The oldest son of Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., was arrested on charges of sexual exploitation of a child, authorities said Monday.
Tyler Boebert, 21, of New Castle, Colorado, was arrested Sunday on a warrant on “multiple charges,” the Garfield County Sheriff’s Office said in a press release.
Court records show he was arrested on five felony counts, including three counts of sexual exploitation of a child and two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

So I had a conversation with Chat GPT and it kinda went like this;
How old was Tyler at the time of the offence?
Tyler Boebert was 18 in January 2024 when he was accused of recording a video with a 17-year-old in New Castle, Colorado. The allegations led to multiple felony charges, including sexual exploitation of a child and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
Okay, Does Colorado have Romeo and Juliet laws?
Yes, Colorado has a close-in-age exception known as the Romeo and Juliet law. This law provides specific legal protections for consensual sexual relationships between minors and young adults who are close in age.
Age of Consent
The age of consent in Colorado is 17. This means that individuals aged 17 and older cannot legally engage in sexual activity with anyone under this age.
Will this help Tyler?
Probably not. The reports say Tyler Boebert was 18 and the other person was 17, but he’s charged with sexual exploitation of a child, which usually turns on making/sharing sexual images or video, not just the age gap. Close-in-age rules generally don’t shield image-exploitation charges.
So, there we have it. Let’s see how the politician spins this to maintain a two tiered justice system.
I have absolutely NO empathy at all towards her or her family. Wishing us life imprisonment and/or the death penalty?…preventing us to access emergency shelters?…sponsoring a bill that prevents surrogacy to people convicted as sex offenders?….and now her very own son is in the hot seat for the very same, if not worst crimes allegations that some of us have committed. Maybe, if her son is found guilty, it would change her mind about her skewed perceptions of sex offenders and she would come down to earth and think about all the harm and pain she caused and start supporting rational laws for sex offenders. No, is not that I am wishing ill or harm to these people, but ” what goes around, comes around” and ” karma is a bitch ” they say, Who knows, maybe she will be an ardent supporter of our recently filed SO challenge because we do need it. Either way, let’s see what comes out of this case, it will surely be entertaining.
im sure he will get a get out of registry free card.. they always do.
