In the United States, Morgan Geyser, 23, was located by police at a truck stop in Illinois two days after she escaped from the group home where she lived. She had cut off her ankle monitor to facilitate her escape. Morgan was with 43-year-old Chad Mecca at the time of their encounter with law enforcement. The pair were found two hours away from the group home, eluding immediate identification by officers. While being questioned, Geyser indicated she had done 'something really wrong' and suggested that officers could 'just Google' her name for verification. The reasons behind Geyser's escape reveal she was anxious about being separated from Mecca, someone she had met at a church a few months earlier. Body camera footage and police reports indicated she felt mistreated at the group home. In her statements, Geyser mentioned how the duo had taken a Greyhound bus from Wisconsin the previous night and carried a backpack containing a journal labeled 'homeless couple's guidebook.' After her initial offense, she and her friend evaded police questioning and were later arrested. Chad Mecca faced charges for criminal trespass and obstructing identification during this incident, but it remains unclear whether he has sought legal representation. The Waukesha County District Attorney's Office is reviewing the case to determine if charges should be filed against Geyser for her conditional release violation. This case underscores the challenges Geyser faces following a prior incident involving her and an accomplice attacking a friend, resulting in severe injuries. Previously, Geyser had been diagnosed with schizophrenia, which contributed to her belief that the horror character 'Slender Man' was advising her actions. Her original crime, implicating her in an attempted homicide, led to her being placed in a mental health treatment facility, where her conditional release plan was established. When apprehended, both Geyser and Mecca were still in possession of a knife, implicating them further in the severity of their criminal engagement. The troubled history of Geyser's behavior remains of significant concern to local authorities, who emphasize the ongoing need for supervision.
