Lauren Boebert's Son Fails to Show in Court -- Unbeknownst to Mom

On Monday, April 10, Representative Lauren Boebert's eldest son, Tyler, was supposed to appear in court for a mandatory review hearing related to a September 2022 car crash that left a friend hospitalized and led to a misdemeanor charge of "careless driving causing bodily harm."

It would have been the last pit stop on Tyler's months-long road of legal drama, with the hearing centering on an order to attend the state's "Alive at 25" driver awareness program. Prosecutors in Glenwood Springs had dropped his case down to a "defective vehicle for headlights" ticket in a plea deal.

But according to the Garfield County Clerk's Office, Tyler didn't show.

To make matters worse, Colorado's 3rd Congressional District representative was unaware that her son had missed his court date. "She did not know," says a source in the Boebert camp.

In many cases, an arrest warrant is issued for a defendant who misses a court date. But that's unlikely to happen in Tyler's case. "The judge ordered the clerk to send a letter to the defendant with a stay of execution on the bench warrant," says Clerk of Court Dawn Garey.

18. Lauren Boebert missed court dates at least twice.

From The Denver Post 2020:

...

While she was being handcuffed for disorderly conduct, Boebert tried to twist away from police, according to deputies’ reports. She allegedly shouted that her arrest was unconstitutional, that “she had friends at Fox News and that the arrest would be national news.” It did not become national news.

Boebert was released from custody and told to appear in court that August but missed her court date because, as she told a judge, she forgot what day of the week it was. “I am now aware today is Friday,” she wrote on Aug. 28, 2015, hours after she was supposed to be in court.

The judge, Craig Henderson, rescheduled for later that year. But Boebert again was a no-show at a Nov. 20 hearing. In a handwritten note to the judge, she did not include a reason for her absence.

“I apologize for irresponsibly wasting the courts time with this matter. I want nothing more than to be finished with this case, as it is not something I keep on the forefront of my thinking,” she wrote.

I so disagree that their child has "no chance in hell." Of what? If it's of being born a Kennedy or Bush instead, would have to agree. Otherwise, their own not entirely functional families disprove that, and they all have long lives ahead to make what they will of them.

"Dad's" apparently changed plans to attend college in FL to study petroleum engineering at a local community college.

Not showing up for court?

Oh, yeah--his trashy mom!

Boebert was arrested twice in Mesa County in 2015. As first reported by Colorado Newsline, Boebert was detained on June 20, 2015, after a verbal altercation with police at Country Jam, a music festival near Grand Junction. Boebert, then 28 years old, allegedly shouted at people detained on suspicion of underage drinking, urging them to flee from police, which caused the young drinkers to become unruly.

:::snip:::

Boebert was released from custody and told to appear in court that August but missed her court date because, as she told a judge, she forgot what day of the week it was. “I am now aware today is Friday,” she wrote on Aug. 28, 2015, hours after she was supposed to be in court.

The judge, Craig Henderson, rescheduled for later that year. But Boebert again was a no-show at a Nov. 20 hearing. In a handwritten note to the judge, she did not include a reason for her absence.

:::snip:::

The court was less accommodating that time, records indicate. On Dec. 1, 2015, Boebert was arrested by sheriff’s deputies for failure to appear, according to Colorado Bureau of Investigation arrest records. The next month, the disorderly conduct charge was dismissed because there was “no reasonable likelihood of conviction should (the) case go to trial,” a prosecutor wrote at the time.

Failing to appear for court also landed Boebert in jail a year later. As first reported by the Colorado Times Recorder, Boebert was charged with careless driving and operating an unsafe vehicle after rolling her truck into a Garfield County ditch in the summer of 2016. They were minor traffic charges, but Boebert skipped an October court date.

She was booked into the Garfield County Jail on the morning of Feb. 13, 2017, for failure to appear and spent exactly 100 minutes as an inmate before being released on bond, according to sheriff’s office records. She later pleaded guilty to the unsafe vehicle charge, and the careless driving charge was dropped.
