Its not that they are charging because the lease wasn’t signed, its that they are charging the legally responsible party. Having roommates can get complicated. Even if she wasn’t directly responsible for the damage, she is still liable since her name is on the lease.
I don’t think management is trying to bully your friend. I’m sure it comes down to the fact that your friend is the one on the contract. This may be a learning lesson, but never ever let someone move in until after they sign the lease and are legally responsible too.
Basically, your friend is caught holding the bag.
