User blog comment:CoughOfFire/Slenderman Incident: Really People?/@comment-25094266-20140806210250

Well, the case hasn't even gone to trial, so saying they were "put in jail" is a bit of overkill. (I should know; I live in Wisconsin) And yes, I agree that it is a bit radical to say "oh, I believe in Jeff/Slenderman/BEN/whatever pasta." However, the mind is a very persuadeable thing that can and will be fooled into believing something that is obviously not real.

What happened has happened. The only thing we can do is hope that the media doesn't hound us once it does go to trial.
