Geyser's attorney requests return to mental health facility, judge to determine placement

Waukesha County Sheriff\'s Department

WISCONSIN (CBS 58) -- New details in the escape and arrest of Morgan Geyser. 

Geyser- one of the women involved in the 2014 Slender Man stabbing- escaped from her group home last month. 

She was arrested in Illinois and has been in Waukesha County Jail since extradition. 

Geyser's attorney recently filed a motion to have her returned to the Winnebago Mental Health Institute. 

The state responded by saying they are not taking a stance on the matter and that either location is adequate. 

It is now up to the judge to determine if a relocation of Geyser is warranted. 

Geyser is due back in court Dec. 22.
