Tennessee's death row, was convicted in the 1995 torture death of
fellow Knoxville Job Corps student Colleen Slemmer, 19. She and two

University of Tennessee agricultural campus. For the next 30 minutes
to an hour, Slemmer begged for her life while she was taunted and
beaten, trial testimony showed. Her throat was repeatedly slashed. A
pentagram was carved on her chest. Her skull was bashed in with a
rock, and Pike kept a piece of it as a trophy, testimony revealed.
