Christa Pike was supposed to be executed on September 30 at a Tennessee prison for the 1995 murder of a fellow student. But after receiving two supposedly lethal doses of pentobarbital, the 50-year-old survived. A week later, she remains hospitalized in Nashville. Her attorneys say she is now conscious and able to speak, though she continues to require medical care and faces a lengthy and uncertain recovery.

Sometimes people count their chickens before they hatch. That’s what happened to the regional premier of Madrid, Isabel Díaz Ayuso, in June 2022 during one of her trips to Miami, where she posed beside a large bear sculpture that she said would end up on a public roundabout in the southern Florida city. Meant to represent Madrid, the large, candy-like bear has instead been parked in the hallway of a well-known Miami restaurant, where it serves as a decorative item.

Christa Pike, 50, has been hospitalized for almost a week after receiving two injections that allegedly contained lethal pentobarbital. On Tuesday, her lawyers said she had regained consciousness and speech, though her prognosis remains uncertain. The state of Tennessee had attempted to execute her for the 1995 murder of a fellow student, but Pike survived and was taken to hospital. If she stabilizes and is discharged, the state could send her back to death row and try to execute her again.

Salvamento Marítimo ha movilizado durante la madrugada de este miércoles, 16 de septiembre, a las embarcaciones 'Al-Nair' y 'Acrux' para el rescate de migrantes al noreste de Lanzarote.

El Gobierno construirá en los próximos meses dos Centros de Atención Temporal de Extranjeros (CATE) permanentes en Ceuta y Melilla, con 800 plazas cada uno, para reforzar la capacidad de identificar y realizar el triaje de los inmigrantes que entren de forma irregular por las dos ciudades autónomas. El ministro del Interior, Fernando Grande-Marlaska, abordará estos proyectos este jueves con el comisario europeo de Interior y Migración, Magnus Brunner, que viajará a Madrid para tratar la delicada situación que vive Ceuta tras la entrada de 80.000 personas los días 30 y 31 de julio.

El militar de la Armada que la OTAN apartó de sus funciones en la vigilancia de la flota fantasma rusa pasó el preceptivo filtro de seguridad del Centro Nacional de Inteligencia (CNI) y al menos dos evaluaciones internas de la Alianza, explican fuentes militares españolas. Y, si bien no ocultó a sus compañeros su relación con una mujer de origen ruso, tampoco lo declaró al mando como un detalle que afectara a su perfil.

Salvamento Marítimo busca este lunes, 14 de septiembre, una patera con alrededor de un centenar de migrantes a unas 80 millas náuticas (148 kilómetros) al noreste de Lanzarote.

La muerte de un joven de 24 años, vecino de Arrecife, durante las fiestas de Los Dolores, patrona de Lanzarote, ha sido investigada por la Policía Judicial de la Guardia Civil. El cuerpo fue localizado en la tarde del domingo, 13 de septiembre, en Mancha Blanca, en el municipio de Tinajo, mientras se desarrollaban los actos festivos.
