Details of Christina Baker's failed execution

Crista Pike's execution attempt in Tennessee ended in a serious failure due to the inability to establish suitable IV lines. The execution team used approximately 10 needles in a failed attempt to administer the drug. Pike survived the injection of pentobarbital, leading to her being taken to the hospital. This incident raised questions about the methods used in executions. As a result, Tennessee paused all executions pending an independent review, highlighting the lack of clear protocols when a condemned individual survives the second dose.
