Christa Pike to Tony Carruthers: People who survived lethal injections during execution
Christa Pike survived her execution by lethal injection in Tennessee and is now reportedly being taken to the hospital.
The US Supreme Court has allowed the execution of Christa Pike to proceed. This comes after a federal appeals court had halted the execution in Tennessee just hours before it was set to take place. The Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling means Pike will be the first woman to be executed in the state in over two centuries.
