Pike survived a lethal injection execution on Wednesday. She was sentenced to death for the 1995 killing of her classmate, Colleen Slemmer.

Christa Pike, the woman who survived an execution attempt in Tennessee earlier this week, is on a ventilator as she receives care in the hospital, her lawyers said in a new statement Friday.

“Christa remains critically ill and is receiving medical care for the devastating effects of Wednesday night’s events,” the lawyers’ statement said. “She is critically ill, unconscious, intubated and receiving breathing assistance through a ventilator.”

The statement said she is being treated for “the serious effects of the pentobarbital administered during the execution attempt, including significant injuries to both arms.”

    Again; it is not possible to completely exclude the potential of them being innocent. That is literally beyond the wit of man.

        Yes, it is.
        You’re not being down voted by idiots. You’re being down voted by people who have learned how logic works. Maybe you could, too? It takes minutes/hours.

          You claim to be applying logic yet failing to do so even at this one query.

          No, it’s not impossible to establish guilt without doubt. It has happened many times, and will happen with forensic sciences advancing. You claiming repeatedly that this statement is somehow false, does not make it so.

            I’ve also explained how it is false. I can only explain it to you; I can’t understand it for you. Good luck mate.

              It’s false because it’s false

              I already explained how it’s false.

              Buddy, you better not lecture others about logic when your reasoning is as circular as your family tree.
