In this case, most likely correct. Time has passed and most importantly he was young when it happened. But the FAA can and will deny/defer certification for non-driving criminal history based on psychological grounds, and any real crimes (theft, fraud, assault, etc) much after age 17 will probably trigger that. Youthful misbehavior they'll attribute to youth unless they reason to think otherwise.
He may need to pay for a psych eval.
Hard to answer the question without knowing the ages at which the incidents occurred.
