The girl has committed unlawful sex with a minor, assuming that they were in California at the time. And the boy's parents are at least arguably committing blackmail.

The girl is looking at a possible charge of sex with a minor...A 261.5 pc. and possible other offenses. What his parents are doing is terrible and possibly extortion...Besides being unconsciencable...Have her call my office and we can talk about it. I wish you well...David Wallin
