Well it depends where he got her pregnant NY or PA. How old she was at the time he got her pregnant also factors in as well. In PA the age of consent is 16, in NY 17. Since he hasn't been charged my guess is he won't.
Well if you don't take her in she will have to live some where. You could just help her financially. Then again she should try to complete her education. What you do is pretty much up to you. She could compel your son to pay support.
If you have any questions feel free to contact me.
