About Dawud M. Mu'Min
- Dawud Majid Mu'Min (born as David Michael Allen) (May 19, 1953 – November 13, 1997) was a convicted murderer executed by the State of Virginia for the September 22, 1988, killing of a retailer.
- He was serving a 48-year prison sentence for a 1973 murder conviction of a taxi driver in Grayson County.
- While in prison, he converted to Islam.
- Mu'Min was assigned to a daily work crew detail with the Virginia Department of Transportation in Dale City.
- During his lunch break, he left his group, which was supervised only by an unarmed transportation crew worker, and made his way to a nearby business, Dale City Floors, in the Ashdale Shopping Center, and found Gladys Nopwasky, the proprietor.
- He raped her and then stabbed her 16 times in the neck and chest with a screwdriver.
- He took $4.00 and returned to the road detail, leaving Nopwasky's half-naked body lying in a pool of her blood. Mu'Min was arrested and convicted of capital murder.
- The Corrections Department, meanwhile, responded to public outcry over the killing by revamping its 80-year-old practice of using inmate labor outside the prison fences.
- Virginia now allows only inmates convicted of nonviolent crimes and considered to be low security risks to take part in work details, which are supervised by armed corrections officers.
- Mu'Min was put to death by lethal injection at Greensville Correctional Center.
