Oakland, California – A man from the bay area, convicted of the murder of two women whose naked bodies were discovered near the road, showed no remorse during his sentence on Tuesday, breaking the procedure by singing.
What we know
63-year-old David Mish, who is already serving a life sentence at a State Prison for the murder of Margaret Ball in 1989, was sentenced in December for the killings of the best friends Jennifer Doui, 20, and Michelle Xavier, 39 years ago in Fremont.
During his sentence on Tuesday, he began to sing in court while reading the victims’ statements, according to the district prosecutor’s office of Alameda County. He had to be removed from the courtroom.
East Bay Times reported that Mish was singing “99 bottles of beer” before being expelled from the court. He continued to whistle from the nearby cell.
“David Mish’s behavior in court was not only a judgmental but also a screaming manifestation of a lack of remorse for taking the life of Jennifer Doui and Michel Xavier,” said Chief Assistant Prosecutor Royle Roberts. “The families of these two young women have been waiting for nearly 40 years to gain justice for their tragic and meaningless killings.
Mish was sentenced to 50 years to life for these murders.
Double -murder
Background
The naked bodies of Xavier and Doui were found on the side of Fremont’s Mill Creek Road shortly after midnight on February 2, 1986, police said at the time.
Xavier’s Pontiac Sunbird was about six miles from the scene of the Mission Valley Mall Parking in Fremont, police said at the time.
Xavier and Doui attended a family member’s birthday dinner and were last seen at about 8pm on February 1, 1986 at a mixed shop in the Farwell Drive and Mowry Avenue area, police said.
The evidence presented in the process shows that DNA found under Jennifer Doui’s nails in 2001 belongs to mouse, prosecutors said.
Mish claims to Police in Fremont that he saw the two young women abducted with a weapon and tried to save them.

In addition, as evidence, a partial registration number related to the mouse, written on one of the victim’s hands, was presented, according to prosecutors.
Police said they did not believe that Xavier and Doui had some history or contact with mouse before they were killed.
The double murder was resumed after a position in the crime department was established in 2016 to focus on open -ended murder cases and missing persons, police said.
Fremont police said Mouse lived in the area during the killings and was a well -known trading thief and drug use.
Abduction of Michaela Garecht
Dig deeper
Mish was also accused of the disappearance of Michaela Garecht in Hayward in 1988, a story that conquered the bay area and attracted national attention.
Michaela was abducted around 10:15 in the morning of November 19, 1988, after she and her friend had driven their scooters to the Rainbow Grocery Store on Miston Boulevard to buy candy and carbonated drinks.
The girls left the scooters right in front of the store while shopping. When they went to take them, one was moved behind a parked car in the back of the plot, according to police.
When Garecht went to take the scooter, Mish grabbed her and made her sit in the front seat of the car as she walked past her, police said.
Mish was related to the crime through DNA evidence. Authorities said its fingerprints coincide with those of Michaela’s scooter.
From that date, she was not seen or heard.
Mish was accused of 2020 regarding Michaela’s disappearance.
