A Wisconsin woman accused of stabbing her classmate to please horror character Slender Man more than a decade ago asked a judge again Friday to release her from a psychiatric hospital.

Morgan Geyser, who is now 22 years old, filed a petition with Waukesha County Circuit Judge Michael Bohren seeking her release from the Winnebago Mental Health Institute. The petition marks the third time in the last two years she has asked Bohren to let her out of the facility.

She withdrew her first petition two months after filing it in 2022. Bohren denied her second request this past April, saying she remains a risk to the public.

    According to the criminal complaint, the suspects had been planning the attack since February.

    They first thought to kill the victim by placing duct tape over her mouth while she was sleeping and stabbing her in the neck, the complaint says.

    Next, the plan was to kill her in a park bathroom where there was a floor drain that could make cleanup easier, it continued.

    But, finally, the girls decided to carry out the attack in the park while playing a game of hide-and-seek, the complaint says.
