Christa Pike is awake after botched execution attempt

Christa Pike, the death-row inmate who survived a botched attempt to execute her in the state of Tennessee, is now conscious again in hospital, according to her lawyers. She was administered two lethal injections last Wednesday but survived the proceedure and was transferred to a hospital in Nashville.
