Grand jury returns indictment against Del. pediatrician accused of molesting children

Del. pediatrician indicted on 400 criminal counts

DOVER, Del. — Delaware’s attorney general says a pediatrician accused of molesting his patients victimized 103 children, and the alleged crimes were recorded on videotape.

Attorney General Beau Biden said at a news conference Monday that Dr. Earl Bradley of Lewes has been indicted on 471 charges, including rape and assault.

Bradley was arrested in December and initially charged with 29 felony counts for allegedly abusing nine children.

Biden says the charges are based on 13 hours of video.

The attorney general said the charges are “unique” in state history, and the alleged crimes were committed against “those without voices.”
