SocietyChrista Pike unconscious and on ventilator after botched execution, lawyers say

Christa Pike is unconscious and critically ill on a ventilator after a failed execution attempt in Tennessee, according to her lawyers. They allege that faulty IV lines caused two doses of pentobarbital to enter her body improperly. Governor Bill Lee has suspended executions in the state for the rest of the year while the incident is investigated.
