That’s fair, but you can say that about any number of communities. For example, police have a domestic abuse rate of 40% (4x national average for USA).
I wasn’t really trying to put the amish/mennonite communities on a pedestal as much as I was their craftsmanship and work ethic. I think any community, sufficiently insular, will have bad actor-members who exploit the insular and secret nature of the group to their own ends. Doubly so for any religious community.
