Christa Pike released from hospital after surviving botched execution

Christa Pike, a 50-year-old convicted of a 1995 classmate murder, has been released from the hospital and returned to prison. This follows her survival of a botched execution attempt late last month. Pike survived the administration of two doses of the drug pentobarbital. The release from medical care occurred more than a week after the failed lethal injection process, marking her return to incarceration after surviving the state's attempt to carry out her death sentence.
