Why was the execution of Tennessee death row inmate Christa Pike halted in Nashville?
A federal appeals court issued a "short stay of execution" just before 9am CDT on Wednesday to allow for the consideration of an ongoing legal battle between Pike's attorneys and the state. Two members of a three-judge panel backed the order, while the third judge characterized the legal fight as a "last-ditch meritless effort to delay a lawful execution."
