A Minneapolis man petitioned for custody of his daughter after he split from his wife, and his wife converted to Old Order Amish. He learned his daughter would not continue school after the eighth grade, a common Amish practice. He won custody, but afterward his daughter disappeared, and was believed to be living in an Amish community. Read about the case in an Aug. 29, 2005, article from The Dunn County News.
