It was a combination of the (1) court order and (2) the juvenile court proceedings combined that appear to give grounds for charging the victim with revealing her attackers' names. Juvenile court proceedings are confidential in every state. Witnesses (including victims) who appear in juvenile proceedings are informed that the names of all juveniles party to the case must remain confidential. This is both to protect the juveniles involved (victim, defendants, and witnesses) and to prevent their immature acts of youth from haunting them as adults (assuming no recidivism as an adult).
