Marlena Fiol/ “The Secrets Inside an Amish Community: One Woman’s Story of Survival” – My Interview With Misty Griffin

When Misty was six years old, her family started to live and dress like the Amish. Misty and her sister were basically kept as slaves on a mountain ranch. They were subjected to almost complete isolation, sexual abuse and extreme physical violence. The two young girls were too terrified to escape. They also knew that no rescue would ever come because only a few people even knew they existed and they didn’t know them well enough to care, so they thought. Then as teenagers, they were adopted into Amish families and things seemed so much better at first but then went from bad to worse.

Misty escaped and is here to tell her story and so much more. She inspires us to stand up for and be committed to protect children from abuse.
