A 911 call showing the struggle of a 12-year-old Wisconsin girl after being stabbed 19 times and how a stranger helped save her life has already been released.

Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier, both 12, have allegedly tricked the victim into coming with them to the woods and have left her to die. A bicyclist who happened to pass by that morning saw the blood-covered girl crawling out of the woods, ABC News reported.

In the recorded call, the bicyclist told the dispatcher that the girl was still alert, breathing and able to take "shallow breaths." He then stayed with the bleeding victim while waiting for help and notified the dispatcher when a squad car came into view.

Geyser and Weier have already been charged as adults in an attempted first-degree intentional homicide case. Based on court documents, the two suspects believed they would become subjects of the fictional horror character Slenderman by killing the victim and later on gain entry into his mansion.

The criminal complaint also detailed how Weier deeply believed in the deadly mission that she had kept a picture of her family in her bag to keep herself from forgetting them. She also told the police that her "bad part" wanted their victim to die while the "good part" wanted her to survive.

According tp ABC News chief legal affairs anchor Dan Abrams, the judge is still weighing whether to try the case in juvenile or adult court. The result of the case could also be affected by the ages of the two suspects.

Abrams said the defense could use the age of the suspects to build an argument that they are not guilty of the crime and play on the fact that they did not truly understand the nature of their deadly act.

Anthony Cotton, Geyser's lawyer, said his client should not be tried in an adult court because she might be suffering from mental health problems. He also said this could be the "worst nightmare" that any parent could face.

On Monday, Geyser's family released a statement extending their sympathy for the stabbing victim and her kin. They said they were filled with "anguish" over the incident.
