So my thinking here is this: she was sentenced to death, she received her punishment (failed execution), sentence can be considered complete?

I dont know much about US/Tennessee law but it would seem that she is in uncharted territory - having survived execution - and is a bit of a headache for the legal system? Are there any other cases like this and what happened?

My thinking is very liberal/European (I dont support capital punishment anyway) but providing she is no longer a risk to society - just release her. If it can be proved she is a risk, transfer her to a low security prison?

FYI: Christa Pike

    unfortunately we don’t have any facilities to be fair to anyone convicted of crime that would be appropriated and we lack the public healthcare but in a sane society. She would be put in a hospital and get care till she was well enough to be moved to psychiatric facility.
