Naomi added, 

“He was never shunned. He was spoiled rotten. Whenever we needed money for rent, he’d go crying to his mom, and she would pay our rent. I was Amish and left.”

Fast forward to 2019, Naomi accused Jeremiah again of owning her more than $10,000 in back child support. According to Jeremiah, he then hadn’t seen his kids for a long time and didn’t even know that his son got in an ATV accident. It seemed that Naomi chose not to tell Jeremiah that their son was life-flighted due to a UTV rollover that pinned him underneath.

The last we checked, he took a picture with his three kids back in Dec 2016.
