How could we know what proof the DA has?
With a subpoena to the ISP and a record of the IP address, they can probably trace it back to your friend. If they are going through all this trouble then there must be a little more to it than simply giving out a number ... I wonder if some offers were made in her name to the effect of, "For a good time call me at ...."
Normally I can't see a DA wasting his time with a chat room prank ... something more is going on here if they are actually going ahead with this.

Apparently someone made a stink ... could be the girl's parents.
How old is the girl? If she is a minor, then it can make a lot of sense because that could have put her in some real potential physical danger!
Your friend should consult an attorney first thing Monday morning if he has not done so, yet.
What state is he in and what is the code section under which he has been charged?

It seems odd that they would go through all this trouble if even she wants to drop the charges. Maybe at the next hearing they will drop the matter.

For the same offense? If so, he needs to wake up and smell the coffee.
2917.21(B) No person shall make or cause to be made a telecommunication, or permit a telecommunication to be made from a telecommunications device under the person's control, with purpose to abuse, threaten, or harass another person.
This offense is a misdemeanor of the first degree and punishable, it seems, with jail time up to 180 days and a fine of up to $1,000. Community service would seem to be an option.
He needs to speak with an attorney.
