Georgetown – Yesterday the Sussex County Grand Jury issued an indictment of Earl Bradley that
replaces the February 22, 2010 indictment.

This superseding indictment involves no new alleged victims or any new alleged
incidents. Instead, yesterday’s indictment reorganizes the charges contained in the February
indictment based on the investigation and identification process that has been ongoing since
December 2009. Specifically, several alleged victims who were listed under several different Jane
Doe numbers in the February indictment have since been identified as being the same victim in
multiple alleged incidents. Charges pertaining to each of these alleged victims have now been
consolidated under one Jane Doe number for each victim.

The superseding indictment also includes four additional charges of Continuous Sexual
Abuse of a Child, which pertain to multiple incidences of alleged abuse of certain victims
previously identified. Trial in this case is scheduled to begin on February 14, 2011.

The Delaware Department of Justice reminds the public that an indictment is merely an
allegation and is not evidence of guilt. Defendants are presumed innocent and are entitled to a
jury trial at which the State bears the burden of proving each charge beyond a reasonable doubt.
