Ivan Abner Cantu (June 14, 1973 – February 28, 2024) was an American man from Dallas, Texas, convicted of the double murder of his cousin, James Mosqueda and Mosqueda's girlfriend, Amy Kitchen, who were shot in their home.

The evidence that was used in his conviction was later deemed to be questionable by his supporters, including the claims that one of the only two key prosecution witnesses had admitted he had lied.

There were calls by politicians such as Joaquin Castro and his brother Julian Castro, celebrities such as Jane Fonda, Kim Kardashian and Martin Sheen, as well as organizations such as Amnesty International, for his case to be reviewed.
