Christa Pike set to be first woman executed in Tennessee in 200 years

Christa Pike is scheduled to become the first woman executed in Tennessee in two centuries, in a case that has drawn renewed attention to her upcoming execution. Her defence team argues she should also be seen as a victim, complicating the public conversation around her guilt and sentence. Coverage is focusing on both the historic nature of the execution and the contested claims about her circumstances.
Why now: Her impending execution would be a historic first for Tennessee in 200 years, and her defence's victimhood claims are fuelling debate.
