New details have emerged about the condition of an American woman who survived the execution.

Prisoner Krista Pike, who survived her execution in the United States, regained consciousness. This was reported by the WSMV channel with reference to the American woman’s lawyers.

Pike “is conscious, speaking and continues to receive medical care,” the report states.

In 1995, an American woman and her companion lured 19-year-old Colleen Slemmer to a secluded place, tortured and then killed. According to investigators, Pike feared that the girl was laying claim to her boyfriend.

Pike was executed by lethal injection on Wednesday, September 30th. The inmate was set to become the first woman to be executed in Tennessee in more than 200 years, but after two failed attempts to administer the drug, she was hospitalized.
