According to the Rifle Police Department, Tyler Boebert, 18, was handed five felony charges, which includes four for criminal possession of ID documents involving multiple victims, and one conspiracy to commit charge.  

The son of the Colorado Republican representative also faces misdemeanor charges of four first-degree criminal trespassing of an automobile with intent to commit a crime, four charges of identity theft, possession with intent to use, and two charges for contributing to the delinquency of a minor. 

Additionally, in 2022, Boebert’s son was given a “careless driving causing bodily injury” ticket after he flipped his father’s SUV into a Garfield County creek bed. 

The arrest of Tyler Boebert follows recent news headlines regarding a string of controversies that his mother Lauren has faced in the past year related to her ex-husband, Jayson Boebert. 

Lauren Boebert was granted a temporary restraining order against her ex-husband this month after she claimed that he allegedly threatened to harm her and entered the family’s home without permission. However, Jayson claimed that he only entered the home in order to clean it, preparing for the arrival of Boebert’s grandmother. He also claimed that his ex-wife only got the restraining order to “justify” her move to a new congressional district. 

The Colorado congresswoman switched to a district that is primarily Republican in December, avoiding another tough re-election bid. She previously won it by a slim margin against her Democrat challenger back in 2022. 

On Wednesday morning, the Garfield County Sheriff’s Office listed Tyler Boebert as an inmate in the county jail with no bond amount or release date set.
