Christa Pike signed prison notice

This auction is for a signed prison fund raising notice from Tennessee murderer Christa Gail Pike. On 1/12/1995, Christa Pike, with accomplices Tadaryl Shipp and Shadolla Peterson, lured a fellow Knoxville Job Corps student to a secluded area where she was tortured and murdered. Christa Pike was 18-years-old at the time. The jealousy was the motive and the torture murder was riddled with Satanic overtones. At the time of her arrest Christa Pike was said to be in possession of a part of her victim's skull, presumably kept as some sort of trophy, and a copy of Dr. Anton Szandor LaVey's The Satanic Bible. Pike would be sentenced to death 3/22/1996 for her role in the crime, becoming the youngest woman condemned in the United States since the reinstatement of capital punishment. During her incarceration Christa Pike has been anything but a model prisoner. In 2001, Christa Pike and Lillelid Murder participant Natasha Cornett attempted to kill a fellow inmate, earning Christa Pike an additional conviction of attempted first degree murder. Natasha Cornett was not convicted in relation to the attack. Then, in 2012, an escape plan was foiled by a joint law enforcement investigation. Christa Pike was being aided in her plans to escape by Tennessee correctional officer Justin Heflin and a New Jersey man who would often visit her at the prison. Due to Christa Pike's very young age, seemingly innocent appearance, and the extreme violent nature of her crime, the case has been the subject of several true crime literary works and television media.
