Pretty Lies And Alibis

Show Notes

In this video, I’m breaking down the case of Christa Pike, the 1996 murder of 19-year-old Colleen Slemmer, Pike’s trial and decades of appeals, and the events surrounding her scheduled execution in Tennessee. We’ll go through the execution timeline, what media witnesses reported seeing and hearing inside the observation room, the unexpected delays and complications, and the emergency legal action that unfolded as the process continued. As always, we’ll stick to the facts and walk through the timeline together.
