Show Notes
Some murders are so horrific they live long in the memory. In 1995, Knoxville Tennessee, such a killing occurred. Victim and perpetrators were just teenagers, and the sadistic brutality of the crime caused a media sensation. It would only be after trial that the truth of the ringleader’s dysfunctional past would be revealed, dividing opinion across a nation. Should she pay the ultimate price in the electric chair, or should the courts show her clemency? This is what happens when nature and nurture create a cold-blooded killer. This is the case of Christa Pike.
