SocietyChrista Pike unconscious after botched execution attempt, attorneys say

Attorneys for Christa Pike say she is unconscious and on a ventilator at a Nashville hospital after a failed lethal-injection attempt in Tennessee. They believe improperly placed IV lines caused pentobarbital to enter her body rather than her bloodstream. Governor Bill Lee paused the execution pending a third-party review.
