An insider's look into the events surrounding the Nickel Mines
Amish schoolhouse shootings--told by the counselor who was called
upon to come to the farmhouse where the families met on that
fateful day.On October 2, 2006, Charles Roberts, a local milk-tank
truck driver, bound and shot ten young girls in an Amish
schoolhouse before committing suicide. Five girls died. Five others
were severely injured and left in critical condition. In the
aftermath of the massacre, the Amish community shunned the media.
But they requested that Amish-raised counselor Jonas Beiler come to
the scene to offer his moral and spiritual support. In Think No
Evil, Beiler offers his first-person account of the events, as well
as of those who were closest to the scene: the surviving children,
the volunteer fireman Rob Beiler, the local counseling center
director Brad Aldricha, and Vietta Zook, aboard the first ambulance
to arrive. Beiler poignantly describes the Amish families'
responses to this horrific violence as they reached out to the
shocked family members of the killer, offering unconditional
forgiveness. The story didn't end on that horrible day with the
deaths of those five little girls. Think No Evil follows the
ongoing story of this gentle community having faith in God's
design, of truly demonstrating Christian values, of responding with
resilient love in the face of evil, of demolishing the scene of the
murders and rebuilding the schoolhouse, and of determining to move
forward in living out their faith in peace.
