This tactic is called "flip the script"!
It's a type of projection where you make the victim the perp and the perp the victim. This is a known tactic of psychopaths, narcissists and pedophiles.
Victim blaming is very effective at silencing, gaslighting, invalidating, projecting shame and frustrating the victim. This is effectively a secondary narcissistic assault against the victim.
The people doing this are showing clearly that they know who is at fault and what the game is. They are knowingly assaulting a victim of assault to aid in covering up the crime. This by definition makes them conspirators and liable to criminal charges.
Learn how these pathological tactics work. Learn their entire playbook and they become powerless.
