ONE of two 12-year-old girls charged as an adult with stabbing a classmate to please the fictional online horror character of Slenderman has been declared mentally incompetent and unable to stand trial.
Morgan Geyser of Wisconsin, told two doctors she could communicate telepathically with a multitude of fictional characters.
Geyser and 12-year-old Anissa Weier are accused of luring a friend to the woods after a sleepover — and stabbing her 19 times to please Slenderman.
Judge Michael Bohren found her unfit for trial, and ordered that she be committed for treatment.
She will be evaluated and treated either in a hospital or in a juvenile detention centre, where she currently is being held.
Doctors have a year to restore her to competency in order to proceed with a trial.
If it cannot be restored, she could be held in a treatment centre.
Judge Bohren acted after receiving reports from two doctors and hearing from lawyers.
He set a hearing for November 12 to get an update on her condition.

The girl's lawyer previously said he believed she was mentally ill and a primary goal would be to have her case moved from adult to juvenile court, where more mental health and other services might be available.
Wisconsin law requires anyone age 10 or older to be charged as adults in severe crimes.
According to court documents, the girls plotted for months to kill their friend to curry favour with Slenderman, a character in horror stories they read online.
They told investigators they believed Slenderman had a mansion in a Wisconsin forest and they planned to go live with him after the slaying.
Dr. Brooke Lundbohm of the Wisconsin Forensic Unit testified Friday that she interviewed Geyser in June. The girl claims to see and hear things that others cannot — including unicorns, Slenderman and Voldemort, an antagonist in the Harry Potter series, Lundbohm said.
"She once regressed into ramblings about a student in her class being a Pegasus," said Dr. Lundbohm said, Fox6now.com reports.

"Despite our very serious conversation, she would laugh almost hysterically," Lundbohm testified, noting that she squatted on her interview chair and was in near constant motion.
A psychiatrist hired by the defence, Kenneth Robbins, testified that she was more concerned about her relationship with Slenderman than she was about going to prison.
She said she communicated telepathically with Slenderman and feared he would harm her or her family if she said too much about him, Robbins said.
He said she also speaks and sees Voldemort's snake and another fictional character, a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.
"For her, these are real characters," Robbins said. "She sees them and they have discussions back and forth."

Geyser, who was found mentally incompetent, hosted the other two at a May 30 slumber party to celebrate her birthday. The next morning, the two girls attacked the victim in a wooded Waukesha park.
Once the attackers left, the 12-year-old victim crawled from the woods to a road where a passing bicyclist found her. Doctors later told police the girl had narrowly escaped death because the knife just missed a major artery near her heart.
The child has since been released from the hospital and is recovering at home. Police have not identified her, and her parents asked friends to keep her name secret.
