Since his record is spotless, good student, etc., the lawyer might be able to make a good case for him and request a deferred prosecution. This means if he stays out of trouble for a specific period of time, maybe goes to some group (counseling or something like that) and whatever else the judge puts on him, the charge goes away. If he gets arrested for Jaywalking during that time, the old charge comes back and he's screwed. This is where he needs a lot of support (family, friends, teachers) to come to his aid and say good things about him in front of the judge. If he has plans to go into the military or has been accepted to a college, etc, his lawyer should also point that out. The conviction and sex offender status will seriously hamper his chances of a successful future. He needs make sure the judge understands that he is very sorry (maybe he can take out an ad in the local paper and make a public apology for his inappropriate actions at the community event), and that if given a second chance...it will never happen again.
Best of luck for him.

Women over 30 are dignified. They seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant. Of course, if you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get away with it.
For all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free". Here's an update for you. Nowadays 80% of women are against marriage, why? Because women realize it's not worth buying an entire Pig, just to get a little sausage.
What the mind can conceive....the body will achieve!
