Chester Mast is an Amish Sex Offender from Pike County, Missouri who was convicted of sexually molestering 4 young girls in 2010. Three of the girls were from Missouri and one from Wisconsin.
Mast has lived most of his life in Missouri but spent some time in Wisconsin, prosecutors said. The alleged assaults in Missouri happened between July 2007 and March 2009, and the Wisconsin assault occurred in 2004, they said.
Both Pike County and Waushara County have large Amish communities. In Pike County, Mast and most of the 60 or so Amish families live near the town of Curryville, about 90 miles northwest of St. Louis.
Korte and Blader said their offices rarely get reports of serious crimes involving the Amish.
“It is rather unusual,” Blader said. “This is probably the first one I’ve seen.”
The Pike County Genealogical Society said the community is “Old Order Amish” that uses no electricity, phones or cars. Community members travel by horse and buggy, use kerosene lamps for light and gasoline-powered machinery.
Mast worked in a sawmill and farmed, Korte said. He had no previous felony record.
