How Slender Man Attacker Morgan Geyser Escaped From Group Home
Morgan Geyser escaped a Madison group home, and police were notified nearly 11 hours later due to state monitoring protocols and privacy rules, officials said.
- Madison police say Morgan Geyser escaped a Madison group home and was last seen around 8:15 p.m. on Nov. 22, avoiding arrest for nearly 24 hours before being detained late Sunday night in Posen, Illinois.
- At about 9:30 p.m., DOC monitoring flagged a GPS bracelet malfunction Saturday, and Yoyo Quality Care group home staff told authorities the bracelet was at the facility but not on her leg; patient-privacy rules at DHS limited public disclosures.
- Her electronic monitoring device had been cut off, and she and Chad M. Mecca used Greyhound and PACE buses to travel before police found them sleeping behind a Thorntons gas station around 8:54 p.m. Sunday.
- Victim Witness Assistance notified Payton Leutner's family Sunday as Geyser was processed on a nationwide extradition warrant and taken to Cook County Jail for a bond hearing.
- Madison Police Department say they were unaware for 11 1/2 hours, and neighbors like Ricardo Gandolfo expressed alarm about the delay and lack of information, reflecting oversight concerns.
