David Mitchell (murderer)

David Mitchell (1972 – 6 January 2000) was a Bahamian murderer who killed two German tourists in the Bahamas and was executed as a result.

Mitchell was hanged in the Fox Hill Prison in Nassau on the morning of 6 January 2000.

His execution was controversial because it was carried out while he had an appeal pending before the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights.

Amnesty International alleged that this amounted to a violation of the Bahamas' treaty obligations as a member of the Organization of American States.
