165: Pervis Payne- Could an Innocent Man be Executed in TN?

On Saturday June 27, 1987 Charisse Christopher and her 2 year old daughter Lacie were stabbed to death in their upstairs apartment in Millington, TN. Her 3 year old son Nicholas was also attacked, but fortunately survived. Shortly after, 19-year old Pervis Payne was arrested and convicted of 2 murders and attempted murder and is currently serving his death sentence in TN. Was Pervis in a drug fueled rage that caused him to brutally murder Charisse and Lacie or was he wrongfully convicted?
