In page David Eddings:

"

Eddings and his wife Leigh pled guilty to 11 counts of physical child abuse[1] of their adopted children. They adopted one boy in 1966, Scott David, then two months old;[2][3] subsequently, the couple adopted a girl between 1966 and 1969.[3] In 1970, the couple lost custody of both children and were each sentenced to a year in jail in separate trials for extensive child abuse of both children.[1] Though the trial and conviction of both David and Leigh Eddings was reported in the local press, the news was not widely disseminated, as Eddings was an obscure academic at the time. The conviction was consequently not remarked on after Eddings became a well-known author over a decade later; it was not widely publicly revealed until after his death.[citation needed]
