Crime Talk with Scott Reisch

New developments in the Cornell 7 case lead today's Crime Talk, including newly released police interview video, Snapchat evidence, questions about what fraternity members knew, and growing pressure on Cornell University as former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates begins an independent review.
We also have a major update on Christa Pike, who is now awake and speaking after Tennessee's failed execution attempt — but according to a medical expert working with her legal team, she apparently does not remember the execution itself.
Also today:
• Chris Watts' parents break their silence and reveal a letter he wrote to his murdered family.
• The David Prevatte trial continues as the medical examiner testifies that 5-year-old Paitin Fields died from ligature strangulation.

• Legal History and the Legal Quote of the Day.
• Dumb Criminal: A TikTok couple accused of setting a vacant house on fire — while surveillance cameras were watching.
All defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.

New developments in three major cases on today's Crime Talk.
A judge has rejected Lindsay Clancy's latest attempt to obtain a required finding of not guilty following the mistrial, keeping the criminal case against her alive as questions continue over whether prosecutors will pursue a second trial.
In Tennessee, Christa Pike remains in critical condition following the state's unsuccessful attempt to carry out her execution. The incident has now triggered an investigation, a temporary halt to executions in Tennessee and a major new legal question: could the state eventually try again?
Caleb Flynn was also back in court following his guilty verdict as he prepares for sentencing Monday. We break down what happened at the latest hearing, what penalties he could face and what comes next with his expected appeal.

Christa Pike survived Tennessee's attempt to execute her by lethal injection after receiving both doses authorized under the state's execution protocol.
Pike, the only woman on Tennessee's death row, was scheduled to be executed for the 1995 murder of Colleen Slemmer. But after the state administered pentobarbital twice, Pike remained alive and was eventually transported to a hospital.
Governor Bill Lee has now halted Tennessee's remaining executions for 2026 and ordered an independent review into what went wrong.
The case raises a major legal question: Can Tennessee attempt to execute Christa Pike again, or would another attempt violate the Eighth Amendment's prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment?
Scott Reisch breaks down what happened inside the execution chamber, what Tennessee's protocol allows, and what could happen next.
