Tell him not to sign anything and speak with an immigration attorney as soon as possible to see what his options are and if there arent any the attorney will help negotiate voluntary departure to preserve options to return in the future.

Is your fiance still detained? If yes, contact an immigration attorney. If no, he should seek to adjust status based on his relationship with you (a U.S. citizen).

If he does not have a valid nonimmigrant status, he is deportable. If you marry him and file for him, then he may be able to get his permanent residence here in the US. He may need to adjust status in immigration court. There is a higher burden of proof for the validity of the marriage if you marry in deportation proceedings.
