Child's friend accused of Sexual Assault

Child's friend was accused of sexual assault - not sure details - a detective called to discuss details with my son as a witness. He asked me not to tell my son they are going to talk until before the meeting and not to discuss with the child or their family?

Do I let my son talk to the Detective?
Do I talk to this child's parents first?

1. Do I let my son talk to the Detective?
2. Do I talk to this child's parents first?

1. With an attorney present.
2. Why would you do anything to possibly hamper a criminal investigation?

You should hire an attorney for your son. Your son should say nothing to anyone without his attorney's okay.

Please keep all of your related posts to a single thread. Thank you.

2. Why would you do anything to possibly hamper a criminal investigation?

1. was leaning towards talking to a lawyer first
2. - the accused has been a friend for 3+ years and I know the parents - he is 16

Good idea.

2. - the accused has been a friend for 3+ years and I know the parents - he is 16

Doesn't matter. You shouldn't do anything to hamper a criminal investigation.

So you want to risk being charged criminally and needing an attorney for yourself?

So according to your other post, your son posted a video to youtube that included his penis.

And your son also has a friend who has been charged with sexual assault.

So these are two separate issues?
