Christa Gail Pike was the youngest female ever to be sentenced to death in the United States. Born March 10, 1976 she was 18 years old at the time she committed murder and 20 when she was sentenced to die by lethal injection.

Pike lived a troubled life growing up. She allegedly endured sexual abuse and was doing drugs with her mother before she had even hit her teen years. She had behavior issues including bipolar and dropped out of high school. In 1994 she joined the Job Corps in Knoxville, Tennessee, a government program aimed at helping troubled youth by offering vocational training and career skills. There, Pike met and fell for a young man named Tadaryl Shipp, one year her junior. Together they 'dabbled' in the occult and devil worship.
Pike became jealous of fellow Job Corp student Colleen Slemmer, then 19. She believed Slemmer was trying to 'steal' her boyfriend from her although friends of Slemmer deny the accusations, Pike was set on a vendetta and started harassing Slemmer. One day she had snuck into her dorm room and watched the victim sleep. It got so bad that days before the murder Slemmer had called her mother telling her she wanted to come home but her mother told her she couldn't due to signing a 2-year contract.

Crime scene photos involving celebrities are perhaps the most viewed by the general public for when the police lines are crossed in the homes or lives of these well-known and well-loved people, the public outpouring of interest, grief, and hell, even voyeurism, is immense. Photo: CBS Television/Stringer/Getty Images The OJ Simpson trial may have eclipsed the crime scene itself, but the photos of Nicole Brown are not for the faint of heart. Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman were murdered outside of Brown's home in 1994. Crime Scene Photos The Zodiac murdered five people between December of 1968 and October of 1969.I have posted the photos from those crime scenes on this page. I have done so for the specific purpose of reminding those who visit this site of the brutal nature of these crimes, and that the person responsible for committing them has yet to be.

Pike, Shipp and a friend named Shadolla Peterson, 18, came up with a plan to lure Slemmer to an isolated, abandoned steam plant close by on the University of Tennessee Campus. They choose the wooded area due to it being isolated.
On January 12, 1995, Pike, Shipp, Peterson, and Slemmer signed out of the dormitory and proceeded to the woods where Slemmer was told they wanted to make peace by offering her some marijuana. Upon arrival at the secluded location Slemmer started to become nervous and asked Pike if they were really planning on smoking some weed. Pike then turned on Slemmer and started to yell at her and attacked her. For the next 30 – 40 minutes she was taunted, beaten, and slashed, and a pentagram was carved in her chest with a box cutter. A meat cleaver was also used in the attack. Sometime during the torture Pike had said 'The bitch wont die' followed by 'I want to see her brains flow' and it was then that she lifted a large chunk of asphalt paving over Slemmer's head and proceeded to smash her skull until brain matter started flowing out of her head. Pike kept a piece of her victim's skull and began to show it off around the school and within 36 hours the three were arrested.

For some reasons, people are drawn and seem to gawk at dramatic, unpleasant and often gruesome sights; similar to the proverbial train wreck. Otherwise, why would police need to post the familiar yellow and black crime scene tape. I guess it is just human nature to be curious.
These days, forensic and crime scene dramas are popular on primetime television. Writers and producers are responsible for coming up with the 'next scenario' to keep viewers tuned in. Case and point that people love drama and gore. Several current, popular series come to mind, but none can compare to real life. You have probably heard the saying that, 'truth is stranger than fiction.'
Charles Manson was a twisted individual with an unmistakable face. He claimed to never have killed himself but had others act on his behalf. Helter Skelter had everyone going crazy!
The 70's was a culture of change and the mantra of many was to love your brother and to make love not war! There were some very disturbing things that happened during that decade that will go down in history. Apparently, not everyone got the memo!
Murder and crime scene details and photos from the 70's haunt some of us, still today!
David Berkowitz, better known as Son of Sam, was another killer that held the general population captive with fear with his killing spree. He left notes behind defying law enforcement to figure out who he was and giving clues about future murders. He always signed his letters, 'Son of Sam.'
Murderers and serial killers like these captured the nation's attention with some rather disturbing crimes. It was as if the perpetrators wanted to leave a calling card. The 70's was plagued with some of the most horrific crimes we've known to date.
You've got to wonder what law enforcement and detectives took away from these horrifying crime scenes.
The entire country was held captive by the fear of thinking that they, as individuals, might just be the next victim! To make things worse, police officers, detectives and other law enforcement personnel were tasked with responding, investigating and solving these heinous crimes. They are only human after all! No amount of training can prepare a person for some of the depravity that had to be dealt with.
Below you will see pictures from some of the most gnarly crime scenes from the 70's.
Don't drink the Kool-Aid!
Who could forget Jim Jones, the self-proclaimed leader of the people? He had countless followers believing that he was their savior. He led a group of loyal followers to Guyana to live in a compound he called, Jonestown. His sick and twisted new religion had seemingly rational people acting in irrational ways. He, himself, was the only person in the group who was permitted to have sex and anyone who went against this, or any other rules, were severely punished. The ultimate punishment came when a random welfare check led to the discovery of the depravity that was going on. 918 people were directed to drink from a giant vat of juice resulting in a mass suicide. Have you ever heard the saying, 'Don't drink the Kool-Aid!' Although this crime was classified as a mass suicide, it was at the direction of a sick mind.
The BTK Killer was an especially depraved serial murderer.
Possibly the only thing more disturbing than the crimes themselves is that the perpetrators lived among us and blended in for the most part. Remember the Bind, Torture, Kill serial killer? He was nicknamed the BTK Killer. In the picture above, the man to the left is the killer, looking quite normal, while the image to the right is just one of his victims. If not for the collection of Polaroid pictures he kept as souvenirs, he may never have been discovered.
The Zodiac murders of the 60's and 70's were never solved.
Real Crime Scene Investigation Photos
Another notorious serial killer was the Zodiac Killer. He carried out these heinous murders in Northern California and his victims were random. He taunted law enforcement with cryptic writings that had to be decoded. One of the writings was deciphered to read, 'I like killing people because it is so much fun.' He claimed to have been gathering slaves for the afterlife. If that doesn't make you skin crawl, nothing will. These murders remained unsolved to date.
Ted Bundy was known as, The Handsome Devil because he was so good looking and charming, by day.
John Wayne Gacy, The Hillside Strangler, Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer and many others were some dreadfully disturbing murders that emerged from the 70's. Maybe the most alarming was Dahmer who killed and cannibalized his victims… that's right; he ate them!
Crime solving television programs are no match for the real-life crime scenes and photographs that emerged from this era. Truth really is stranger than fiction!
