Derrick Gregory (1949 in Ealing, London – 21 July 1989, Pudu Prison, Kuala Lumpur) was an English drug smuggler who was hanged in Malaysia in 1989. Gregory became the third Westerner to be hanged under Malaysia's tough anti-drugs laws. His hanging was carried out three years after the Barlow and Chambers execution. Some reports described him as being the first Briton to be hanged under Malaysia's drugs laws, but Kevin Barlow had joint Australian–British nationality. Controversy surrounded Gregory's case due to evidence of his intellectual disability since childhood.
