You dont think the timing of this is fishy? He shut up for 15 years, he was promised a role in a movie that comes out in a month which he coincidentally isnt in. Broken promise equals broken silence?

It doesnt make it okay if Singer did it.
Except this isn't atypical for a lot of sexual assault victims. It can be incredibly difficult to seek out law enforcement immediately after the incident occurred. Everyone deals with trauma differently.

The reason for a civil suit vs. criminal charges largely has to do with burden of proof. He may have gone to his lawyer and been advised there wasn't enough evidence to obtain a criminal conviction.
