This points out a flaw in the defense offered by the advocates and defenders of a lot of the accused. Where, before, the accusations would be of a singular nature, now they are from many accusers for each case, and more of them are rather reputable and credible accusers. The offenders and their advocates are finding it harder to just try and dismiss the accusations by saying the accusers are motivated by money or fame, are of questionable mental stability, or questionable morals. The accusers are very often far more credible than the accused and the usual mitigations are just not holding up. Victims were often reluctant to come forward because they feared not only not being taken seriously, they also feared repercussions on themselves. Now they are finding support and credence. This should make a lot of the pervs and jerks a whole lot more uncomfortable about what may be coming their way, and that is good: let them sweat it out and be fearful, rather than their victims...
