Christa Pike's execution stayed

The execution of Tennessee inmate Christa Pike was halted an hour before it was scheduled to occur, as the Sixth Circuit Appeals court requested more time to consider her case. Pike, convicted in 1996 of the murder of a fellow teen, was awaiting her first possible execution in over 200 years in Tennessee, but her legal team argued that her age at the time of the crime and claims of prior sexual abuse should influence her sentencing. The US Supreme Court had previously denied a request to delay her execution, and her case continues to involve legal debates over her mental capacity and past abuse claims.
