Krista Pike in Critical condition after failed execution
American Krista Pike, who was facing execution in Tennessee after being convicted of murder in 1995, narrowly escaped a failed execution attempt on Wednesday evening. She sustained serious injuries and is in critical condition, with her doctors still trying to save her. The failed execution has reignited debates over the death penalty in the United States, especially since Pike would have been the first woman to be executed in over two centuries in Tennessee. Her lawyer confirms that her condition remains critical and that she is on a ventilator, calling on the state governor to commute her sentence.
