On the other, I would ask: Isn't this better? Having someone else's photo and location attached to your work means you would never be identified in public, not receive death threats, nor be at risk of swatting. And you get to keep collecting royalties on your duly attributed work in the meantime. It sounds like a blessing in disguise.
Please note, I'm not trying to belittle your experience or your work. What you went through was incredibly traumatic and deserves to be written about. I just fail to see the harm in this. If you really want to be recognized for your work, the fix is simple. Just supply Google with your photo and they will rectify it on the page.

But the people in the photos now run those risks in stead. That may be somewhat "better", depending on your morality, but most people would probably say: Not by very much.
