Officers respond to a call about two people loitering behind a business. A concerned citizen says the pair might be homeless and need somewhere warm to stay. When police arrive, they try to identify them to make sure they aren't missing or in danger. But the two quickly become evasive, changing ages and avoiding simple questions. What starts as a welfare check immediately turns into a complicated identity verification. I ain't know what to do. Like I >> So I was called to see can they get somewhere for the night? >> Yeah. Uh the thing is there ain't a lot of shelters. That's that's that's what's crazy is >> Yeah. >> They find shelters for other people to go down here. >> Yeah. Cuz I I you know I couldn't leave them out here. >> So I was like I know what to do. So I was like let me call and see y'all. I told him uh that I believe >> where you guys uh from uh South >> like how far? >> Not that far. We're not living anywhere. >> We'll be fine tonight. >> Okay. I just want to make sure you guys are warm. >> We're fine. You >> sure? >> Yes. >> I appreciate it. No problem. I just want to make sure you guys have some place you want to stay. >> No, we're we're >> How old are you? >> I'm 23. >> 23? >> Yeah. >> How old is he? >> Um, she's transgender. She's >> Oh, how old is she? 23. >> Okay. >> I don't have my ID, but >> All right. Well, we give him your name and date of birth cuz we just got to make sure you're you're saying who you are. You say you are. Okay. You're not missing anything. Okay. Uh, thank you. >> No problem. Thank you for calling. >> As officers ask for names and birth dates, the pair keeps switching details. One says they're 23, then 19, then refuses to give a last name. Police remind them that refusing to identify yourself can be considered obstruction, which can lead to arrest. The officers aren't aggressive. They just need to confirm nobody is missing or wanted. But the more the two avoid answering, the more suspicious the situation becomes. Because I don't believe you're 23. That's why. Okay. And we got called here for a call. So to be honest, I want to make sure that you're not missing. As long as you're not missing, you can go you can go on your way. >> Are you missing from somewhere? >> Then just give me your name and date of birth and you can be on your way. >> Okay. I'm 19. >> Huh? >> I'm 19. >> 19. That's fine. You're still an adult. So >> yeah. So what's your last name? >> No way. >> I don't want to give you my name. >> Okay. Well, then we're going to arrest you and take you an ID. We're going to hold you an ID at the station for fingerprints. >> So, you're going to You don't want to obstruct an officer. Give him your name and date of birth. You're not wanted for murder. Right. >> Right. >> Well, then you ain't going to have a problem with us. I promise you. Okay. It's You're making a bigger deal than it is. >> It is a transgender. So just get his get her name his name. >> Get your ID with you. >> No. Were you ever issued an ID? Anywhere? >> Anywhere. Okay. What state were you issued an ID out of >> mine was issued out of Wisconsin? >> Okay. And uh what's your last name? >> Harrison. Just about that. >> You have our little initial. >> Okay. What's your date of birth? >> R. Okay. >> The officers explain that if the names don't match any records, they'll have to take them to the station for fingerprinting. That process can take hours or even days before results come back. The pair insist they don't want their identity out there, but officers warn that continuing to hide who they are will only escalate things. This moment becomes the turning point between simply walking away or being detained. >> It's not a big deal. You'll be on your way. Okay. >> First name George Robert Ida Edward Sam. First name St. Scott Edward Henry Nora Edward April 162 a female run yours car. My car right there. >> Let's go run in Wisconsin. Maybe unless you want to do over here that's even easier. >> Hey, what's up? I think that's >> Can we do something wrong? >> No, we just got called here for a service call. So, >> now you did something wrong cuz you come back. No record on file. So, and and that means you're lying to us >> about your name. >> Okay. >> So, now that's obstructing >> cuz I'm going to give you one more chance before we're going to take you in custody and fingerprint you. Okay. So just be honest. Not a big deal. You're making it bigger deal. >> Robert 1783. Should have real. >> Okay. >> Cuz if he comes back, no record on file also, which I hope he doesn't cuz that means both of you are lying. I'm going to take you both in for fingerprints. Okay? Don't don't make us do all that. We just want to send you on your way. >> Record as well. Charles, >> you guys wanted for something. Why are you hiding your name? I don't understand. >> But you didn't come back either. >> You're not Wisconsin. >> I just don't want my identity out there. >> Okay. It's just it's just personal preference. >> Okay. You can have that per preference, but we're going to have that preference of taking you in and fingerprinting you. Okay. That's what we're going to do. >> Is there any way to avoid that without >> Yeah. give us your right name, date of birth, and then we can go on our way. >> We don't want to mess with you. We don't want even we don't want to take you in a fingerprint you. But that's if that's what I have to do. I have to make sure you're not wanted for anything. No homicides or anything like that. That's it. >> I