クリスタ・パイク、失敗に終わった死刑執行後「怒りと混乱」 弁護士が発言 | BBC News

BBCニュースが、先週の失敗に終わった死刑執行から生還した50歳の死刑囚クリスタ・パイクさんについて報じた動画です。緊急の裁判審理の後、裁判所は州に対し、点滴やシリンジなどの物的証拠、通信記録、監視映像の保全を命じました。弁護団は、証拠の保全は長い法的手続きの第一歩にすぎず、透明性のために州の説明をそのまま受け入れるべきではないと述べています。回復には長い時間がかかる見込みで、腕の機能が戻るかどうかは不明とされています。

Following an emergency court hearing on Wednesday, Christa Pike’s lawyers said preserving evidence from her failed execution was just the first step in a long legal battle after the 50-year-old death row inmate survived an execution attempt last week. The judge ordered the state to preserve a broad range of physical evidence such as IVs and syringes – as well as all communications and surveillance video. Her lawyers said it was necessary for transparency – and that the public should not simply take the state’s word about what happened. The night before Pike woke up and began speaking, her lawyers said they believed she was brain dead and were told life support would be removed the next day. She woke up "angry and confused", they said, asking "where am I?". Her recovery, they added, will be a long road. It’s unclear if she’ll regain function of her arms which they say are extremely swollen.
