They were children when they were abused. As I said, they were strong as adults.
Judd was an adult when this happened, and let 20+ years elapse. She admitted to hearing many stories over the years of it continuing to happen, so she knew it wasn't a one-time instance with her. She also had these people to join forces with as a group to expose him.
She was asked for her help with an expose on Weinstein 2 years ago, but declined to do so.
Whatever power Weinstein held over her 20+ years ago was long ago diminished. Even 20+ years ago, it was only power over a career trajectory, so she and others chose career or money or fame over protecting others. In those 20+ years, all that changed considerably as she became a star, and then mostly retired from the industry some 10 or more years ago. I'd have to look up the last movie she was in, but she mostly retired when she married the racecar driver.
