Who are "Anshei Rachil"?

1.

Radak: They go tale-bearing from the weak to the strong 1 , in order to spill innocent blood. Malbim - this is one of the three ways in which they murdered. The others are via the Nesi'im (6), and via bribery (12). These correspond to three Midos that remove a person from the world. Rechilus corresponds to envy, bribery corresponds to Ta'avah, and the Nesi'im correspond to honor.
