Amish Country offers with Tornado Mess Sugarcreek, Ohio – The heart of Amish country cleaning up after a tornado hit F1 on Saturday. Read more about Fox 8 Cleveland On October 2, 2006, in Nickel Mines, the Amish attracted an entirely different type of attention. Charles Carl 
Roberts, backed up his pickup truck to the the community’s one-room schoolhouse where he proceeded to tie up and shoot 10 girls execution style, killing five, before taking his own life.
The innocence of the girls Charlie shot and his own admission that he was a sexual predator with intent to abuse again, held the world in the grip of horror. This was the third school shooting that first week of October 2006; however it stood apart from the others by its diabolical nature.
The shooter had deliberately targeted the pacifist Amish community because their lack of technology meant that they were more vulnerable. For years he had driven a milk truck, collecting milk from their farms. They trusted him and he betrayed their trust. As he stated in his suicide note, Charlie was mad at God for taking his newborn daughter who died 10 years earlier.
Rather than recoiling further from the rest of society, the Nickel Mines Amish community visited the home of Charlie Robert the afternoon after the murders, offering his widow Amy their condolences and telling her that they forgave her husband. It was an unprecedented act of mercy that left the local news team flummoxed.
