Legal Question in Criminal Law in Georgia
My son and two other boys are being called into questioning for rape of a 17 year old girl. The boys are all 18. Should I allow him to go in and say he has an attorney or just tell the detective on the phone that he will not be coming in? I just found out today and will be looking for an attorney asap. This is in Georgia. The other two boys say it was consensual and that my son was not involved, but he was at the house. The girl has changed her story 3 times with the final story not involving my son. However, he is still being called in to questioning. Not sure what to do.

Get an attorney soon as in IMMEDIATELY and do not let him see the detective until and unless his lawyer says he should. Since not coming in may lead to his arrest, and the defendant who lawyers up first may have an advantage, make sure your son is the one who gets a lawyer first.
Just tell the detective that he will NOT be making a statement. See website for info on retaining the right attorney: http://www.lawrencelewispc.com/pages.php?go=pinfo&PID=38
Good luck
