Hundreds sue Hopkins over STD study

BALTIMORE —More than 700 people have filed a billion-dollar lawsuit against Johns Hopkins Hospital and University.

The lawsuit alleges that Hopkins was the driving force behind human experiments in Guatemala in the 1940s.

In those experiments, the lawsuit alleges, people were deceived and intentionally exposed to syphilis, gonorrhea and other sexually transmitted diseases.

The lawsuit alleges that experiments targeted school children, orphans, psychiatric hospital patients, prison inmates and military conscripts.

The suit was filed Wednesday in Baltimore City Circuit Court.

    Maybe 70 years to late? Didn't think to file when it happened?

    Great school! Yes, you did have to work harder to achieve but you walk away with a great education. No $200k education loan to pay off either!
