I (M22) have been friends with G for around 8 years, we’re like brothers.

April 2024, I was at work and someone called the store phone (yes he called the store phone) and was freaking out asking to speak to me, I answered. It was him he told me “They took my stuff, my phone, my laptop, my pc” he wouldn’t say who. I called him on his grandpas cell, and he said at first it was the state police. And he wouldn’t say what.

Come to find out he tells me a few days later, he tells me straight up that he was raided by the FBI for CP (Child stuff). He said they went to his apartment where he lives with his grandpa, detained his grandpa, and took his electronics, and they went to his community college and found him in class and told him “He needs to lawyer up” according to him they had a whole Manila File folder on him.

That was last April. They have not returned his devices and he swears he did nothing. I have remained in contact with him, we game sometimes, we talk and text but he swears he did nothing at all.

That’s the advice. Legally, what can happen to him, what can happen TO ME? Should I cut contact. I just feel bad because we’ve known each other for awhile and are best friends but I don’t want to be involved with something I can’t control.
