Slender Man case: woman who stabbed classmate to be released from psychiatric hospital

Morgan Geyser, who pleaded guilty to 2014 attack when she was 12 years old, granted conditional release

A 22-year-old woman who stabbed a classmate a decade ago believing that the act would earn her the right to be servant of Slender Man, a fictional supernatural character, is set to be released from a Wisconsin psychiatric hospital.

Waukesha county circuit Judge Scott Wagner agreed on Thursday to the conditional release of Morgan Geyser from Winnebago mental health institute, a psychiatric hospital where she has spent the last seven years.
