Tennessee's Execution Reviewer Already Told Them What Was Wrong — They Didn't Listen

The same person who reviewed Tennessee's execution procedures in 2022 is now reviewing Christa Pike's failed execution. The state ignored his recommendations then. Tony Brueski and Robin Dreeke examine whether anything changes this time. Corrections Commissioner Frank Strada resigned after Pike survived two doses of pentobarbital on September 30th. Strada oversaw failed executions in Arizona before Lee brought him to Tennessee. Pike is dictating a statement from the infirmary because she cannot write. She says the pain hasn't stopped. Lee paused executions through his remaining term. The review carries no public deadline. Lee leaves office in January. Pike's lawyers argue a second attempt is unconstitutional. Colleen Slemmer's family has no resolution.
