Lauren Boebert's son was arrested over a spate of thefts as his mom tries to convince voters to look past her chaotic family life
Lauren Boebert's son, Tyler Boebert, was arrested on Tuesday and is facing 22 charges, adding more chaos to a campaign overshadowed by family drama.
Rep. Lauren Boebert's 18-year-old son, Tyler Boebert, was arrested on Tuesday afternoon and is facing 22 charges, including several felony charges relating to a string of crimes in her Colorado district.
According to a Facebook post by the Rifle Police Department, the 18-year-old Boebert was arrested after a "recent string of vehicle trespass and property thefts" in Rifle, a town in Colorado's 3rd congressional district.
According to Garfield County Jail's records, the younger Boebert is facing four counts of criminal possession of a financial device, four counts of criminal possession of ID documents, and a count of conspiracy to commit a felony.
He's also charged with four misdemeanor counts of ID theft, three misdemeanor counts of first-degree criminal trespass, and three misdemeanor counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
In addition, he's also charged with three counts of the petty offense of theft of less than $300.

Boebert is a terrible legislator, but her kids’ behavior and life choices have little to do with the record and views by which her fitness to represent should be judged.
There are so many good reasons not to vote for her. It validates Republican attacks on Hunter Biden as “how the game is played.”
The least we can do is be a bit more nuanced about how we joke about it.
I think the big difference is that this kid is barely 19. There’s a good chance that this behavior started while he was still under her roof. There’s even the possibility that he’s still living with her, which means she turned a blind eye to it all.
In comparison, Hunter has been an adult for decades. He already has a long career as a lawyer. His actions are his own.
Yes but we can see what sort of people she and her family are by how they behave. These children almost certainly had no good role models, no mentors, and no real future to speak of. They were ejected from her body and left to fend for themselves.
Remember, the GOP wants EVERYONE to live like her and her family. So, yes, we can look at what she does at home and make some judgements on that.
