Your allegation has to have credible evidence attached to it. The parents’ claims *might* have had such credibility, had they not been in the pay of a tabloid newspaper and had the alleged victim not flatly contradicted them within 24 hours.
No evidence, no justification for intrusive searches. A very valuable restriction on the State’s power to interfere in the lives of private individuals.

So if somebody said that X had searched for "child XXX", they wouldn't be raided? I could give the reported details of the case I mentioned, but that would bring up another whole can of worms and issue in hand would get sidetracked.
The mother reported to the police the existence of a picture. That should've been evidence enough to INVESTIGATE. Who else would have access to the necessary records? The BBC won't, yet they're the ones expected to do any investigating. So of course, the BBC will announce, "no evidence found"/
Cover up, all around.
