Recap: Slender Man Stabbing Case | Morgan Geyser Release Granted

[@CourtTV]

#CourtTV - What do YOU think? Catch up on the #Slenderman Stabbing Case HERE: www.courttv.com/tag/slenderman/?

[@sinead187]

If her sentence was 40 years and she's only been in there for 10, she needs to stay in. Think of the victim and her family.

[@Kerry-od4cl]

Or better, get transferred to prison

[@Hootski79]

And if she said she faked it in order to make it more likely to be RELEASED???wtf ? Credibility… the experts can’t predict what she will do. She faked it she stays put. The judicial system is ass backward!

[@6AlphaMikeCharlie9]

They changed the law for under age perps, They have to go back to court and get a new judgement at 21 I think because they said in the judgement it's a cruel and unjust punishment to sentence a minor to life.

[@LittlelauraMJ]

@@WinstonWolfe21it’s insane how it’s written. I mean wasn’t she sentenced to 40 years? Annisa at least was closer to half her sentence. What was the point in sentencing her to 40 years?

[@honeybunch5765]

I think she should remain in a mental health facility for the rest of her life. Prison isn't the right place. What I do agree with is that she should never be let back into society. What happens should she stop her treatment?

[@keepfaith_g]

that s what i thought she was released to.... unbelievable for real.

[@relaxingwhitenoisenatureso1111]

She is schizophrenic. Thats a treatable illness. My concern is that she will stop taking her meds and kill again. She needs to be constantly monitored.

[@Puff_Puff_Packs]

what a slap in the face to Peyton. unbelievable. i hope morgan has the hardest life.

[@Kerry-od4cl]

If she is not needing antipsychotics then why is she considered guilty by reason of insanity! If she was faking and was not actually psychotic, why shouldn’t she serve an appropriate sentence for attempted himicide with malice afore thought

[@Sleepymoy1319]

Great point!

[@somnolence7]

She was given the medication she needed at the time and her illness either remissioned or it was childhood-specific. She was treated like a child because she was a child. She doesn’t now need to slip on over to adult prison. Her disability would likely be triggered all over again. And the cycle continues. All children deserve a second chance.

[@ContentCrescentMoon-rh2jo]

Not all, how about u let her live with u ​@rochelle8124

10 years for trying to kll your friend, sickening. She is still deemed a danger according to some experts. I thought Scotland was soft on criminals

[@mandyskw91]

In 2008 in Canada, a 44 year old man named Vince Li was taking a greyhound (bus) and cut the head off of the guy sitting next to him (22 year old Timothy Mclean). The bus got cleared off and before police arrived he was walking up and down the bus aisles and taunting the people outside with the head. He cut up other parts of his body and ate pieces of him. When he went to trial he was found to not be criminally responsible because he was schizophrenic and wasn't medicated.. anyways, in 2015 he was released. And that was for murder and cannibalism..

[@whiteobama3032]

Picture of Peyton in a "Nope. Not today" t-shirt is pretty iconic. That girl's will to survive is something else.

[@Kerry-od4cl]

She will not remain closely supervised - she will start out in high supervision like a board and care but then be granted increased independence and ultimately be allowed to live freely in the community; no, I would NOT want her to babysit - yikes!

[@bionicmimi]

Babysit??? That goes without saying! 😂

[@naelyneurkopfen9741]

I wouldn't want her serving my burger, let alone babysitting.

[@ATRaine]

I don't think she'll be supervised all that much either, the state of Wisconsin isn't exactly overrun with the resources to do what they're talking about. Anissa is already off GPS and has been for awhile, and I call bullshit on the Internet restrictions.

[@karinlovell2834]

She shouldn’t get out. The trauma her victim must be feeling I can’t even imagine. Vile, animal

[@LeiselRadtke]

Completely sick and disturbing that these two have or are being set free. They attempted to murder a girl and would’ve succeeded if the girl hadn’t drug herself to safety to get help. So disappointed in our legal system. 😡

[@anthonydelgrosso4818]

They thought it was real they were real young and definitely not on meds

I honestly don't get what is going on. One of the Wagner brothers, who shot five people dead got 32 years last week, the mother Angela, who was/is the mastermind only got 30 years. Geyser gets out now, even though she lied repeatedly, proving that she would do anything to get out, hinting at the fact that she still has a dubious character. Other people have non-violent drug offenses and get locked away far longer. What is going on????

[@MeowXMeowXBI7CH]

I’m sorry but it’s 1000% ridiculous that those two are free now. Absolutely 1000% pure BS! You can’t rehab that type of monster. They literally meant to take that little girls life, they’re FRIENDS life!! They even SPENT THE NIGHT AT HER HOUSE the night prior to the tragedy. They left her there to pass! It’s a miracle she didn’t. For all intents and purposes they should have a body on them! And should be treated as such!! Because the victim lived means it’s not that bad and they can get out? That’s stupid. They should be doing life cus god knows they ruined that little girls life. IMO if they wanted to show that they rehabbed and aren’t like that anymore then instead of being set FREE into the world they should have been sent to where they belong and that’s PRISON! I bet you 1000% that had they had a hearing to see if they were “Well” enough to go to prison now they’d be screaming, arguing, flailing to “Prove” that they’re still crazy. If the courts want to set these little monsters free into the world then they should be responsible for anything that they do while being free. If they mess up then it should reflect back on the court, I can promise you that if that were a thing then these little monsters would have been buried and sent to prison already and none of this BS. Lastly and yes I mean to also play this… if they’re race were ANYTHING else then what they are and the same crime committed you think they get released? I sure as **** don’t. Bs all around and everyone involved should be ashamed of themselves for letting these KILLERS out into the world.

I dont believe this scenario at all and I feel terrible for the victim and anyone who has to be around these two.

[@Kristina_617]

Well, you're an adult, and you _don't see_ how your comment is victim blaming a 12 year old. So, perhaps a 12 year old didn't see it coming that her best friend would st@b her and try to k!ll her at a sleepover. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@honeybunch5765]

I agree. Yes she might be good now, because she had been institutionalised, surrounded by professional care givers. What if she stops her meds, can't deal with the pressure of the world and she hurts someone again or even worse? People are not going to treat her as normal. I for one will fear her. I had a friend whose daughter has various mental health issues. Everyone around her was very nice and had the little girl over for playdates, often babysitting her etc. She started to get obsessed with the mothers of her friends and claimed she was SA by a few of them. She wasn't, it was all in her head. It ruined those women's lives. Especially the one woman who was charged with SA. My friend obviously believed her daughter. A few years later her daughter admitted that she told lies. She heard about her older sister who was really assaulted by a male neighbour years ago and decided to make it her story too. What put me off from my friend is that she never went back to that town and told that women her daughter lied. It's a small town, you can imagine the gossip.

[@Kerry-od4cl]

Speaking as a forensic psychologist, yes, her treatment team could have been fooled; clinical patient care is (should be) separate from court assessments since clinicians are trained to accept patient reports whereas for forensic evaluators are trained to take all of the evidence into account

To me, if you committed a crime because of mental health issues and get suddenly approved for release…you should get released into prison. Whether you were mentally ill or not, you committed a horrible crime and you need to serve time in prison or in a mental institution.
