Christa Pike is talking in full sentences, sending messages after botched execution

I remember she was taken to the hospital.

She regained consciousness.

She started walking again.

Well, now she's back at the women's prison, and there is new information that has just come out on her condition.

TMZ is reporting she is now speaking in full sentences does not come as a huge surprise.

If you watch my past episodes, the doctors I've interviewed expected she would likely make a full recovery.

Now, we don't know if that's the case, but we know she's speaking in full sentences.

A few weeks ago, I showed you the screenshot of her messaging people from the prison on her iPad.

So she was obviously with it enough to do that.

TMZ says that she is making significant strides in her recovery, but doctors are still trying to determine the extent of any lasting psychological and cognitive damage, according to her attorneys.

An attorney for Krista Pike told TMZ that she's continuing to improve physically.

She's now able to walk more on her own.

The attorney says Krista's speech has also improved and she's now able to communicate more and actually talk in full sentences, as I said.

So it's a pretty significant update.

She's obviously doing better health wise.

Her long term prognosis And whether this is going to impact her cognitively in some way, we still don't know officially.

That is important.

And remember, it's important because if this impacted her mentally, that could mean the state cannot try to execute her again.

There was supposed to be a hearing on Friday, which I was very, very interested in because it was going to be the first time that we saw Krista Pike since all of this happened.

But based on the court records that I've been looking at, the hearing looks like it's been canceled.

Pike's defense attorneys had asked the hearing to be postponed several months.

so that they could continue to evaluate her mental state and condition after the botched execution.

So they were like, we're not ready for this hearing.

And the prosecution agreed in a way, said that they would agree to postpone things by a month.

So it seems like it is getting postponed, which again, I was interested in it just because I wanted to see Krista Pike.
