The charges you describe indicate there is more to this than just spray painting a car. To be honest, it sounds to me like he needs a lawyer. There is too much at stake not to have one.

Re: crimianl law/vandlism

With no record, it is likely that he could obtain some sort of probation pre-trial. However, if he did not have anything to do with the situation, he will need a trial. If he loses after a jury trial, given the charges, it is likely that he will get some jail time. It is difficult to say without having all of the details. He is charged with at least one felony.

You definitely need to get a lawyer. If you have any questions, feel free to call me.
