Christa Pike, the only woman on death row in Tennessee, survived a recent execution attempt and is reported to be recovering in what officials and commentators have called an unprecedented situation. Reports say the attempt did not proceed to completion, raising questions about how the state will proceed and whether another execution date will be set. Coverage is focused on her medical condition and the legal and ethical implications of a botched or failed execution in the US death penalty system.
Why now: A failed execution of a death row inmate is rare and raises urgent questions about capital punishment procedures.
