On September 30, the United States Supreme Court ruled in favor of Tennessee, clearing the path for the state to carry out its first execution of a woman in two centuries. The high court's decision dissolved a last-minute stay that had temporarily halted the legal proceedings following hours of intense judicial maneuvering through the court system.
The impending execution involves Christa Pike, who faces a lethal injection for the murder of a schoolmate committed three decades ago when she was 18 years old.
