Multiple agencies are faulted for not stopping the doctor at the center of a large-scale abuse case, according to a Delaware Justice Department report released earlier this week.
Former pediatrician Earl B. Bradley is accused of sexually assaulting over 100 children, which may be the worst abuse case in the nation’s history, according to a local news report from WBOC 16.
Some of the agencies which are highlighted in the report include:
- Delaware Justice Department
- Delaware Board of Medical Practice
- Medical Society of Delaware
