Yeah, just drop the whole thing like a hot potato and clean house. This is why you don't fool around with teenagers and drugs.

Hey no news yet, so as they say "no news is good news." One development though is my friend's mom called him last night. He goes to college fairly close to his house, and since his finals just ended, his mom called him yesterday morning asking if he wanted her to pick him up and take him home. He said that he wanted to stay in the dorms for a couple more days since most of his friends were still in the dorms. She said okay that's fine, then she calls three times later in the night. He doesn't answer and she leaves a voice mail saying that it's better if he comes home now and that there's something she needs to talk to him about. My friend's brother spoke to his mom last night as well and noted that her tone didn't seem unusually upset/sad and that is sounded normal.
So the first thing I think is that the girl's dad called his mom. In order to do that he must have found my friend's last name, which is weird since I didn't think he really knew anything about my friend. Also he originally called my friend last Friday and Saturday night, so why would he wait until yesterday (Wednesday) to talk to her unless it took him that long to find out my friend's information and his mom's number?
So although he's not yet in trouble with the law, he may be in trouble with his mom. He's got a clean record and has never gotten into trouble with the law before, so his mom thinks he's a good guy and all that. Without knowing what exactly the dad might have told my friend's mom, what should he say when he calls her back? Should he deny the whole thing and say it's some sort of prank? Should he say that he lost his phone for a few days last week and someone must have contacted the dad's daughter using his phone? My friend is adamant about not telling his mom the truth for obvious reasons that that would crush his mom and she would start to think of him as a drug user and maybe even get him drug tested and what not. He's over 18 so technically she can't do anything to him, yet he is still financially dependent on her so he wants to be as smart on the phone as possible with her. Any ideas for when he calls her back later tonight? The best thing might be for him not to say anything, like you'll have been saying all along, but I don't know how his mom would react to him saying nothing.

If he admits to his mom what happened they can get an indictment with that when the mom tells the police.
Basically if it was my pops I'd tell him the truth, but my father isn't an idiot.
Basically the same rules regarding cops apply to your mom, and if your mom will tell the police what you told her they can use that to arrest you/indict you. If your mom is like most people she will rat you out in 5 seconds, even if she tells you she won't. Deal with your own mother, but don't think that some "she said he said" bullshit won't be admissable when they are deciding to indict your ass with felonies. (and don't think they won't subpoena her to rat you out in court if you go for a trial- where before she had no evidence now she would)
If your mother loves you and isn't an idiot, she only cares that you are safe. Reassure her. If she's an idiot and thinks the law is helpful or that you should talk to the law and cooperate then your in trouble and will have tension.
Or contact the prosecutor and offer to testify against the drug dealer and teach the father just how stupid he's being to push this when his daughter is the one dealing. (just kidding, its wrong and would hurt you legally)

So reassure her that it is all true but that I am safe legally or reassure her that it is all one big misunderstanding? Everything else you said makes sense.

My friend just got off the phone with her. Turns out she was just worried about the swine flu going around and wanting to tell my friend to be safe. Thanks for the help anyway.
