Tennessee Prepares to Execute Christa Pike, First Woman in 200 Years
Original: christa pike
Tennessee is set to execute Christa Pike, the only woman on the state's death row, after Governor Bill Lee denied clemency. It would be the state's first execution of a woman in roughly 200 years. Pike, convicted of a 1995 murder, says she is 'at peace' ahead of the rare execution, and an opinion piece in the New York Times argues she should not be put to death.
Why now: Governor Lee's denial of clemency put the imminent execution in motion, drawing worldwide attention to an exceptionally rare event.
