Christa Pike, aged 50, is scheduled to be executed in Tennessee, USA, on 30 September 2026. She was convicted in 1996 of a 1995 murder committed when she was 18, barely out of a childhood in which she endured r**e, sexual and physical violence, abuse and neglect.

The state failed to protect her as a child despite having knowledge of what she was facing. Her court-appointed lawyers then failed her at her trial, presenting little of the mitigating evidence of this abuse or its psychological consequences.

We urge the governor to stop this ex*****on and grant clemency.
