MILWAUKEE (AP) — The judge in the case of two girls accused of stabbing a classmate as a sacrifice to a fictitious horror character called Slender Man has said the girls will be tried together and set a trial date of Oct. 15. Judge Michael Bohren decided previously that the case should be tried in adult court, and the 13-year-old girls face decades in prison if convicted. Investigators say they plotted to lure Payton Leutner into the woods after a sleepover in suburban Milwaukee. They say the girls intended to kill their friend to earn a place in the mansion of Slender Man, a character described as unnaturally tall and thin with no visible facial features. Slender Man stories have proliferated online in recent years.
