Supreme Court Clears Way for Christa Pike Execution

Original: Supreme Court lifts stay blocking Christa Pike execution

The US Supreme Court has lifted a stay that was blocking the execution of Christa Pike, allowing the state to move forward with her death sentence. Pike was convicted of a 1995 murder in Tennessee and has spent decades on death row, making her case one of the longest-running capital cases involving a woman in the United States.

Why now: The Supreme Court's decision removes a major legal barrier to an execution, a significant development in a long-running death penalty case.
