The Tennessee inmate who received two lethal doses and did not die has been discharged

Christa Pike, a womanfrom Tennessee who didn't die 10 days ago with two lethal doses, has been discharged fromNashville Hospital.

According to sources, the woman has been taken back to Debra K. Johnson Prison in Nashville, where she will receive health care.

Due to the failure of the execution, the 50-year-old woman is bleeding in one of her arms, suffering from pneumonia and unable to swallow it. 

In the words of the defence counsel, the woman is "very grateful for the attention she received from emergency services and medical personnel in this exceptional situation." 

This is the first time a prisoner has survived a lethal dose, so from now on it's a sight.

Given what happened with the pikes, Tennessee Governor Bill Lee has suspended the remaining executions scheduled for 2026. The southern state has killed 17 prisoners since 1977, when the death penalty was reinstated in the United States.

Meanwhile, a court in Nashville has ordered the Tennessee authorities to retain all evidence concerning the execution and to file a complaint against that state. 

According to Pike's defense, the woman was "screaming, sobbing, and panting" while the dose was applied to her, using at least seven needles to administer the dose, one of which "was taken out completely tilted, at a 90 degree angle."
