Slender Man stabber who attacked schoolgirl as ‘sacrifice’ to creepy character goes MISSING in Wisconsin after chopping off ankle monitor
One of the attackers behind the infamous 2014 Slender Man stabbing has gone missing after cutting off her ankle monitor and escaping her group home in Wisconsin.
Morgan Geyser, 23, fled the Madison facility on Saturday night, according to authorities.
She was last seen with an adult acquaintance, and her whereabouts remain unknown as of Sunday morning.
Geyser was granted conditional release from a mental institution earlier this year and sent to the group home.
More than 10 years ago, she and Anissa Weierr lured their friend, Peyton Leutner, into the woods of Waukesha during a sleepover and stabbed her 19 times. They were all 12 years old at the time.
During the vicious attack, Geyser carried out the stabbing while Weier cheered on the cold-hearted act of violence.
The sinister duo then abandoned Leutner – leaving her to die – but she miraculously survived. She managed to crawl out of the woods, where a cyclist found her.
Weier and Geyser had conspired for months to slaughter Leutner in the name of the fictional horror character Slender Man.

They were charged in adult court with first-degree attempted intentional homicide.
Weier had pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of attempted second-degree intentional homicide as a party to a crime, but the jury found her to be not guilty by mental disease or defect in 2017.
She was sentenced to 25 years in a mental hospital but was granted release in 2021 after agreeing to live with her father and to wear a GPS monitor.
Geyser, who has schizophrenia, pleaded guilty to first-degree murder, but as part of her plea deal, was convicted but found not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect in 2018.
Waukesha County Circuit Judge Michael Bohren, who has since retired, had committed her to a psychiatric hospital for 40 years – a sentence she only served about 25 percent of.
In January, Bohren said Geyser could be released after three experts testified that she was making progress battling her mental illness.

During the same hearing, Geyser also came out as transgender, but female pronouns have continued to be used for court consistency, Dr. Brooke Lundbohm, who psych evaluated Geyser, explained.
At the time, Dr. Kenneth Robbins claimed the Geyser no longer has psychosis, symptoms that experts who have worked with her generally agree played a significant role in the violent assault she committed.
Lundbohm’s treatment team came to the same conclusion.