I can promise you and I know it. I know. >> I don't know you and you don't know me. >> I know. I know. But just got to identify. >> Give your name. >> Make sure you ain't wanted for no warrants and then you're good. Stephanie, one last chance. Don't forget that last opportunity. >> This is your last opportunity. >> Okay, let's try this again. >> I don't know what you're so scared about. >> Here, what's your last name? >> I didn't let her go. >> So, you did by lic identification at this moment, which is a class A mystery. That's a rustful offense. Therefore, you can be placed under arrest for that. Both of you, because you lied and you lied and give me your real name. >> We got dispatch here because you guys are loing in the back of the business. It's not like we >> and there signs posted. There's no loitering. Okay. >> I'm sorry. >> Okay. So, it's not a big deal. What is your name? Don't make us arrest you and do all this extra stuff that we don't need to do. >> We have other stuff to worry about. >> I know we got way more serious things to worry about than this. But we got called here. It ain't like we just walked up and started messing with you. >> And not only that, but when we print you, it could take a day, >> 2 days, >> 2 days until your prints come back before we So you'll be in our custody until we can release you. If you want to stay in the mail all day, that's fine. >> And your prince might come back before him. So then that means that he would still stay at the station and you might get released. Might as well just avoid all of that and tell us your names. >> Look, if you want to stay in a cell for 3 days, by all means, we'll go this route. I'm going up. At this point, we're just gonna detain. Detain her. >> Please let her go. >> Then please let her go. >> Then give him your name. >> I did something wrong. >> What did you do? >> She doesn't know what I did. >> Okay, that's fine. I ain't Let me talk to you again. What? What? What you did wrong? >> I did something really wrong. >> What? >> Seven and cis. >> What did you do wrong? >> It's not that nothing. It can't be that serious. >> And what is your name? >> What? What's happening? >> We don't want problems with you. Okay. We just want need to ID you. That's it. >> Okay. Come back. >> Okay. >> She doesn't know my real name. >> Okay. Well, >> what? >> Give him your real name. >> I don't care about her. One of them finally gives a name, but it still doesn't match any state records. Officers tell them again. If the identity doesn't exist, they must assume the name is fake. The officers give one last warning. Tell the truth or be taken in. By now, the tension is high. Both individuals seem nervous, and the officers sense there's something deeper behind the refusal to identify themselves. >> So, he says he just can't give me his information. Okay. So, segment >> M O R G A N G E Y S E R >> G U What is it? >> G E Y S E R. I promise you did not know. >> G E Y S >> E R. >> And then what's your date of birth? >> May 16th, 2002. >> Yeah. >> So, Morgan is your first name, right? >> Yes. >> G E Y S E.

No matter. >> That's my word. Okay. >> You're being honest with me. >> I'm being honest. That's my name. Trust me, I didn't want to give it to you. >> You'll see why in a second. But she didn't know my name. >> Call my name. >> That's all I have. >> Hold on. >> What is it? Cuz that's your real name. It didn't come back. >> That's my real name. >> What's your middle? >> E. >> E. >> Trust me. >> Is that your real birthday? >> Yes. May 16th, 2002. >> You got E. Is that word? >> No. >> Okay.

Okay. >> For context, Morgan Geyser became internationally known in 2014 for her role in the Slenderman man stabbing. At just 12 years old, she and her friend Ana Weir lured their classmate Payton Bella Lutner into the woods in Wauaaw, Wisconsin. Believing they had to kill someone to appease the fictional internet character Slenderman man. Morgan stabbed Bella 19 times. Miraculously, Bella survived. Geyser was later charged as an adult due to the severity of the attack and the premeditation involved. >> Let me get you warm. Okay. Have you ate? >> What? >> Have you ate anything? >> All right. Hold on a second. >> Is your ID in your purse? Honestly, >> it is. I know he will. It's not. >> Okay. Well, we're going to go through a 1037 vehicle. >> Try to get a mid load. >> Get the car wash in the 145 block Honda. I'll get you. >> Hey, Ronnie, take these bags since you got gloves. Try to find ID in her >> her. She said she doesn't have one. I think she's >> Yeah, >> she's saying that it's really really bad. So the only really really thing bad is you'll never see me again is I hope she didn't commit a homicide cuz she's the way she's talking. She's saying that acts really really bad. >> All right. The Slender Man case remains one of the most shocking juvenile crimes in the US. In 2014, 12-year-old Morgan Geyser stabbed her friend Payton Lner 19 times, while Ana Weir urged the attack, convinced it would please the fictional Slenderman man. Both were found not guilty due to mental illness. Morgan was ordered to up to 40 years of psychiatric supervision, Ana to 25 years. Ana was conditionally released in 2021. Morgan, however, remains under strict state control, and after her recent arrest for leaving her supervised placement without authorization, she will be returned to Wisconsin, re-evaluated, and placed back under secure psychiatric supervision as required by court Order.
