Robert Hadden was indicted on six counts, but prosecutors said he abused dozens of patients, 'including multiple minors.'

against him were central to a campaign for the New York Adult Survivors Act, which in November opened a one-year window for survivors of sexual abuse to file lawsuits that would otherwise be barred by statutes of limitations.. That deal included no jail time and allowed Hadden to be classified as the lowest level of sex-offender status — meaning he is not listed in New York State's online sex offender registry.

On Wednesday, prosecutors and defense attorneys began whittling down a pool of 100 prospective jurors, calling them one by one to a back room behind the court — where, according to a Tuesday evening court filing, they were likely to face questions about whether they had ever experienced sexual abuse or followed media coverage related to Hadden.
