Cándido Cartón (d. Buenos Aires, 1970) was a Spanish executioner of the Audiencia de Sevilla (1936–39) and Audiencia Nacional (1940-49).[1]
He fought in the Spanish Civil War with the Spanish Armed Forces in Francoist Spain.[2]
When the war ended, he lost his family and asked to be reinstated as executioner until 1950, when he resigned and emigrated to Buenos Aires, where he died in 1970.[2]
