Children's book author jailed for over 10 yrs for beating, starving adopted kids in US

Jennifer Wolfthal, children's book author, and her husband Joseph, an engineer, have been jailed for over 10 years for beating and starving their adopted children in Florida. The case began after their eight-year-old malnourished daughter, who had skin infection, was hospitalised with organ failure and pneumonia. Their two other kids said they were made to write 'I'm a fool' repeatedly.
