Girl accused of stabbing classmate for horror character to get Internet access

WAUKESHA - One of the girls charged with trying to kill a friend to please a fictitious horror character will be given limited Internet access.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports (http://bit.ly/1f3URTk) that a judge will allow the 13-year-old girl to have supervised access to educational programming recommended by teachers at the West Bend juvenile facility where she's being held.

The girl and her 12-year-old friend are accused of stabbing classmate Payton Leutner 19 times in May 2014 to gain favor with Slender Man, a character they believed could kill them. Leutner survived and is now 13.
