UN urges halt to execution attempts against Christa Pike
Original: UN rights chief calls for no further execution attempts against Christa Pike
The UN human rights chief has called for no further attempts to execute Christa Pike, an American woman on death row in Tennessee. Pike, convicted of a 1995 murder, has been the only woman on the state's death row, and the UN appeal adds international pressure to debates over her case and the use of the death penalty.
Why now: The UN's intervention has renewed public attention to a high-profile death penalty case in the United States.
