You would be committing the fallacy known as "tu quoque." If other people did something wrong, that is irrelevant to whether or not you did something wrong.
Imagine that I murder your children. And you have the nerve to complain about it! And I point out the fact that other people have murdered people's children, too. Are you going to accept that as a satisfactory justification for me murdering your children?

Now, if what you did was murder some asshole who has been bothering us with shit posting, just don't tell us where you buried the bodies and keep your mouth shut, and we cannot rat you out.
