Ezekiel Hersberger

Ezekiel Hersberger was an Amish farmer and one of the suspects during the investigation into the death of his daughter Hannah's boyfriend Tom Blackwater in The Devil's Playground (Case #36).

Profile
Ezekiel is a 45 year old 6 foot tall man with blonde hair which stretches down his face and chin into a very long blonde beard which folds inwards to make a point down his chest. He hears a sand and brown coloured hat which resembles a sombrero and has light brown eyes. Ezekiel most commonly wears a light blue shirt with brown stockings which lead down to his trousers. Ezekiel weighs 149 pounds and his blood type is A- like his son and daughters. It is known that Ezekiel wears boots and can ride horses well, which is probably learnt from his Amish community.

Role in Case(s)
Ezekiel was called in to speak about Tom's death when his son Isaac Hersberger told the team about how much he hated Tom for dating his daughter. He told the team Tom and his family tried to buy Ezekiel's land from them, and when they didn't get it, Tom attempted to steal Ezekiel's daughter Hannah away from him. The team then spoke to Ezekiel again when they found out that Hannah attempted to commit suicide about the loss of Tom. Ezekiel was very angry about his daughter. After thorough investigation, Ezekiel was arrested for Tom's murder. Ezekiel explained that Tom was bragging about Hannah, saying that she would choose Tom over her father. This angered Ezekiel so he jumped on a horse, grabbed a pitchfork and chased Tom around the farm. He caught him and stabbed him with the pitchfork. He strung up Tom on a post like a scarecrow to symbolise that the outside world should stay away from the Amish.
