Republican congresswoman Lauren Boebert’s son Tyler has been hit with another child abuse charge after he allegedly allowed his two-year-old son to walk out of her home.
It is the second time in less than a year that the MAGA-supporting politician’s son has been charged with the offense.
Troubled Tyler, 20, was looking after his son – Boebert’s grandchild – when the tyke walked out of her Windsor, Co, home on Sunday, as reported by 9News.
He was charged of child abuse without injury – a misdemeanour.
Boebert (R-Colo) told 9News she was “very frustrated” at what happened, saying there was “no excuse.”
“A kind woman quickly and safely secured him, and authorities were called as a precaution,” she added.
Tyler, the eldest of Boebert’s four sons, was charged with child abuse following a July incident involving his son.
At the time, Boebert appeared to downplay the issue, describing it as a “one-time incident,” as reported by Denver Westword.
She said there was “no injury or physical abuse involved” but confirmed her family met with Child Protective Service officials.
Tyler is set to go on trial in April, according to reports.
Boebert’s son has had several run-ins with the law.
In Sept 2022, Tyler flipped his father’s SUV while driving, leaving his passenger with multiple concussions, according to reports.
He was ticketed for careless driving, but the case was eventually dropped down to a “defective vehicle for headlights” ticket under a plea deal with Garfield County prosecutors.
In Feb 2024, Rifle, Colorado, cops announced Tyler faced 22 charges – including five felonies – after being arrested over a string of alleged thefts.
He faced four felony charges of criminal possession of ID documents with multiple victims.
In October of that year, he pleaded guilty to one count of attempted identity theft after striking a plea deal.
The other charges were dismissed, as reported by the Post Independent.
Tyler was warned he could have faced up to three years in the Department of Corrections had a deal not been secured.
The plea agreement included a two year deferred judgement and he was ordered to complete 80 hours of community service.
He was also warned he could be hit with a felony conviction if he breached the terms of the deal.
