Christa Pike, a convicted teenage killer, is due for execution in only 19 days. Tennessee officials are picking official media witnesses for the event. The state issued a media advisory naming Pike as inmate number 261368. News.com.au covered the pending execution. An opinion piece by Stephen Cooper in the Montgomery Advertiser argues the case requires "a pound of flesh" over a portion of skull. Officials have withheld further particulars. The state has yet to name the selected witnesses. The execution is scheduled to proceed as scheduled.
