  • Summary

  • Edward Gingerich was an Amish man from Rockdale Township, Crawford County, Pennsylvania, who was convicted of manslaughter in the 1993 death of his wife, Katie. There were very early warning signs that Edward was suffering from some kind of psychosis and could snap, however, his religion and life in the Amish community prevented him from getting any kind of real help. Instead, he was treated to different herbs and old wives tales that did nothing to prevent Edward from snapping, and killing his wife in one of the most horrific ways - all in front his of children. Ed was the first Amish person to be convicted of homicide, and his story highlights the need for better mental health awareness and treatment amongst the Amish.
