Well, yeah. I agree, on some of them. But then again, some of them relate to alleged activity from fifty years ago to very recently (Will Roach, for example).
There are enough cases that suggest a degree of either active collusion in keeping victims silent, or incompetance, or lack of interest on the parts of different police authorities (and BBC authorities, and NHS authorities, and council/school authorities), to justify looking again at historic allegations. Some of these allegations have surfaced now for the first time, but many are repeats of allegations that were never followed up in the first place. Some may be people hopping on a band wagon. Some may be people finally having some expectation that they will be believed.
There are also some men who have been dragged into this nightmare, seemingly for very little reason.
