into Green’s body. Winfun then left the tavern, walked to the Keokuk Police Station and turned himself in.  The Iowa Supreme Court rejected Winfun’s request for a new trial in 1978 and ruled there was more than ample evidence he was guilty of first degree murder.

In the interest of keeping Henry County residents informed, the Henry County Sheriff’s office has requested KILJ post the daily jail count. During the jail referendum campaign it was publicized that the jail would be able to house additional inmates from surrounding counties and this would generate revenue for Henry County.
