I've commented on this elsewhere, but it still comes back to these thoughts.

The supposed 'victim' is now at least 20 years old, so why are their parents involved at all?

If said victim is clear-headed enough to hire a reputable legal firm to represent them, how much of a strung-out crack-head can they be?

Ask three people to define 'explicit' and you'll get three different answers. The police, on the other hand, have to work to a specific, legal definition. So what the parents think was explicit might well fall short of that legal definition.

Given that the Sun was the last paper to stop publishing a daily topless photo (of a young lady, of course), and only after a long rearguard action, their involvement in this sorry tale smacks of hypocrisy at best.
