Jailhouse interview with convicted murderer Tadaryl Shipp: Music, recent parole hearing, peer mentorship & college in prison

Christa Pike is an American woman convicted of a notorious 1995 murder in Tennessee. At 18, she became the youngest woman on death row in the United States. Pike, along with fellow Job Corps students, lured Colleen Slemmer to an isolated location where Pike carried out a prolonged and especially violent attack. The case gained widespread attention due to the brutality involved, including testimony that Pike kept a portion of the victim’s skull. She was ultimately convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to death, where she remains on Tennessee’s death row.


Tadaryl Shipp and Shadolla Peterson were Pike’s co-defendants in the case. Both were present during the murder and were convicted for their roles, though they were considered less directly responsible for the killing itself. Shipp received a life sentence, while Peterson was convicted of being an accessory after the fact and received a significantly lighter sentence. Their involvement, along with Pike’s central role, made the case one of the most disturbing and widely discussed crimes connected to the Job Corps program.

Please note: From 11:10-12:04 Shipp played a snippet of an instrumental he produced but it wasn't picked up due to a noise cancellation setting that was enabled, it removed it as 'background noise'.
