Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York

my son and his friend had weed. The friend gave the OK for his school friends to come to the house and purchase some, they had a joint and shared it for $10. The friends were brother and sister and the girl was under 17. the two boys are 17 but the friend is a 2nd time offender. Only the friend was arrested and charged with selling and child endangerment. my son was not. He believes if he turns himself in that the friend will get out of his charges since the pot was initially bought by my son.
