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.

    I think people often misunderstand “family values” from redneck trash families. They’re not hypocrites, generally, in this. Teenagers being trashy happens regardless of parents political leanings, the real hypocrisy would be if they went to the abortion clinic. They usually don’t. It’d be a lot smarter, but then they’d have to change their views when confronted with the consequences, and that’s horribly hypocritical. Person should maybe really think things through before it’s convenenient.
