Teens, 12-Year-Old Say They Were Grabbed, Groped At Wilmington Horse Auction




NEW CASTLE, Pa. -- State police are searching for a group of young Amish men who they say indecently assaulted three girls recently in Lawrence County.

The incident happened Sept. 2 at a horse auction that the girls attended with their parents on Route 208 in Wilmington Township, police said.

Five Amish men who were "allegedly under the influence of alcohol and controlled substances" groped and fondled two 13-year-old girls and a 12-year-old girl, according to a police report.

"If the victims did not heed their demands, they were forcibly grabbed and punched," police wrote in a media statement. "One female was dragged down several steps. She was to seek treatment at a Mercer County hospital."

Police said several witnesses have backed up the girls' account of the incident.

Troopers at the state police station in New Castle will hold a news conference about their investigation today at 11:30 a.m.

I guess it wasn’t a joke. Don’t the Amish give their young people a free pass into our decadent world to see if they want to remain here or go back to the Amish community? I kinda wonder if they went off the reservation when they went off the reservation......:(

Police also found 4 AK-47s and 1 RPG at the scene. 2 of the Amish men were said to have a remarkable resemblances to Jimmy Hoffa Jr. and Donald Trumpka.

If only the public actually knew that really goes on in some of those Amish homes, they won't hold them up as being wonderful people. Its a cult with cult like behavior and they aren't immune from bad conduct.

Were they really Amish, or were they Amish-Amish?

Some of the "modern" Amish are allowed plain buttons. Those who cling to the old standards use a "hook & eye" approach (like a typical closure on a bra). Zippers are forbidden. Ditto for belts.
