- Christina Marie Riggs was a murderer executed in Arkansas by lethal injection. She was convicted of the November 4, 1997 murder of her two preschool-aged children, Justin and Shelby Alexis Riggs, in their beds at the family's Sherwood, Arkansas home. She attempted to murdered her children by giving them undiluted Potassium Chloride just after giving them Elavil to sedate them. The potassium chloride was not diluted properly and it burned her son's veins, causing Justin terrible pain but not death. She eventually smothered him along with her daughter to death with a pillow because of the potassium chloride was ineffective. Coincidentally, she was executed with a potassium chloride injection, the same substance with which she attempted to kill her children.
