사법 · Failed executionTennessee failed execution: Christa Pike describes constant pain, seeks life sentence작성 2026년 10월 30일 오후 2:23 UTC시청방송 전문0:07Krista Pike describes constant pain after surviving two lethal injections.0:10Her lawyers want her death sentence reduced to life imprisonment.0:13While Tennessee's governor expects it to stay in place, whether she will recover0:17under that same death sentence is still unresolved.0:19On October8, we reported that Pike had awakened and begun speaking six days after0:24the attempt.0:25She was still seriously ill and unable to move either arm.0:28Now, in her first public statement, she describes continuing pain and difficulty0:32speaking.0:32Pike, who's fifty, survived two doses of pentabarbital, the execution drug, on0:37September thirty.0:37The injections left her critically ill.0:39She was taken to hospital and later returned to prison.0:42Her attorneys released her statement on Friday, October thirty, a month after the0:45execution attempt.0:46Pike dictated the statement from the infirmary at the Deborah K.0:49Johnson Rehabilitation Center.0:51She said she entered the execution chamber prepared to die in peace, then woke alone0:55and confused in a hospital bed.0:56She said she'd never contemplated a life beyond her execution date.0:59Now she describes pain in her arms, hands and throat, along with emotional1:03suffering.1:04Her lawyers had earlier described pneumonia.1:06Substantial swelling in her arms and an inability to swallow.1:09Pike said, There hasn't been a moment since that night when I haven't been in pain.1:13She also described pain beyond her physical injuries, saying, There is pain in my1:18mind and in my soul.1:19Pike says she's recovering and getting stronger, but she adds, But healing is not1:23the same as being okay.1:24She thanked the medical workers who saved her life and the people who showed her1:28kindness.1:28The struggle she describes follows unanswered questions about how emergency help1:32reached her.1:33On October13 , we reported roughly half an hour of confusion over whether an1:37ambulance request was genuine.1:39A caller described an unconscious prisoner breathing slowly and with difficulty.1:43Dispatch was subsequently told the report was false and medical help wasn't needed.1:47A judge had already ordered Tennessee officials to preserve evidence from the1:50execution attempt.1:51Davidson County Chancellor Ishea Miles issued that order on October seventh.1:55The emergency call sequence adds to the demand for an explanation, but the cause of2:00the failed execution still hasn't been explained.2:02Governor Bill Lee expects Pike's death sentence to continue.2:05This week, he said.2:06I suspect her sentence will be the same as before unless determined otherwise by the2:10courts.2:11Her attorneys are asking him to commute it to life imprisonment.2:14Lee has called for an investigation into the failed execution.2:17He's also postponed Tennessee's other lethal injection scheduled for this year.2:20Pike's death sentence remains in place, and Lee hasn't announced a final decision on2:24her lawyer's request.2:26T here is no announced date for another execution attempt.2:29Pike has returned to prison, although the exact date she left hospital is unclear.2:33Her statement gives her own account of recovery.2:36Lee hasn't said when investigative findings will be released or whether the full2:39findings will be made public.2:41Colleen Slemmer was nineteen when Pike and her then boyfriend to Darrell Shipbeat2:45tortured and killed her in one thousand nine hundred and ninety-five.2:48The killing included a stabbing.2:50They'd met at a job training camp for low-income young people.2:54Pike was eighteen.2:55She's now spent about thirty years in prison.2:57Ship was legally a juvenile when they killed Slemmer, so he was spared the death3:01penalty.3:01He remains imprisoned.3:02Pike blamed incompetence for the execution attempt and said she continues to think3:06about her victim's family and their pain and loss.3:08Pike says she doesn't know why she survived or what comes next.3:11Her request for life imprisonment remains unresolved while the state investigates3:15the attempt to execute her.3:16She described her immediate task this way: For now I am trying to heal, one day at a3:21time.기사 읽기스토리
