In a bizarre twist of events, a woman who became notorious for a chilling crime committed during her childhood has once again captured the attention of authorities. Morgan Geyser, who was involved in the infamous Slender Man stabbing case, has reportedly fled a group home after removing her Department of Corrections monitoring bracelet. Police have confirmed that her last known location was a residential neighborhood in Wisconsin, where she was seen with an adult acquaintance around 8 PM on Saturday.
This startling development comes over a decade after Geyser and Anissa Weier, both 12 years old at the time, orchestrated a gruesome attack on their classmate, Peyton Leutner, in an attempt to gain the favor of Slender Man, a fictional character that had captured the imaginations and fears of many on the internet. The disturbing incident took place in a park in Waukesha, Wisconsin, where Leutner was stabbed 19 times but miraculously survived by crawling to safety, eventually being rescued by a bicyclist.
Peyton Leutner, who was also 12 when the attack occurred, has since shared her experiences, revealing that the trio had spent a significant amount of time together. Leutner recounted to ABC how Geyser was fixated on Slender Man, a character that had haunted Leutner’s thoughts.
As the search for Geyser continues, the case serves as a haunting reminder of the dark corners of internet folklore and its real-world implications. The authorities remain on high alert as they work to locate Geyser and ensure public safety.
The trio spent a lot of time together, Leutner previously told ABC. Geyser constantly talked about Slender Man, a character that terrified Leutner, she said.
The night of the stabbing, Leutner had gone to Geyser’s home for a slumber party to celebrate her birthday.
At age 15, Geyser pleaded guilty to a charge of attempted first-degree murder in a deal with prosecutors to be placed in a mental institution instead of serving jail time.
In January, a judge ordered she could be released from the Winnebago Mental Health Institute, where she spent nearly seven years, The Associated Press reported.
