“The pattern is waiting years to come forward. That is the similarity.”

There is no such pattern, so you are using the false logic known as the strawman argument. There is no such pattern, because some of the alleged victims attempted to gain support from friends and professionals such as their talent agent or a lawyer, only to have their allegation dismissed with ridicule and contempt without any meaningful consideration immediately after the attacks and/or within the first year.

If someone were to rape you, you had no means of proving the encounter was a rape, any of your attempts to even discuss your rape was immediately dismissed with disdain and ridicule, and the statute of limitations finally passed; would you continue to remain silent when you learned dozens of other women were also being drugged and raped with similar impunity; wouldn’t you come forward too if for no other reason than to warn away other women who could become the rapist’s unwitting victims?

A woman who is raped needs to go to the police/hospital immediately.
If she waits years then comes forward she does a disservice to rape victims and herself by delaying the report of the rape.

Tired of the excuses, take personal responsibility.
