Survivors of this type of behavior often bury these encounters deep in their minds because of that trauma. If nothing happens to trigger it enough to bring it back to the surface it will stay buried. Some, even when memories are triggered, will do anything to bury them again. It can be enormously painful to relive so most will not talk no matter what.
