She is very brave.

Most people never come out about their abuse, for some it takes many years. The whole debunking angle of "no victims have come forward" is so flawed in child abuse cases it really makes me wonder why they use it as an argument. I hope more victims can muster up the courage to speak out against this and let people this is actually happening. Break their cognitive dissonance of "it's too weird to be true".

This. Plus: 1. Victims are afraid to come forward if they have escaped and certainly don't want to be found. 2. It takes great healing within, to come to terms with that level of abuse, some never recover. 3. Some are still entangled and may be under great desire to come forward but threatened in some way, in person or family etc 4. Some have been so abused that that is now all they know and they comply or even abuse themselves 5. 'Stockholm Syndrome' sad but true. 6. Deceased

Just a few examples as to why there are no persons coming forward presently. It took Jimmy Saville dying before victims came forward. Yes some had tried before, even those within the BBC had spoken out. But the wall of silence, protection and power surrounding him was a very step climb for victims, especially at the mercy of the ignorant press, ready, willing and able to crush any victim that might sully the name of 'the great Jimmy Saville'. The powers you are dealing with a pretty damn high and believe me, both hope and terror rests with those current victims. Hope that the snowball effect, Streisand effect or whatever other name takes place, so that they can come forward. Terror that they might come forward too soon and pay a terrible terrible price for it. Victims only come forward when they deem it safe too. That girl has my upmost respect.
