    Stephen Louis Mitcham - California

    Facts of the Crime:

    The evidence at trial established that, on April 5, 1983, Mitcham committed a robbery at Ormond's Jewelry Store, and that during the robbery he murdered the proprietor, James Ormond, and attempted to murder Yvette Williams, a store employee. The evidence also established that codefendant Keith Hammond drove the getaway car after the robbery and murder.

    Mitcham was sentenced to death on July 6, 1984 in Alameda County.

    Mitcham appears to have been resentenced. He's no longer on the California Death row list on the DOC website and he apparently became eligible for parole in 2015.

    His conviction was thrown out by the Federal District Court in 2015 so I imagine he took a plea deal.
