I've seen "slut-shamed" used transitively. 

Google "slut-shamed her," "slut-shamed me," "slut-shamed that slut," etc.

CNN just now:

"Sounds like she was victim-blaming some of these women that have come
forward."

Possibly the first time I've noticed one of these constructions used
transitively.
