In the state of Wisconsin, crimes of attempted first-degree intentional homicide are supposed to be tried in adult court which has a sentence of sixty-five years, but the lawyers are attempting to get the case moved to juvenile court instead which could be a sentence of only three years for each before being released. While being detained the judged ordered two different doctors to evaluate the girls to see if they had any mental illness. Morgan was then diagnosed with early onset schizophrenia but Anissa was deemed sane, however, both girls were deemed competent to stand trial. As of today, the courts have remained firm on their decision to try the girls in adult court. There are so many ways in which this case defies normal odds and that is why it brings mixed emotions on how to handle the situation. It is because of the outlandish circumstances surrounding the case, media outlets frame the case
