美国田纳西州死刑犯克里斯塔·派克在9月30日的致命注射执行中存活，目前正在康复中1。现年50岁的派克因1995年与男友共同谋杀科琳·斯莱米尔而被判死刑1。执行中两次注射戊巴比妥后，派克被送入医院1，已能在扶助下行走和进食，手臂恢复了部分活动能力1。派克被认为是唯一存活过致命注射执行的人，该案已进入法律未知领域1。
派克的律师已要求将其改判终身监禁（不得假释）1。法官I'Ashea Myles已下令保留所有执行相关证据1。田纳西州州长比尔·李随后下令暂停今年剩余所有执行1。派克的前男友塔达瑞尔·希普当时仅17岁，因未达法定成年年龄而免死，目前仍在狱中服刑1。
Christa Pike, a 50-year-old death row inmate in Tennessee, has survived a botched lethal injection execution and is making what her lawyers describe as a "profound" health recovery.1 Pike was convicted in 1995 for the murder of Colleen Slemmer, which she committed alongside her then-boyfriend.1 During the execution on September 30th, she received two injections of pentobarbital but survived the procedure and was subsequently hospitalized.1
According to her legal team, Pike has regained considerable physical function in the weeks following the failed execution.1 She is now able to walk with assistance, feed herself, and has recovered partial movement in her arms.1 The case has entered uncharted legal territory, as Pike is believed to be the only person to have survived a lethal injection execution in the United States.1 Tennessee Governor Bill Lee has ordered a suspension of all remaining executions scheduled for the year.1 Judge I'Ashea Myles has mandated the preservation of all evidence related to the execution.1
Pike's attorneys have petitioned for her sentence to be commuted to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.1 Her co-defendant in the original crime, Tadaryl Shipp, was 17 years old at the time of the murder and avoided capital punishment due to his age; he remains incarcerated.1
