A Delaware hospital has revealed that it investigated a 1996 complaint against a pediatrician now accused of molesting more than 100 patients, but the doctor was cleared of any wrongdoing.
A nurse reported in 1996 that Dr. Earl Bradley may have inappropriately touched young girls in his care.

Officials at Beebe Medical Center said after Bradley's December arrest that they were not aware of any past problems with him. They have since acknowledged that Bradley was investigated by Milford police in 2005, but no charges were filed. Officials said in a statement that they were revealing the 1996 complaint now because they could do so "without jeopardizing the criminal case."

Police and prosecutors found out about the 1996 investigation after they charged him in December.

How many innocent children were victimized by this animal since 1996 because they had to spend 13 years gathering enough evidence to secure a conviction? This problem is caused by scumbag bloodsucking lawyers who would do anything in their power to put him back on the street so he could do it again, all for the love of the dollar. Get rid of the lwayers and half of all our problems would disappear.

The board that exonerated him should be held accountable. After all, look at how few complaints of this kind are brought...ESP. by nurses.
