Lauren Boebert’s eldest son Tyler Boebert is facing a misdemeanor charge of child abuse after an incident with the congresswoman’s grandson.

Tyler, who is 20 years old, was charged on July 11 for an offense related to criminal negligence where no one was harmed, as reported by documents from the Windsor Police Department and cited by Westworld.

Congresswoman Boebert described the incident as a ‘miscommunication on monitoring my young grandson that recently led to him getting out of our house,’ according to the publication.

The MAGA advocate mentioned that her son’s legal issue was an isolated event, and the Boebert family has had discussions with Child Protective Services.

Tyler welcomed a son in June 2023 when he was a teenager, making Boebert a grandmother at the age of 36. 

The Republican said in a statement to the outlet: ‘Tyler has been doing a great job getting his life on track as a father and citizen over the past year. 

‘Unfortunately, this event stems from a miscommunication on monitoring my young grandson that recently led to him getting out of our house. 

‘As the citation states, there was absolutely no injury or physical abuse involved.

‘Our family has already met with CPS to ensure we are continuing to provide a safe environment for my boys and my grandson.

‘I am confident this is a one-time incident that we have addressed as a family.’ 

This is not the young man’s first time in legal hot water.

In 2024, the congresswoman’s son was charged with 22 counts relating to a string of vehicle break-ins and property theft. His most serious charges were four felony counts for criminal possession of an ID and conspiracy to commit a felony.

Boebert entered a guilty plea in October 2024 to one count of attempted identity theft, a class five felony, as part of a plea agreement. The remaining charges were dismissed. 

After a protracted court battle, in which Tyler claimed at one point he could not afford a lawyer, the judge in the case showed the teenager some grace.

Judge John F. Neiley told Tyler during his latest hearing: ‘I don’t know a lot about you, but I know you are a young man.’

‘You were 18 when you committed this offense. You have no prior criminal history, and this is an opportunity you should not squander.’

Tyler was told that if he completed two years of probation on good terms with the court, he could have the charge wiped, allowing him to evade a felony on his record.

However, July’s citation may throw that good record into the balance.

He is still on probation for those charges – but it is unclear if the latest child abuse incident violates the terms of his probation. 

In 2022, a friend alleged that he had been injured because Tyler was driving ‘so f***king fast’ that he flipped the vehicle in which they were both traveling.

Noble D’Amato then accused the Boebert family of ‘covering up’ the incident from which Tyler walked with a simple careless driving ticket which was later dropped to a ‘defective vehicle for headlights’ ticket. 

The teen also had to go to court-ordered driving school.

In 2024, Tyler called the police on his own father, Jayson, telling them that he was abusing him – leading to his dad’s arrest.

Lauren Boebert is serving her third term as a member of Congress and her first as Representative for Colorado’s Fourth Congressional District. 

She is no stranger to the spotlight – previously making headlines for her whirlwind of a personal life.

In 2023, Boebert was thrown out of a Beetlejuice performance in Denver after audience members complained she was vaping near a pregnant woman and groping her date, Aspen bar owner Quinn Gallagher.

The same year, her rocky split from her now ex-husband Jayson was riddled with legal woes and conflict.

Jayson had claimed Boebert punched him when they met to try to get on better terms when he was arrested in 2024 for domestic violence. He later recanted that claim.

In a separate incident, Jayson was accused of assaulting their 18-year-old son Tyler and taking out a gun as the son moved to call the authorities in a fight over laundry.
