Bradley Trial Begins … and Ends in One Day

Georgetown, Del. —Former pediatrician Earl Bradley’s fate now rests in Superior Court Judge William Carpenter Jr.’s hands after just one day of testimony.

Attorneys from both sides began the trial, Tuesday, with an agreement that consolidated the original 470 charges into 24. Those 24 consisted of 14 first-degree rape, 5 second degree assault and 5 sexual exploitation of a child charges.
The defense called no witnesses nor cross examined either of the two called by the prosecution. Defense attorney Dean Johnson’s only gesture was to note his objection to the video evidence.

“It’s a continued objection,” he said.

Prosecutor Paula Ryan’s chief witness – Delaware State Police Detective Scott Garland with the High Technology Crimes Unit – painted a gruesome picture of evidence obtained by warrant at both Bradley’s Baybee Pediatrics office and home. Some of the video evidence, Garland said, showed victims losing consciousness. Bradley picked one victim up by only the head and slung her on a couch four feet away after nearly choking her to death by forcing her to perform oral sex on him, Garland alleged.

Several in the crowd that began as nearly 60 people were in tears throughout the testimony, and even Garland admitted it was “something I was not prepared to see” when he referred to the video evidence.

I think the prosection is doing a very good job dividing up the evidence. It does look like the current evidence might have been obtained illegally and they would still have enough to put this guy away for life. This is an absolutely EVIL man! There is no way he will survive prison. Someone who is in prison for life without parole will take this man out. It is a shame he will not face the death penalty for what he did to these kids. EVIL, EVIL MAN!!

I can't even describe what I feel after reading this article. They better throw him into general population so justice can actually be done.

This should have ended a year ago with a good old-fashioned lynching.
