Tough rugby player Brian Moore has revealed that he was abused as a child. Many of his ex-school mates have now revealed that they were also abused.
I guess that most people on this site will think that he wasn't really abused and is just trying to sell more copies of his autobiography, and his school mates may be trying to make money by selling stories (unlikely particularly when there are no celebs involved in the abuse).
This could be true, however more likely, he hasn't revealed it before because there is a stigma attached to even been the victim of such a crime and revealing such a thing would be seen as a weakness.
