6 lawsuits filed against Del. pediatrician

LEWES, Del. (AP) - January 31, 2010

There are no victims named in any of the lawsuits, and they offer almost no details beyond alleging that the plaintiffs were patients of Dr. Earl Bradley and were assaulted by him.

Attorney Bruce Hudson says more defendants are likely to be added and more cases filed. Bradley currently faces 29 felony counts for allegedly abusing nine children, but officials have said there may be as many as 100 victims.

Five of the six lawsuits were filed last week. They allege that Bradley abused children between the ages of 2 and 7 on numerous occasions. All were filed by the same attorneys, Hudson and Ben Castle.
