Supreme Court clears execution of Christa Pike

Original: Supreme Court allows execution of Christa Pike to go forward

The US Supreme Court has declined to block the execution of Christa Pike, allowing the process to move forward. Pike, convicted of a 1995 murder in Tennessee, is the only woman on that state's death row. The ruling ends a delay in her case, though further appeals could still affect the final schedule.

Why now: Pike's case has drawn long-running public attention as a rare death sentence for a woman, and the court's decision marks a major development.
