@really-mad.bsky.social

Where is the #Chivalry? We can allow 7 men to (r)ape and abuse a young lady for hours, traumatizing her forever, and yet we execute a woman who was (r)aped and abused for years and years? #ChristaPike #Cornell #DeathPenalty #Executions

#peinedemort #EtatsUnis Après 30 ans d'incarcération pour un meurtre commis à l’âge de 18 ans, #ChristaPike, victime de violences sexuelles dans son enfance, une femme aujourd’hui décrite comme bienveillante et protectrice, se prépare à etre exécutée.

Mais quelle inhumanité.

Time running out for Tennessee killer Christa Pike who says she's too damaged for death row

Lawyers for Pike, who killed a fellow student in 1995, say she should get clemency and would not be sentenced to death if the crime happened today.

"If they let her be executed, then what it tells us is that the death penalty in this country is just a joke. It's not for the worst of the worst. It is for the people who receive the worst legal representation and who are the most damaged and vulnerable."

Convicted murderer Christa Pike is scheduled to be murdered by the State of Tennessee on Wednesday. Murder is still murder even if it’s sanctioned by the state.
