That may be difficult for her to hear/do but I will certainly pass the message on.

What do you suggest for my friend who believes (has had flashbacks) that she's been molested by her father when she was very young. Her father, who struggles with autism, still wishes to be close with his daughter though maintains a great distance to avoid discomfort on anyone's behalf. She has not opened up to her father that she is now aware of the past occurrences, and is very unsettled by it all... she's no longer living at home, but is still semi financially dependent on him as she fends her way through college. Should she bring this conversation to her fathers table and tackle it?

The police were involved years ago, and then it came back around to say that my friends sister had been lying about the whole ordeal. I believe she did that because she felt as if she had torn apart the family. But the issue still remains from many years ago, and even if he is not actively molesting them currently it still is unsettling to my friend. I don't think she wants to get the police involved, though she does want to talk it over with her father.
