Given the choice between going to sleep and spending the rest of my life in a tiny stone room, I know which I'd choose

She should, regardless of the heinous crime committed, have the inhumane death sentence commuted. Tis the law.

Rest in Peace, Colleen, I'm sorry no one was able to help you when you needed it, angel.

The UK used to dispatch their condemned within a minute, no fuss no fan fair, yet America has to turn it into one big circus like everything they do.

The ICC should immediately issue arrest warrants for the prison warden and employees who assaulted Ms. Pike.

America is a basket case country that tortures its citizens plain and simple. And they have a criminal r@p!st pdf for a president. Why should we be surprised?

What they did last night and the subsequent media black out they’ve put in place is inexcusable and disgraceful.

Pike has never deserved freedom for what she did, but she didn’t deserve this.

All those saying she does, is what’s wrong with the world right now. You’re sick in the head to think she deserves it.

Utterly inhumane. Not only for Pike and her family, for Colleens too. The distress this has caused is immeasurable. Had they sentenced her to life with no parole 30 years ago, the families would not have had to go through any of this and they could have started healing decades ago.

Christa Pike and others like her are the product of our warped, self-absorbed, greedy society: she and others are simply the outflow, the detritus our extremely sick society spits out. The problem is not Christa Pike, it is the environment and way of life we, as a collective, have degenerated to.🙈🙉🙊🤑🤑🤑

We got rid of the death penalty in Britain, because some of the people that were killed were found to be innocent, this hasn’t stopped Murder in America if it was such a deterrent then there wouldn’t be any murders in any state in America, a country that takes lives in the pursuit of justice are no better than the perpetrators of the crime!
