No, you do not have to meet with him and you do not have to speak with him. Yes, he has the right to provide the police with any evidence he may have of a crime being committed. It is up to the police to decide what to do with it. I believe most criminal attorneys (which I am not) would advise you to not meet with this person, even if you have done nothing wrong.
Your rights are exercise your 5th Amendment right to SHUT UP and discuss this with no one but your attorney. Hire one now.
