trampler

One who crushes

A trampler is someone or something that tramples—that steps heavily on things, crushing or damaging them underfoot.

The word usually carries connotations of carelessness or aggression: a trampler of flowers, a trampler of rights.

It appears more often in figurative contexts than literal ones.
