Christa Pike's botched execution is a horrifying reminder of the cruelty & inhumanity of the death penalty.
State-sanctioned killing is barbaric and it's time we end this unjust punishment once & for all.

In a stunning twist of events, Tennessee failed to execute #ChristaPike tonight - a second botched execution (or attempt) this year.
The same physician who presided over the botched execution of Tony Carruthers earlier this year, was also involved in tonight's fiasco.

The Christa Pike torture/attempted murder worked EXACTLY as intended. TN is chockful of churches & "Christians" wearing crosses (jewelry and tattoo) who believe in the wonderfulness of the state torturing & murdering people regardless of guilt. This is Tennessee. Worked as intended. #deathpenalty

it didn't even occur to me that the government might try to execute someone a second time if they torture the person but fail to kill them during a first botched attempt. truly grotesque and a moral stain upon all involved.

“A lot of this execution — or attempted execution, whatever it was — happened when we could not see what was going on.”

I read a couple hundred death penalty cases for a case once and I think you’d all be shocked at how often this happens. The death penalty is one of the cruelest things in our system, an obvious violation of the 8th amendment cruel and unusual punishment clause, but we just love to kill.
two doses of lethal drugs and still alive. heartbreaking and barbaric
