Unhappy Who did what to Who?? in this sentence.

i've just read this sentence, and feel confused at who did what to who?

she feared they would victimize her for squealing on their pals.
(note:i've checked that squeal here means :inform on someone to the police or a person in authority)

Try this:

Mary feared John and Sam would victimize Mary - because Mary squealed on John and Sam's pals.
