This practice has occured with in this group.But there are more of them getting married to cousins.
From an artical several years ago this was not being called molesting but a rite of passage.

It actually happens allot in all the Amish communities. I lived around them for a few years and so many are sick and twisted. Part of the reason is because their are no outsiders coming into their church so it's mainly family starting from brother and sister right up to third and fourth cousins. And they can't experience the real world for themselves so they feel they have to do with what's available and sadly their sisters have to suffer most of the time. They look so inocent from the outside, but I'd tell anyone to stay AWAY!

I don't know about molesting sister, however , they do marry within the family i.e. cousins mostly.

didn't know they did as this isn't a common practice for them anymore than in the " outside " world as far as I know from the people I've encountered.
