Drug Inspection Dispute
Tennessee is asking a judge to prevent Christa Pike’s attorneys from inspecting or testing leftover pentobarbital from her failed September execution, arguing that vial labels could expose the state’s supplier and jeopardize access to lethal-injection drugs. Pike’s lawyers say examining how the drug was labeled and stored is essential to determine why the execution failed; Pike survived two doses and suffered burns and blistering. The dispute follows a court order to preserve evidence related to the execution attempt.
