Wisconsin seeks to block the release of 'Slender Man' attacker after escape
Los Angeles Times
|November 29, 2025
Wisconsin authorities have asked a state court to revoke the conditional release of Morgan Geyser, the woman who in 2014 almost killed her sixth-grade classmate in the name of horror villain Slender Man and escaped from a group home earlier this week.
A Waukesha County Circuit Court judge agreed on Wednesday to seal the petition filed by the Department of Corrections late Tuesday seeking to revoke Geyser’s conditional release. A Waukesha County judge earlier this year approved releasing Geyser from a state mental institution to live in a group home.
Geyser cut off her GPS monitoring bracelet on Saturday night and fled the group home in Madison, Wis., with a 43-year-old companion, authorities said. Geyser was found by police outside Chicago on Sunday night, about 170 miles from Madison.
