Episode 103: Lil Devil Christa Pike the Youngest Woman on Death Row

Christa Pike is the youngest woman ever put on death row in the United States.

She was a wannabe devil worshipper, who, with her boyfriend Tadaryl Shipp, carved a pentagram into fellow Job Corps student Colleen Slemmer’s chest before caving her head in with a rock in a sacrifice to the devil.

She has been called evil and a monster, but in many ways she was just what she looked like: a traumatized and lost little girl.
