The clock is running out. In Tennessee, the state prepares to kill the woman it once called a “gleeful” teen monster. Her victim’s family calls it justice. Her lawyers call it a second tragedy. Torture, a carved pentagram, a stolen skull. Abuse, psychosis, and a broken child behind the monster mask. As September 30, 202…
As the execution date approaches, the case has become less a simple question of guilt and more a mirror held up to Tennessee itself. No one disputes the savagery of Colleen Slemmer’s murder, or the lifelong grief carried by her family. For them, the looming execution is a long-promised reckoning, the only measure that feels proportionate to the horror of what was done.
But after decades behind bars, Christa Pike is no longer the 18-year-old who laughed through police interviews. Prison records, mental health evaluations, and years of quiet, uneventful confinement suggest a woman transformed by age, treatment, and time.
The state insists that some crimes demand the ultimate punishment, regardless of who the condemned has become. Her defenders argue that killing a deeply damaged, medicated middle-aged woman for what a traumatized teenager did is not justice, but a ritualized replay of violence—sanitized, scheduled, and carried out in our name.
