    Actually not too concerned about shaming, but rather, they should get a visit from the FBI, and or appropriate police type persons. Information should be gathered, and charges should be filed. Subsequent court case, etc, etc, given that we live in a civilized society, and we already have procedures for this sort of activity.

      I believe she asked that they not do that out of fear of retaliation.
