Quite a few of the women did take action while it was possible to do something legally. I was certainly aware of the accusations years ago.
The current situation did arise because new people came forward or pushed their claims back into the limelight but because someone who didn't forget about them mentioned it in a forum that spread around social media.
And once the conversation is rekindled I have absolutely no problem with the women who were victimized saying "yeah, don't just hear his side of things again..."
And, to be honest, when it comes to having been drugged and raped I'm not too worried about the etiquette of when it is appropriate to talk.
While obviously he shouldn't be formally sanctioned/punished without a trial and due process I have no problem at all moving forward with my life on the assumption that he is a rapist, and a pretty aggressive one at that.
