Christa Pike unconscious, on ventilator at Nashville hospital, her lawyers say
Christa Pike, who survived a failed execution in Tennessee this week, is unconscious and on a ventilator in hospital after receiving two lethal doses of pentobarbital.
Christa Pike, the woman who survived an execution attempt in Tennessee earlier this week, is on a ventilator as she receives care in the hospital, her lawyers said in a new statement Friday.
Tennessee's attempt to execute Christa Pike by lethal injection failed after she survived two doses of pentobarbital and was rushed to hospital.
Her lawyers say she is critically ill, unconscious, intubated and on a ventilator, with significant injuries to both arms from the execution attempt.
Her legal team has filed to preserve all evidence from the failed execution, saying they had warned the state and courts about these risks months earlier.
