NBC 24 (Ohio) spoke with a member of the LaGrange Co. Amish community who says meth has invaded his people.
"We wish it wouldn't have," said John Whetstone, 38. "We're trying to take steps not to have it get out of hand, but it is heavy enough."
The problem among the Amish is so pervasive, Compton said, that Steuben Co. undercover officers had to learn to speak Dutch to make busts among the Amish.

What a shame! I have great respect for communities like this and I'm sorry to see illegal drugs have become a problem for them!
