It's been over two months since Tyler Boebert was arrested on felony theft charges, and he still doesn't have a lawyer.
It's been over two months since Tyler Boebert was arrested on felony theft charges, and he still doesn't have a lawyer.’s eldest son appeared in court today, May 9, to announce whether he’s scrounged up enough cash to hire a lawyer to represent him in his, or if he's decided to get a public defender — neither of which he's figured out yet, to the judge's dismay.
"I wish you had turned in that application a little sooner," Neiley told Tyler."If you’ve done that, you just have to wait for the public defender to make their decision. We can continue it to the June 13 docket." Today, Tyler claimed he had spoken with at least one private attorney about taking on the case, but nothing was set in stone."I’ve gotten a lot closer. I’m working things out with a lawyer to get that figured out," he told Neiley."So it seems like I do have options. But I’m still waiting to get the 100 percent."
While Neiley was disappointed to hear that it took nearly a month to get things filed with the public defender, he didn't reprimand Tyler. The felony charges stem from a series of car thefts that Tyler and some underage friends allegedly committed on February 19 and 20 in Rifle. The group robbed multiple people, including a woman with a brain tumor who said she had just $75"left to her name," according to police.
"It breaks my heart to see my child struggling and in this situation, especially when he has been provided multiple opportunities to get his life on track," Congresswoman Boebert saidafter Tyler's arrest."As an adult and father, Tyler will take responsibility for his actions and should be held accountable for poor decisions just like any other citizen."
