Christa Pike's execution in the United States went wrong, prompting a scathing criticism from the UN human rights chief, who denounced the handling of the process. Pike, the only woman on death row in Tennessee, was convicted of the 1995 murder of a fellow student. The episode has renewed debate in the US over the reliability of lethal injection methods and the ethics of capital punishment.
Why now: A botched execution drawing condemnation from the UN human rights office has reignited international debate over US capital punishment.
