Morgan Geyser |
| Source (WP:NFCC#4) | Original publication: Waukesha police released this image to the press in 2015 Immediate source: https://abcnews.go.com/US/inside-slender-man-stabbing-suspects-notebook/story?id=29020071 |
| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | Slender Man stabbing |
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | The case hinges around Geyser's psychological state at the time of the crime (specifically, schizophrenia and delusions of slenderman) and this drawing is a direct impression of that. |
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
This was an original drawing from Morgan Geyser, all of which are unique creations by Geyser. If anyone were to create another drawing, it would not be from Geyser. |
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | This file will complement discussion on Geyser's mental state during the stabbing. |
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
Geyser never attempted to monetize this image. It was just a child's drawing from a personal notebook connected to a criminal case. The police released the image without Geyser's input anyway as part of normal criminal procedings. |
