Do you get a 200 when you GET that same doc id? I suspect you get a 404. If so, check you have the right id, perhaps you need to escape some fields. Better, try deleting it from Futon which handles the escaping for you.
If you're deleting an admin user, then you need to modify your .ini files (preferably via /_config/admins) instead. B.
