NUM363 One who causes another to sin is held responsible for the punishment that person will receive. God told Moshe to avenge the harm caused the Children of Israel by the Midianites.

From here we see that one who causes another person to sin is held responsible for the punishment that person will receive. (Ohr Yohail, vol. 3, p. 188).
