The Amish Go to Court

July 3, 2019

A Moultrie County judge last week awarded guardianship of an elderly Amish woman to the woman’s daughter, capping a fight that has spilled from the insular world of the Amish to the civil court system.

Allegations involve accusations of sexual abuse by a relative. Kim Adamson, a social worker with Mid-Illinois Senior Services, says she reported allegations to adult protective services after receiving calls from three people within the Amish community who said the elderly woman, who is not considered mentally fit to handle her own affairs, had been abused.
