Wisconsin Girls Will Be Tried as Adults in ‘Slender Man’ Attack

A Wisconsin state appeals court ruled Wednesday that two girls accused of trying to kill their classmate in an attempt to please the fictional horror character Slender Man should be tried as adults.

Investigators say the girls, who were 12 at the time of the attack in 2014, plotted for months before luring their classmate into some woods after a birthday sleepover and repeatedly stabbing her. The victim, who was also 12, was found along a road, bleeding from 19 stab wounds that nearly killed her.

The girls have been charged with attempted first-degree intentional homicide and if convicted could go to prison for up to 65 years. As juveniles, they could be incarcerated for up to three years then supervised until age 18.

If children are exposed to "adult" literature, films, and political propaganda ..... then it's the media, film-makers, politicians, and parents who ought to be held responsible and tried for the 'adult' crimes that those children commit.

They committed the crime at the age of 12 tho? Heinous as it is should they be punished for life for what they did at 12?

Is this more of no one is responsible for their own behavior?

YES. Definitely. If they had the mental faculties to plan this whole thing out and hide it from their parents, they are more then mentally competent enough to be tried as adults, and to serve an adult sentence.

The Leftist hack who started this thread is trying to set a trap, however lame and feckless. The objective is to find one conservative to say they shouldn't be tried as adults and then he'll gleefully seize on it as proof that conservatives have a double standard when it comes to race because the perpetrators are white.

What a pathetic, lying POS he is.

Their mental capacity was to stab someone for a fictional character named "Slender Man". Thats not high level stuff

How many little crimes did you commit as a child? You know, the ones you swore to your parents that you didn't do it ..... and got away with it. Even infants are able to con their parents. "Hiding" the truth is not something only an adult can do.

Oh wow...Thats funny. But we already know they have double standards so thats like saying Fish swim. I'm talking about charging kids of any race as adults is a bad idea in MOST cases. But this one? They were 12 dude....Like....How young do you have to go?

Is 10 the limit? 8 years old?

I think the problem with the girls is it wasn't an impulsive thing. they planned for a very long time. to be fair, the thought of them being out of jail in four years is horrifying.

I'm going to go with I'm ok that they be charged as adults based on what I've read about the case so far. I may not have seen mitigating factors..

So you'd rather lie about what you really think rather than to agree with someone on a single point? What sort of world do you want to live in?

Will the victim be fully recovered by age 18?

That should be all that matters when deciding how to charge perpetrators.

You're unmasked, your agenda exposed for all to see. Want to see a racist? Look inward.

We really can't seem to make up our minds in this country as to when a person is an adult.

We'll give an 18 year old an automatic weapon and drop him in the middle of a war zone but then tell him he can't buy a beer.
Now we'll say 2 12 year old girls are adults for trial purposes

But a 26 year old can still be on mommy's insurance

Man are we fucked up or what?

Their mental capacity was to hide the proposed crime from their parents and to plan a violent, potentially fatal attack on a classmate. Considering that we have twenty and thirty-somethings in this country watching Cartoon Network and playing Pokemon GO, I don't think the bar is all that high anymore.
