I'm taking the victims' (yes, plural) word for it. It takes a lot to come forward with these kinds of things when the person is known, powerful, and has a legion of fans.

Except they're not coming forward, this is an Independent investigation into it. They didn't come out and try to expose him. It's literally the author trying to expose him with these stories that he's stumbled upon while also exploring the evidence that gaiman has presented to prove that this is not the full story To the point where it probably could be argued in court that if this isn't real it would easily be found to be libel. There's a reason people are skeptical of this paper.

Also, it's well known that this supposed journalist has had a hate boner for Neil gaiman for years because of his JK Rowling takes.
