He should get a lawyer. He should NOT talk with the police about this without a lawyer.

Hire the best criminal defense attorney you can afford. These are serious charges.

He has the right to remain silent. Only idiots talk to investigators/cops. Remember, no matter what he says it will be twisted around and used against him later.

Get a sex crime lawyer asap as he's facing 20 years if convicted.

If you cannot afford a lawyer, get a public defender. If you can afford to hire, lets discuss representation. These cases are possible life sentences - do not pretend otherwise. This is the most important thing in your life. Treat it correctly or suffer. I have recently had a rape case dismissed by the DA prior to trial.
