Daniel Lewis Lee (January 31, 1973 – July 14, 2020) was an American white supremacist, neo-Nazi, and murderer. In 1999, Lee was convicted as an accomplice to Chevie Kehoe in the 1996 murders of William Frederick Mueller, Nancy Ann Mueller, and their young daughter Sarah Elizabeth Powell, during a robbery at their Arkansas home. The murders were committed as part of a plot to establish a white ethnostate in the Pacific Northwest, known as the Northwest Territorial Imperative. While Kehoe was found guilty of the triple murder in a separate trial and was sentenced to three consecutive terms of life imprisonment without parole, Lee was sentenced to death. Lee had been previously convicted for assisting his cousin in the 1990 murder of Joey Wavra. Upon conviction by the US federal government, Lee stayed on death row for 21 years before he was scheduled to be executed on July 13, 2020, but on that date, a U.S. district judge blocked the execution, citing unresolved legal issues. Thereafter, on July 14, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the execution could proceed. It was scheduled for 4:00 a.m. that same day. After another short delay, he was executed at 8:07 a.m. He was the first person executed by the US federal government since 2003.
