You just raised yet another reason they may just be coming forward. Ethically, and likely per policy, they should have spoken up long ago and, for whatever reason, failed to do so. Hence, going public later would expose them to discipline, hence their not coming forward later as well. In that instance either their conscience finally got to them or they figured they were going to be found out anyways and finally came forward.
