355: Christa Pike- Youngest Woman on Death Row in TN

Killer Queens: A True Crime Podcast

On Jan 13th, 1995 in Knoxville, TN a battered body, nude from the waist up, was found in a grizzly scene. The victim had been tortured, murdered and her skull crushed. But that's not all- she had pentagrams carved into her forehead and chest. The investigation led police to a young woman named Christa Pike- who looked innocent and even "angelic," but was pure evil. Let's take a trip down memory lane and explore one of the most shocking cases of that era. It's a gripping tale of troubled lives, a heartbreaking murder, and a courtroom drama that could have been straight out of a Law & Order rerun.
