A woman is facing extradition to Wisconsin after she cut off her electronic monitoring bracelet and escaped a group home where she lived after nearly stabbing her friend to death for the fictional character "Slender Man" nearly a decade ago.
Morgan Geyser, 23, was found at a gas station in suburban Posen Sunday with her friend identified as 43-year-old Chad Mecca, more than 150 miles from the Wisconsin group home where she was released to earlier this year after serving time at a psychiatric hospital, according to authorities.
Geyser faced a Cook County judge Tuesday morning for an extradition hearing. The now 23-year-old was wanted on a fugitive warrant. During the hearing she waived her right to extradition.
She was 15 years old when she pled guilty to attempted first degree intention
