Yep. All. Now if some of the other participants in these "orgies" were partners in this lawsuit, they would add credibility to it.
Don't be shocked if you find some gold-diggers who don't have a ticket trying to jump on this gravy train.

Probably no kind of case is more frequently subject to false allegations than sex crimes, yet they are often relatively easy to prove because of special legal rules designed to assure as many convictions as possible. Not saying they don't happen, or are terrible when they do, just that I don't think its ever safe to assume a particular allegation is true, particularly very stale ones in civil cases where a plaintiff has a big payoff to gain.
