敲榨 doesn't seem to be much in dicts. My first reaction would have been "miswrite".
But 敲榨勒索 does appear (Z, various chengyudian) as a variant of 敲詐勒索.
Also various uses of 敲榨 on the web, some of them in books and other reputable material.

what sense of "wring"?
could be "wring clothes" but I have no evidence of that.
