La jueza ordena preservar las pruebas de la ejecución fallida

Una jueza de Tennessee, en Estados Unidos, ordenó conservar todas las pruebas relacionadas con la ejecución fallida de Christa Pike, incluidos los objetos de la sala de ejecución, como las vías intravenosas y las jeringas. Pike, condenada a muerte por el asesinato de Colleen Slemmer en 1995, sobrevivió a dos inyecciones letales el 30 de septiembre y sigue hospitalizada recibiendo atención médica crítica, según su abogado, Randy Spivey.

A judge in the US state of Tennessee has ruled officials must preserve all evidence related to the failed execution of Christa Pike. Judge Myles ordered that "anything that was in the actual room needs to be preserved and maintained," including IV lines and syringes, as well as waste, like packaging, inserts, and labels. She also advised the state to take "special care" not to misplace or accidentally delete any information that may be pertinent to the case. Pike, who was sentenced to death after murdering Colleen Slemmer with her then-boyfriend in 1995, survived two lethal injections on 30 September. Her Lawyer Randy Spivey says he was told Pike was brain dead on Monday, and it was expected that she would have her life support machine turned off on Tuesday, but instead she woke up and began speaking. Pike remains in hospital, where she is receiving critical medical care and is being restrained at her hands and feet.
