Lauren Boebert's son charged with child abuse in incident she described as a ‘miscommunication'
Rep. Lauren Boebert's son has been charged with child abuse following an incident involving her grandson that she described as a 'miscommunication.' Tyler Boebert, 20, the eldest son of the MAGA congresswoman, was cited for criminal negligence where no death or injury occurred, which is a misdemeanor, for the July 11 incident, according to Windsor Police Department records obtained by Denver Westword. Authorities have not yet shared details about the incident, which the 38-year-old congresswoman brushed off as 'a miscommunication on monitoring my young grandson that recently led to him getting out of the house.' In a statement, the congresswoman described her son's legal trouble as a 'one-time incident,' noting there was 'no injury or physical abuse involved.' Child Protective Services met with the family, the congresswoman added. It's not the first run-in with the law for the congresswoman's 20-year-old son, whose girlfriend became pregnant with his child when he was just 17 years old. In September of 2022, Tyler Boebert flipped his father's SUV into a creek, leaving the person in his passenger seat with multiple concussions and a severely lacerated hand. He was ticketed for careless driving. The case was eventually dropped down to a 'defective vehicle for headlights' ticket under a plea deal. Then, in January 2024, he called the police to report that his father, Jayson, was assaulting him, leading to his arrest. During the incident, Jayson allegedly 'pushed Tyler to the ground and pushed his thumb into his mouth,' according to the arrest affidavit. A month later, Tyler was slapped with more than a dozen felony charges for a series of thefts from vehicles – and for using stolen credit cards at local gas stations. Tyler Boebert pleaded guilty last October to a single charge of attempting to commit identity theft and was given a two-year deferred judgment, allowing his felony to be cleared from his record after completing his 24-month probation term. He was required to complete 80 hours of community service and was banned from using controlled substances. It was not immediately clear whether the most recent citation would be a breach of his probation. He is due in Weld County Court on September 8. Lauren Boebert did not immediately return The Independent's request for comment.

Questions raised over Lauren Boebert's financial disclosure filing - which includes no financial disclosures
Lauren Boebert has raised eyebrows after filing an annual financial disclosure that disclosed…nothing. The firebrand Republican congresswoman's filing contained no assets, no income from her book, no bank accounts, and no mortgage on a home. Boebert's disclosure, or lack of, caused surprise among reporters, including Colorado Public Radio reporter Caitlyn Kim, who wrote: 'This is a first for me.' However, others pointed out that Boebert was recently divorced from her husband, Jayson Boebert, and that her other previous assets were listed under his name. In past filings, the Colorado rep's only listed asset was income from her book, My American Life, along with a joint bank account. Boebert has recently sparked dating rumors with singer and fellow MAGA acolyte Kid Rock. Under federal ethics rules, members of Congress must disclose assets worth more than $1,000 and any income over $200 from outside sources. Boebert's latest filing does not even list book royalties, which suggests that either the income has stopped or was too low to report. Members of Congress earn a salary of $174,000 which must be disclosed, yet the absence of any other income streams or assets raise the question of how she is supporting herself financially. "Blows my mind how poorly some members of Congress manage their own finances. Divorce notwithstanding, it's wild to me that a 38 year old woman who makes $174,000/yr has a net worth of $0," wrote investigative reporter Andrew Kerr. Bryan Metzger, senior politics reporter at Business Insider, added: 'With the caveat that she makes $174,000 per year and doesn't have to disclose the value of any personal residence, Boebert is likely one of the poorest members of Congress.'
