Description

49 year old Christa Gail Pike was just 18 when she murdered fellow teenage girl, Colleen Slemmer 30 years ago. If Tennessee follows through on Pike’s scheduled execution date next September, Pike will become the 19th woman in modern U.S. history to pay for her crime with her life. Amy and T.J. explain Pike’s horrific crime, give voice to the case to save her life, and explain just how and why it’s so rare for women to face the death penalty.
