This seems like an almost perfect use case for one-way image hashing.

  It’s not really a tech problem? They obviously have people that are allowed to look at the stuff, so they could look for evidence themselves. The total number of victims should also be quite manageable, especially if you know the timeframe, location, camera etc to narrow it down? From what the yandex image search can do, I believe a simple photo of the alleged scene of the crime might be enough. The problem, above, is that it’s the wrong person “investigating” this. You won’t get much support trying to find your stolen bike. Vigilante CP investigator sets of wvwey alarm bell there is.

    > The problem, above, is that it’s the wrong person “investigating” this. I don't follow. If there was a web interface, and I could upload an image of myself, a copy of my passport, my phone statement (that proves my phone number is linked to me) and estimated time slot and I dunno what else. And I get back a link to my phone to download the video in which _I am featured_. Why is that an issue? Why can't that be setup on a official government website? Extending that to a case where the legal guardian is requesting on behalf of the child doesn't add anything novel, and doesn't imply vigilantism.
