English term or phrase: with the active participation of
As a rule, the retribution for one's bad deeds happens while the culprit is still alive.
Usually with the active participation of those whom the culprit wronged.

Don't understand the second sentence, partly because it's an elliptical sentence - what is omitted? please rephrase it. Thanks a lot!
