A federal court has stayed the execution of Christa Pike…for now.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit issued an order staying Pike’s execution “until further order of this court.” Her attorneys have confirmed the stay.

Just a few minutes ago, TADP gathered online with 100 others for a prayer vigil for all victims of violence, including Colleen Slemmer and Christa Pike. This unexpected stay provided us with a welcome sense of hope during the vigil, even as we remembered and grieved lives lost and our State’s continued reliance on a failed death penalty system.

TAKE ACTION: In light of Christa Pike’s stay of execution from the federal court, we have an opportunity to reach out one more time to ask Governor Lee to be merciful and grant her clemency.
