Tennessee prison chief resigns after Christa Pike's failed execution

Tennessee Correction Commissioner Frank Strada will resign this month following Wednesday's botched lethal injection of Christa Pike, 50, who survived two doses of pentobarbital and remains hospitalized. Gov. Bill Lee has asked former U.S. Attorney Ed Stanton to lead an independent review of the department's actions. Strada said his department followed protocol but that stepping aside was "in the best interest of Tennesseans." All scheduled executions in the state have been halted.
