Anissa Weier Photos: Pictures of 12-year-old Girl Accused of Trying to Stab Friend to Death

The Slender Man game and story was cited as the reason for a stabbing in Wisconsin. Two preteen girls have been charged. In this Saturday, May 31, 2014 photo, rescue workers take a stabbing victim to the ambulance in Waukesha, Wis. Prosecutors say two 12-year-old southeastern Wisconsin girls stabbed their 12-year-old friend nearly to death in the woods to please a mythological creature they learned about online. Both girls were charged as adults with first-degree attempted homicide Monday in Waukesha County Circuit Court. According to a criminal complaint, the girls had been planning to kill their friend for months and finally made the attempt in a park on Saturday morning, after a slumber party.
