It's a legal doctrine holding that a person placing someone in danger is legally accountable for harm not only to that person, but to anyone attempting to rescue them as well.
It may be simpler to give an example. Snidely Whiplash ties up Nell Fenwick and leaves her to die of exposure at the bottom of a rock quarry. If Dudley Do-Right comes by, hears Nell's cries for help, tries to climb down to rescue her and gets hurt in the process, then Snidely can be held legally responsible for Dudley's death or injury as well as Nell's... even though Snidely didn't actually do anything to Dudley directly.
It applies even if the original harm were due to negligence rather than being intentional... say, Snidely was employing Nell as a worker in the quarry, and she became trapped by a rockslide.
