克里斯塔·派克的律师称，在上周于美国田纳西州失败的处决尝试之后，她实现了“深刻”的转机。
Christa Pike has made a "profound" turnaround after last week's botched attempt to execute her in the US state of Tennessee, her lawyers say.
50岁的派克于1995年与当时的男友共同谋杀了科琳·斯莱默，随后被判处死刑。9月30日，她在接受两次戊巴比妥药物注射后幸存下来，并被送往医院，当时情况危急。
Pike, 50, was sentenced to death after murdering Colleen Slemmer with her then-boyfriend in 1995. She survived two injections of the drug pentobarbital on 30 September and was taken to hospital in a critical condition.
派克的律师在周四的一份声明中称，她的康复过程“令人惊叹”，并表示她已能在他人协助下行走，并且能够进食。他们还提到，她在处决尝试中严重受伤的手臂也恢复了一些活动能力。声明称：“医生们对她的身体康复感到鼓舞。”
In a statement on Thursday, Pike's lawyers described her recovery as "remarkable" and said she is able to walk with assistance and is eating. She has also regained some movement in her arms, which were badly injured during the attempted execution, they said. "Physicians are encouraged by her physical recovery," the statement said.
此案目前进入了前所未有的领域，因为派克据信是历史上唯一在致命注射处决尝试中幸存下来的人。
The case is now in uncharted territory as Pike is believed to be the only person to have survived an execution attempt by lethal injection.
她的法律团队表示：“克里斯塔正在应对因侥幸存活于一次失败的处决而带来的深刻心理创伤，包括当时所经历的恐惧、痛苦，以及认为自己即将死亡的无助与不确定。”
"Christa is dealing with the profound psychological trauma of having survived a failed execution, including the terror, pain and uncertainty of believing she was about to die," her legal team said.
派克的律师称，他们尚不清楚这次处决尝试给她带来的全部情感和心理影响，也不清楚她需要多长时间才能完全康复。
Pike's lawyers said they do not know the full emotional and psychological toll of the execution attempt or how long it will take her to recover.
他们补充说，尽管她仍在努力消化所发生的一切，但她“持续表达对他人的关心，尤其是对受害者科琳·斯莱默家人的关心”。
They added that while she struggles to process what happened, she "continues to express concern for others, particularly the family of her victim Colleen Slemmer".
斯莱默的母亲曾是最力主处决派克的人之一，她将这次失败的处决称为一场“混乱”。
Slemmer's mother, who was among those pushing for Pike to be put to death, has branded the failed execution a "mess".
在斯莱默遇害时，派克的男友塔达里尔·希普因犯罪时尚未达到法定成年年龄而免于死刑。他目前仍在监狱中。
Pike's boyfriend at the time of Slemmer's murder, Tadaryl Shipp, was spared the death penalty because he was not legally an adult when the crime was committed.
当时，派克18岁，希普17岁。他们在一家为低收入年轻人设立的职业培训营中认识了19岁的斯莱默，随后对其施暴、折磨并杀害。
He remains in prison. Pike was 18 and Shipp was 17 when they beat, tortured and killed 19-year-old Slemmer, whom they had met at a job training camp for low-income young people.
法院已命令相关官员保留与此次失败处决有关的所有证据，这或将为未来对州政府提起诉讼奠定基础。
A court has ordered officials to preserve all evidence related to the failed execution, which could lay the groundwork for a future lawsuit against the state.
周三，法官I'Ashea Myles下令称，“房间内实际存在的所有物品都必须被保存和妥善保管”，其中包括输液管、注射器以及包装、内衬和标签等废弃物。
On Wednesday, Judge I'Ashea Myles ordered that "anything that was in the actual room needs to be preserved and maintained," including IV lines and syringes, as well as waste, such as packaging, inserts and labels.
法官还要求提供派克在失败处决前后以及执行过程中的心理状况记录。
The judge also demanded documentation on Pike's psychological condition before, during and after the failed execution.
她提醒州政府要“特别小心”，避免遗失或意外删除任何可能与本案相关的信息。
She advised the state to take "special care" not to misplace or accidentally delete any information that may be pertinent to the case.
田纳西州州长比尔·李已下令暂停今年余下所有处决，并表示他想要了解究竟出了什么问题。派克的律师们呼吁州长将她的刑罚减为无期徒刑且不得假释。支持死刑的人士则提议采用其他方法执行她的死刑。
Tennessee Governor Bill Lee has ordered a pause on all executions for the rest of the year and said he wants answers about what went wrong. Pike's lawyers have called on the governor to downgrade Pike's punishment to life in prison without parole. Proponents of capital punishment have suggested using a different method to put her to death.
