I’ve read that this rape happened some 30 years ago.
Why did this woman wait so long ?

Did you ever hear of Jimmy Savile, the UK “star-maker” who abused 100s over decades, and was protected by their media?

This link shows how the British MSM (BBC) buried the Jimmy Savile story after they knew he was a child rapist. NOBODY would believe the victims, and the media would not touch the story. FOR DECADES.

“Why did this woman wait so long ?”

She didn’t “wait so long.” She wasn’t believed when it happened and was treated badly for even hinting about there being such a scandal. She is coming forward again at this time to reinforce, support, and defend the other alleged victims whose stories are now coming out and facing the same disbelief and criticism she faced so many years before.

These stories have been around a long time.

2006 article from ABC

“Bill Cosby settled a civil lawsuit filed by a woman who said the entertainer drugged and sexually assaulted her at his home outside Philadelphia.”

“The woman claimed that Cosby, 69, assaulted her at his mansion in Cheltenham, Pa., in early 2004 after giving her pills. Attorneys for Cosby say the comedian gave the woman Benadryl after she complained of stress and sleeping problems.

The federal judge presiding over the case earlier denied Cosby’s request for a gag order and the plaintiff’s request to shield the names of a dozen other women who say Cosby assaulted them.”

She has talked about it but the news wasn’t widespread. She was also a teen when it happened and she didn’t get a lot of support back then either. No different from all of Clinton’s victims being ignored or ridiculed when they spoke up.
