But she decided to ''go back'' to the church, and was ready to lead the bonneted life and get baptized--but then the cops found the sole remnant of her ''Rumspringa'' life, which unfortunately included several baggies of methamphetamine. Even that didn't directly lead to her arrest; the cops planted a wire on her and sent her to inform on the ring of her former friends. When the kids get arrested, the other Amish in the community shun her and her family--because sinners or no, the kids she sent to prison were their children. ''That'' leads Leanne to run away from home, to spare her parents the shame; she presumably is arrested sometime thereafter.
