Tyler Jay Boebert, 18, son of United States Representative Lauren Boebert, was apprehended by Rifle police around 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday in connection with a series of vehicle trespasses and property thefts in Rifle.
Formally charged, Tyler Boebert faces four felony counts related to the criminal possession of identification documents belonging to multiple victims, along with one felony count alleging conspiracy to commit a felony. Additionally, he is confronted with more than 15 other charges, ranging from misdemeanors to petty offenses.
In a statement conveyed via email to news outlets on Wednesday, Rep. Lauren Boebert expressed her sadness regarding her son’s confrontation with criminal charges and his struggles. She emphasized the importance of accountability for his actions, acknowledging the difficulties he has encountered.
“I love my son Tyler, who has faced significant public challenges as a young man and has garnered attention that he did not seek,” Boebert’s statement reads. “It pains me to witness my child grappling with this situation, particularly considering the numerous opportunities he has had to rectify his path. I remain steadfast in my support for him. As an adult and father, Tyler will assume responsibility for his choices and should be answerable for them, just like any other individual.”
This arrest compounds a series of legal issues that have arisen for the Boebert family this year, including incidents involving Rep. Lauren Boebert and her ex-husband, Jayson Boebert, on January 6th and January 9th.
On January 9th, an incident prompted Silt Police to visit the Boebert household concerning a confrontation involving Jayson Boebert and Tyler Boebert. The altercation reportedly included extensive alcohol consumption by Jayson Boebert and the presence of a firearm. Subsequently, Jayson Boebert was apprehended and faced charges of prohibited weapon use, harassment, and third-degree assault. Additionally, he was detained for an outstanding warrant related to the January 6th incident, which included allegations of disorderly conduct, third-degree trespassing, and obstruction of a peace officer.
