If he did not know the gun was in the vehicle, it makes it defensible. Tough, but defensible.
Agree with Mr. Cassens. Get an attorney. Say nothing to the police or DA without one. There is also an affirmative defense for having a gun in a car. But talk to an attorney ASAP.
You need to get a good attorney, this is defensible case, as they have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt he knew the gun was in the car. He also needs to keep his mouth shut. Good luck.
