amish community

Solving murders inside the Amish community is unlike solving any other kind of criminal case. These closed communities are pious, principled and notoriously distrustful of the outside world. Murder in Amish Country uncovers some of the most heinous crimes committed by seemingly moral subjects, and reveals that what happens in the dark... eventually comes to light.

Life as it was 300 years ago: the Amish in the USA. The religious community has its origins in Europe and its very own rules, such as adult baptism and - depending on the strictness of the community - the rejection of technological progress.

In this one-hour special, follow the real Amish witches who inspired the Lifetime original movie 'Amish Witches: The True Story of Holmes County'.
