The Discovery Channel’s Amish Mafia is filled with faked criminal records, paid actors, and exploding cars. These are the show’s darkest secrets
Amish Mafia seems like a parody of reality shows. It takes a people who are known for being peaceful, compromising, and helpful, and somehow tries to convince its audience that a fringe element of those people are using guns, force, and explosions to ensure the safety of the other 99 percent of the community.
Levi King Stoltzfus, aka Lebanon Levi, leads a motley crew of outcasts as the head of the Lancaster branch of Amish Aid. They include Alvin, Jolin, John, and Esther, and they are supposedly all that stands between the forces of chaos and terror and the peaceful businesses of Lancaster County.
However, none of this is exactly true– none of the cast are Amish. Amish Mafia lived its short life from 2012 to 2015 dogged by constant accusations of being completely fake; not just reenacting events, as its title card admits, but completely fabricating the idea of an Amish Mafia while presenting it as real.
Spoiler alert: it wasn’t real. However, just how shady and sketchy were the producers in trying to present their own insane narratives as real stories? Second spoiler alert: really sketchy. They went to extreme lengths to perpetuate their show.
With that said, here are the 15 Dark Secrets You Never Knew About Amish Mafia.
