"Attorney says girl accused in stabbing belongs in juvenile court" by Associated Press February 17, 2015
WAUKESHA, Wis. — One of two Wisconsin girls accused of stabbing a classmate to please the horror character Slender Man should face a lesser charge in juvenile court because she thought she was defending herself and her family from the creature, her attorney said Monday.
Each girl’s case has reached the preliminary hearing stage, where a judge decides whether enough evidence exists to order a trial.
Defense attorney Anthony Cotton began what’s expected to be a two-day proceeding by declaring that the evidence will show his 12-year-old client should really face a second-degree attempted homicide charge in juvenile court.
She believed she had to kill 12-year-old Peyton Leutner because she had brokered a deal with Slender Man that called for her and her co-defendant to kill someone.
In exchange, Slender Man would make them his servants. If they didn’t follow through, the creature — described as between 6 feet and 14 feet tall with tendrils sprouting from his back — would attack both girls and their families.
Cotton worked to show that the girl believed Slender Man was real, introducing multiple sketches of him from her notebook.
