Ex-Amish Misty Griffin: Child Sex Abuse in The Amish Community (LIVE Q&A)

Most Americans’ image of the #Amish is that of simple farmers, shutting out modern technology and outside influences. However, ex-Amish Misty Griffin is here to share a darker side to Amish life. There are accusations of rampant abuse, which the accusers say they were never able to talk about. Griffin joined an Amish community at the age of 18, but fled after she was raped by a bishop who was supposed to protect her. Griffin’s new life with the conservative Amish society reportedly began when she was 18 years old. Although she was originally pleased with the change from living on an isolated mountain farm where she had been nurtured in Amish customs, her joy eventually transformed into her worst dread. Survivor Mary Knight, who has been suffering at the hands of multiple church leaders who abused her as well, will join Misty Griffin to discuss child sex abuse in religious cults, and both will be taking questions from you our subscribers.
