Months after his arrest for felony theft charges, Representative Lauren Boebert's 19-year-old son, Tyler Boebert, received a two-year deferred sentence by Judge John Neiley on Thursday after entering a guilty plea.

The GOP Colorado congresswoman's son, who was 18 at the time, was arrested in late February after a "string of vehicle trespass and property thefts in Rifle," according to the Rifle Police Department. Police accuse Tyler and three minor friends of stealing credit cards and other items from parked cars. Boebert was arrested after being seen on camera using the stolen credit cards, police said.

He previously faced 22 charges including four felony counts of "criminal possession ID documents - multiple victims" and one felony count of "conspiracy to commit a felony" as Deputy District Attorney Virginia Sorrell led the prosecution.

On Thursday, after pleading guilty to one count of identity theft with the intent to obtain an item of value, the Colorado judge sentenced Tyler to a two-year deferred sentence and will have to complete 80 hours of community service within the first year and pay court costs...........

The article says the trial was delayed because he did not a lawyer but all of a sudden he has a private lawyer.

1. It's a slap on the wrist

if he wasn’t a congresswoman’s son and or a person of color he’d be sent to jail for many years.

That said I don’t think we’ll hear the end of his wrongdoings and one day that’ll catch up to him.

[sdfernando]

29. I think he has a buddy in Alaska....

whats his name?....Tramp????

[ShazzieB]

46. Track?

[Jack Valentino]

38. Upon first read, it doesn't appear that they actually charged him with

everything he was caught doing, either....

Stealing credit cards, isn't that a felony ??

[SheltieLover]

39. Barely a slap on wrist

[Lonestarblue]

51. Great example of separate justice system for people in prominent positions.

Now that he’s gotten away with committing multiple crimes, he’ll be back in court again. I sort of feel sorry for him because it’s obvious that he has terrible parents.

[GreenWave]

2. But Biden's son OTOH...

[bucolic_frolic]

3. He got a light sentence because of his mom,

he'd be a target in prison because of his mom. In my view, this is the right outcome for him. Hope this whole clan fixes itself.

[Think. Again.]

11. You do realize that pretty much everyone who goes to prison is "targetted" for something, right?

[PatrickforB]

20. Indeed. Very nice thoughts. I would like to take this moment, though, to say

that if anyone reading this lives in CO or just doesn't think Boebert has what it takes to even be in the US House of Representatives, please go on Act Blue and donate to her opponent, Trish Calavese. I just sent Trish a donation.

But again, let us hope the Boebert clan wakes up and sees the error of their ways. Especially Tyler.

[Blues Heron]

24. so we should have a two tiered system based on who the parents are?

alrighty then

[underpants]

4. Jesus Christ. He has to put in 10 days of work?

She must be good.

[AZ8theist]

31. Maybe she took the judge to see a play......

[Joinfortmill]

5. That's it? WTHH?

[ret5hd]

6. looks like a kid that was born with a...

suspended license and gaps in his resume.

..........If the 19-year-old completes his deferred sentence without another run-in with police in the coming year, his felony conviction will be removed from his record.

Tyler Boebert was initially charged with 19 crimes – four felonies and 15 misdemeanors.

[multigraincracker]

19. Odds are he won't make it a year. n/t

[Tarzanrock]

9. Barely 19 years of age ...

... a high school dropout who is not married and is the father of an illegitimate child with no known job and now has a criminal record of 22 criminal charges including Felony charges. Now, he has 2 years of probation. Good thing that he has a Mother as role model -- a woman who masterbates guys not his Father in public theaters. Where is his Daddy?

[vapor2]

21. White trash

[AZ8theist]

32. Without comment......

[Hope22]

10. I expect bigger and better...

…crime from him in the future. Pretty sure he won’t disappoint.

[AZ8theist]

37. His gene pool is really shallow so you are likely correct.....

[oasis]

53. Did Boebart family pose w/firearms for x-mas

cards a few years back?

[Skittles]

55. we have more to fear from HIM than we do from immigrants

[live love laugh]

12. "three minor friends" ... I thought you were not a minor at 18.

[tanyev]

13. Did the judge restrict his access to guns?

[BlueKota]

30. The woman most likely to raise four felons!

[Paladin]

14. Trash family. (nt)

[mwb970]

15. Brings back memories of Sarah Palin.

Lots of trashy families on the far right, it would seem.

[not fooled]

42. That's why they're so popular with maggots

Kindred spirits.

