He is facing conspiracy drug charges and is being pressured to tell to get less time. He's worried about the information backfiring on him and building a case against him self. What should he do?
I am going to assume from your quesiton that federal charges have been filed, and he has an attorney, and the attorney has advised him that if he cooperates he might receive a reduction of sentence through a 5K. If thats the case, it is important that he discuss this thoroughly with his attorney. I can't advise you and I would say that no one can advise an individual in this situation thorugh the internet.
If there are no charges filed or he does not have an attorney he should consult with an attorney immediately who is experienced in federal criminal defense.
