No, I believe she is the accuser, one making the accusation.

The technical term for CGM is the complainant. To refer to her as the victim presupposes that a crime has occurred. Until the DA has proven beyond a reasonable doubt that a crime did indeed occur, referring to the complainant as the victim is premature.
