Morgan Geyser: A Story of Release and Disappearance

Morgan Geyser, now 22, made headlines in 2014 for a shocking crime. She and a friend stabbed another girl 19 times, claiming it was to please "Slender Man," a creepy internet character. Both were sent to mental health facilities. Recently, Geyser was moved to a group home and given a monitoring bracelet. But now, she's missing.

The Disappearance

Police say Geyser cut off her bracelet and left the group home on Saturday night. She was last seen in Madison with an adult friend. Authorities are asking for help in finding her. The victim, Payton Leutner, and her family know about Geyser's disappearance. They're working with police to stay safe.

Controversial Release

Geyser's release from the mental health facility was controversial. Prosecutors had concerns. They said she had violent talks with someone outside the facility. She also read a book with dark themes. Despite this, a judge ordered her release with supervision.

The 2014 Attack

In 2014, Geyser and her friend lured Leutner into the woods. Geyser stabbed her while Weier watched. Leutner survived, but the attack was severe. Both girls were found not guilty by reason of mental illness. They were sent to psychiatric institutions for years.

Recovery and Questions

Leutner has worked hard to recover. She has scars, but she's moved on. She said she accepts them as part of her story. Meanwhile, Geyser's disappearance raises questions. Why did she leave? Is she a danger to others? Only time will tell.
