In a recent incident at a trendy bar in Silt, Colorado, Jayson Boebert, the ex-husband of Colorado congresswoman Lauren Boebert, found himself arrested after an alleged drunken breakdown. The congresswoman was quick to respond, denouncing the incident and stating that she did not engage in any violent behavior.
The events unfolded when Jayson Boebert called 911 from the Miner’s Claim Restaurant, reporting “domestic violence abuse.” However, he abruptly hung up on the dispatcher. Upon calling back, the dispatcher overheard him claiming that the congresswoman had punched him in the face. Police were dispatched to the scene, but upon their arrival, they found no signs of injury or marks on Jayson Boebert’s face. They described his behavior as highly intoxicated and uncooperative. In contrast, Rep. Boebert fully cooperated with the responding officers.
According to authorities, the restaurant staff had requested Jayson Boebert to leave, but he refused. Police also asked him to leave, but he allegedly ignored their requests and had to be physically removed from the premises. Despite the incident, the restaurant did not have any surveillance footage, and no eyewitnesses or individuals with cellphone videos have come forward to corroborate the events.
Upon further investigation, the police determined that the allegations against Rep. Lauren Boebert were unfounded. Silt Police Lt. Matt Gronbeck stated that the investigation into Rep. Boebert is now closed. However, an arrest warrant has been issued for her ex-husband on charges of obstructing a peace officer, trespassing, and disorderly conduct.
In response to the incident, Rep. Lauren Boebert expressed her disappointment, calling the situation sad and escalating. She also mentioned her plans to consult with her lawyer regarding the false claims made against her and evaluate her legal options. It is worth noting that Boebert had filed for divorce last year, citing irreconcilable differences.
The arrest of Jayson Boebert and the subsequent exoneration of Rep. Lauren Boebert shed light on the complexities of personal disputes and the potential for false allegations. As the situation continues to develop, it remains clear that both parties involved are dealing with the aftermath of their divorce and the challenges it brings.
