Believe me when I say that it is not my intent to blame the victim, but it is a shame that she didn't come forward sooner. I'm sure many more women were victims of that POS after her. I hope that these stories will influence future victims to come forward much sooner.

Wow, you just missed the entire point of her essay.
It took years for her to come to the realization that she was being manipulated and abused by Weinstein, which all came to a head when she had to perform a nude scene that wasn't intended to be a part of the film. It was done on Weinstein's insistence. She's scarred by it, still.
If she had come forward sooner, Weinstein would have ruined her career. That's how much power Weinstein held.
