"Ex-Columbia University Gynecologist Faces Hundreds of New Sex Abuse Claims"

Former Columbia University gynecologist Robert Hadden, who was previously sentenced to 20 years in prison for sexually abusing his patients, is now facing over 300 new sexual abuse claims in a massive lawsuit. This lawsuit more than doubles the number of victims accusing Hadden of sexual abuse. Columbia University and NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital have already reached settlements with previous victims, but the new litigation represents a significant increase in the number of victims pursuing civil litigation against Hadden. Victim advocates are racing against the clock to file civil sexual misconduct suits before the November deadline set by the Adult Survivors Act.
