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.

Imagine that. ;)

“criminal possession of a financial device”
'Had to look up what is considered a financial device…
Under 18-5-702 CRS, it is a criminal offense in Colorado to use, possess, or manufacture a blank credit card. Unlawful use of a financial transaction device encompasses credit cards, debit cards, ATM cards, or other financial devices. This crime can be a petty offense, misdemeanor, or a felony.‘’

Yeah… It sounds like he and his minor friends stole 4+ wallets from various (probably unlocked) cars that each contained someone’s ID & credit cards and at least some of the wallets also had cash.
$20 says this piece of shit starts bitching about “respecting her privacy”, while telling others how they should live.
You forgot to add “again” to your sentence.
Boebert’s hypocritical “family values” family is the least surprising thing in this article. I’m more surprised that Colorado has a town called Rifle.
I’m more surprised he wasn’t shot while breaking into cars in a town called rifle. I’m sure she’d be totally fine with it if he was, right? Or is that only minorities that deserve death for theft?
It won’t be long before whites are a minority in this country. So I guess then he would deserve death for even the smallest of infractions.
Did I really need to add /s?
Did I really need to add /s
Yes. Right wingers say that kind of thing earnestly all the time. Don’t expect people to give you the benefit of the doubt when you start in with ‘white replacement’ rhetoric.
I get where you are coming from. I was speaking of demographic shifts that have been projected for years.
Oh and just like reddit, anyone who wants to use a little brain power could take 2 seconds and peruse my comment history. Nothing I’ve ever said would have me confused with a maggat.
Ah yes. Downvote legit conversation. This is how lemmy ends up looking like reddit or twitter. Lots of people will just stop contributing to the convo if this community as a whole isn’t capable of adult discourse.
Oh and unlike reddit, we can see who downvotes what on lemmy. Maybe I’ll start calling out the assholes as a way to kill time when I am bored.
Oh my God this nonce again.
They have such a victim complex.
You aren’t contributing to the conversation my dude. You are making the conversation about you.No one is taking the time to peruse your comment history lol… Just add the /s if you want to make a sarcastic joke 🙄
Are you done?

You seem like an alright person. Just a recommendation, now is a pretty good time for self reflection. Your comment didn’t sound at all sarcastic and there’s no reason for anyone to check your history. Just mark it with /s next time so we know.
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.

Less to do with the mid west, and more to do with the Wild West. It’s an old ranching town.
Like Pueblo, which is basically just a town called Town.
There seem to be a lot of geographic locations named Rifle around there, but it looks like the name originated at Rifle Creek which got its name from someone finding a rifle along its banks in the 19th century. If Wikipedia can be believed, that is.
I trust Wikipedia more than the news now.
One has to wonder if the kid is doing it on purpose to get back at their mom, not that she probably doesn’t deserve it, or that it couldn’t be the opposite, where he thinks he’s untouchable.
Ah, an even better mom than Sarah Palin.
Hey guys, be fair. Maybe he was just stealing to support the baby he had with a child who was "over 14, so it wasn’t statutory rape, we totally swear.’

He was 17. IIRC, it would’ve still been illegal for him to have sex with her if she was 14 or younger, so they were very careful to specify that she was “over 14.”
RIP news reporters. RIP anybody wanting to pay for news.
Uh huh, sure she was.
Every time anyone shares information about someone they are dating they lead with unsolicited information of why the relationship is technically legal. It’s how you know the love is pure. \s
I forgot he had a kid. If having a kid doesn’t grow you up, nothing will.
Give him the Hunter Biden treatment.
No thank you. I don’t want to see MTG holding up a picture of his dick.

I have successfully avoided seeing Hunter’s (apparently impressive) penis.
Plus, there’s precedent consider Lauren’s ex-husband exposed himself to teenage girls (including Lauren) in a bowling alley.
You can take the boy out of the trailer, but you cain’t take the trailer out of the boy.
What is a “financial device”?
My guess is a credit card reader
In this case probably a stolen credit or debit card.
https://law.justia.com/codes/colorado/2022/title-18/article-5/part-9/section-18-5-903/
1 . A person commits criminal possession of a financial device if the person has in his or her possession or under his or her control any financial device that the person knows, or reasonably should know, to be lost, stolen, or delivered under mistake as to the identity or address of the account holder.
All of the charges look like CC fraud
Thank you for looking it up!
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree eh, Boebert dysfunctionaltards?
Hunter BidenBunter Hiden
Fuck Putin.
Depose him, that might be better.
Look past her chaotic family life… and focus on her clown show in Congress?
Yes but no, her progenitor Sarah Palin set the stage for this bs. Family Values and abstinence only got Bristol knocked up at 17, unmarried of course.
Hold these shitbags accountable for all their actions.
“Yes but no” what?
I’m just pointing out that her tenure in Congress is also a total mess, so I don’t know what shifting the focus away from her family even does for her
Why is anyone surprised? Isn’t that her family values? Take what you want and sneer when you get caught?
Lol these people are so trashy
Just looking at the picture you know the whole family are just the worst. Like Ricky Bobby’s kids from Talladega nights. Poor kids probably never got taught how to behave properly.
