Tyler Boebert, Son of Rep. Lauren Boebert, Arrested on Child Sexual Exploitation Charges

Prosecutors say the case began after a social‑media tip and court records tie the charges to a 2024 explicit video that may involve other minors.

Overview

  • Tyler Boebert was arrested by Garfield County deputies and booked on Sunday before posting a $10,000 bond and being released the same day.
  • Court records charge him with three counts of sexual exploitation of a child and two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and his next appearance is set for Aug. 19.
  • An arrest affidavit links the allegations to a sexually explicit video recorded in early 2024 when Boebert was 18 and a participant was 17, and the minor’s mother alerted authorities after the video surfaced on Instagram.
  • The arrest followed a sheriff’s investigation and a felony review by the 9th Judicial District Attorney’s Office, and court documents indicate other people, including juveniles, may face related charges.
  • Tyler’s new charges come on top of earlier 2024 theft-related pleas and recent child‑abuse citations, and Rep. Lauren Boebert issued a brief statement saying she loves her son and is taking the allegations seriously while the case proceeds.
