State officials in Wisconsin have taken steps to block the conditional release of Morgan Geyser, a woman who participated in the attempted murder of her classmate in 2014 as an homage to the fictional character Slender Man.
Geyser's release from a mental institution was approved earlier this year, but she escaped from a group home in Madison last week and was recaptured by police. The Department of Corrections has now petitioned to have her conditional release revoked, citing concerns about her behavior and adherence to her treatment plan.
If the request is granted, Geyser could face further imprisonment and potentially new charges related to her escape. Her accomplice, who is currently charged with trespassing and obstruction, had claimed that he was a friend of Geyser's from church, but details about their relationship are still unclear.
Geyser's involvement in the attempted murder plot was sparked by an obsession with Slender Man, a character created online in 2009. The story surrounding her case has garnered significant attention, including a 2018 film and numerous video games.
While Geyser had been granted conditional release, state health officials raised concerns about her behavior before the initial approval. These included allegations that she had read a novel with graphic content and had communicated with someone who collects murder memorabilia.
The judge ultimately sided with the state's concerns, but Geyser's attorney has not commented on the request to revoke her release. A hearing is scheduled for December 22 to determine the outcome of this petition.

. It's clear that there are still concerns about her behavior and adherence to her treatment plan.
. The fact that it has garnered significant attention, including a film and video games, might be perpetuating a sense of morbid fascination around Slender Man and the case in general 
. This could potentially impact Geyser's ability to receive treatment and reintegrate into society.
. It would be unfair to punish Geyser for her actions, but at the same time, she needs to be held accountable for putting herself and others in harm's way 
.
. Anyway, Morgan Geyser's situation is super disturbing, especially since she was planning to do something like that as an homage to Slender Man 
. She was already struggling with mental health issues when she got caught up in the whole Slender Man thing. Now, her freedom is being taken away again because of some concerns about her behavior... I don't know, man, it just feels like we're stuck in this cycle of tragedy
