Prosecutors filed charges against the Amish mother who told authorities she was “testing her faith” after throwing her 4-year-old son into an Ohio lake, leading to his death.
Ruth R. Miller, 40, of Millersburg, Ohio was charged with two counts of aggravated murder in the boy’s death.
In addition to the two charges of aggravated murder, court records show Miller is facing two charges of domestic violence and a charge of child endangerment.
The Tuscarawas County Prosecutor’s Office told NBC affiliate WKYC that Miller was served a complaint but remained in the hospital as of Wednesday.
The ministry and extended family had been walking with them through their challenges, and they had also received professional help in the past.” The family lived in Holmes County, Ohio, which has a large Amish community.
