Morgan Geyser Moved From Waukesha Jail as DOC Puts Staff on Leave, Tightens Alerts

Her location remains undisclosed pending court action on revoking her conditional release.

Overview

  • County officials confirm Geyser is no longer housed at the Waukesha County Jail, with her transport and placement sealed by the court.
  • Her attorney sought transfer to a mental health facility as she awaits proceedings on whether her conditional release will be revoked.
  • The Department of Corrections placed three employees on administrative leave and launched an after‑action personnel investigation.
  • DOC now requires immediate teletype notifications to local agencies and prompt apprehension requests once an ankle monitor tamper is confirmed.
  • Records show the monitoring center had a 21% vacancy rate and processed 397 tamper alarms between 9 p.m. and midnight, contributing to delayed alerts and a timeline in which Madison police learned of her disappearance more than 10 hours after she left.