[MLF1981]

16. Probably not going to be a popular opinion, but...

Let me preface this by saying that I don't like his troglodyte mother at all, but at age 19 a lot of people do really stupid shit. I did when I was that age, literally. Back then, there was no deferred adjudication, and the poor decisions that I made and the justly deserved consequences have followed me for my entire life.

A nineteen year old person doesn't have the maturity to weigh the consequences of their actions, because they usually think they know everything, and on top of that, think that they'll live forever. We know now that the frontal lobe doesn't fully develop until around age 25. This has an impact on decision-making, impulse control, and long-term planning abilities. I hope this kid learns a sorely needed lesson from this experience, and gets his head on straight, and figures out that committing crimes isn't a very good idea.

[kacekwl]

36. Nonsense.

10 year olds know right from wrong and your excuse may work for them but certainly not a 19 year old. Obviously a lack of parenting and poor examples from adults in his life led to many if not all of his troubles.

[MLF1981]

40. I'm sure that you are proud of every decision you made at 19...

Aren't you?

[happy feet]

49. I am

[kacekwl]

52. Pretty much.

I wish I was better at saving money then but otherwise yes. Working a full-time job had my own apartment. Sure I made mistakes but none that landed me in jail. Thanks for asking.

[stopdiggin]

44. the evidence for delayed frontal lobe development

is fairly well established. You might want to argue this particular incident on social or environmental grounds. (mostly because it suits our peeve against Boebert) But the science on mental development is quite sound, and please don't try to brush off or diminish what it actual has to say. Kids - even good kids - do stupid things. "What were you thinking!" things. To our eternal consternation - but never the less ... And the reason (among others) is they do NOT have a fully functioning framework/understanding of morals, ethics, consequences ... A ten year old pocketing a bauble from Grandma's bedroom - is not the same thing as a 30 year old doing the same thing. Please speak with someone that actually has some training and experience with mental development on such subjects as risk behavior and impulse control - before trotting out the hoary "ten yr olds know right from wrong" boilerplate. It just doesn't serve either the discussion - or the topic overall well.

[EarnestPutz]

48. I agree, and would go on to say that his sentence is probably in line....

.....with hundreds of other 19 year Olds that have been through that court system.

[onandup]

17. He'll be back in court soon enough

nm

[Deuxcents]

22. Yep..my first thought

[twodogsbarking]

18. Will she ever go away? Just hoping.

[pstokely]

23. is he part of the bro vote?

25. Two tiered Justice System, anyone? This just makes me so angry!! n/t

[True Dough]

26. Meanwhile,

Lauren Boebert can barely complete a coherent sentence.

[AZ8theist]

33. See my post #32

[True Dough]

35. Spot on!

[Ilsa]

27. I think a lot of young people get these kinds of sentences.

My niece was convicted for felony theft and got time served, plus 50 hours CS, but a lengthy parole, which she ended up violating.

[4lbs]

28. Two-year DEFERRED sentence?

Umm... great. A white person sentenced by a white judge.


If the guy was black, this wouldn't even have been in court. The cops would have shot his ass dead instead of merely arrested him.

Black man using stolen credit card? Gotta kill him. Kill him now. Kill him dead!

[Ziggysmom]

34. As much as I think BoBo is a vile and ignorant wench, I feel sorry for her kids. They were doomed since

before they were even born. Look at mom and dad, then think about what they can possibly teach a child?

[Old Crank]

41. Justice for well connected

White criminals.

43. The film 'Idiocracy' has many messages.

An important one is in the final scene.

One commentator on the film wrote:

"I like how the ending shows the same problem from the beginning, with Frito's very dumb kids outnumbering Joe's smart kids 10 to 1."

[stopdiggin]

45. So - - we were all fully expecting that this was going to result in a prison sentence?

Pardon - but this seems fairly run of the mill to me.
I'll stand back now, while all the experts enumerate the ways in which I'm dead wrong ...

[C0RI0LANUS]

47. Black youth 9x more likely to be incarcerated than white youth in Colorado

In the US, "black youth remain vastly more likely to be incarcerated than their white peers. Black youth are almost five times as likely as their white peers to be held in juvenile facilities."

In Colorado: 457 black youths incarcerated compared to 49 white youths; Ratio = 9.3

50. I hope the young man gets his life back together because he is looking @ prison for his next crime,

some kind of drug and or alcohol problems which he probably has now, not helping his son,
traffic accidents and or violations, a record that will haunt him, and an early death. The military
used to straighten out people like him but without a high school diploma that option is gone.

I think both his mom and dad have records too.

[maxsolomon]

54. Jailing first-time non-violent offenders is expensive.

That's probably why it's a deferred sentence.
