Sexual Abuse Support Group

I need some advice please guys. My younger sister and i were both sexually abused from an early age by my mum's partner. They split up a couple of years ago and my sister has finally had the courage to speak up about it and we are due in court next month and he is currently being charged with 8 counts of indecent assault and one charge of sexual abuse all against my sister. The problem i have is when the police came to take my statement i couldn't remeber much as i had blocked alot of it out in my mind and so they didn't press charges on him against me as well. The thing is i am now starting to remember more and that he did to me and i don't know wheter to go to the police and tell them, as they think the evidence they already have is more than sufficient. Also i don't know if i can put my family through it all again as we've all been to hell this past year and back worrying about my sister and things have only just started to calm down. So basically my dilemma is, is better all round for me to keep quiet if he's likely to get put away anyway or speak out and rock the boat again? My biggest concern is that i don't say anything and he gets off and if i had said something it could've made all the difference!
Let me know what you guys think!
