It is impossible for me to tell you exactly how many years your son may serve in jail. It sounds like your son was arrested for 1st degree robbery which typically have a bail amount of $100,000. Since he has two case, the bail would be $200,000. Generally, the jail term is 3, 6, or 9 years depending on many circumstances. As such, your son could be facing 18 years in jail. However, in reality, he will probably face lot less near 5 years or so. However, without knowing the circumstance, it is impossible to tell. Because he is illegal, there is probably an ICE hold. That means, even if he is innocent, he cannot get free because ICE/Immigration will take him in for deportation. Even if he volunteered to leave the country, he still has to serve the jail time. Of course, a good attorney can negotiate his jail time down. But, no matter how good the attorney, it is impossible to avoid jail time for the crime if he is guilty.
