911 call from Boebert’s son may reveal reason for divorce.

Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert’s Son Makes 911 Call Alleging Abuse

A recent report by Insider has revealed that the son of Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado made a 911 call in December 2022, in which he claimed his father was “throwing me around.” The report stated that Jayson Boebert denied any physical altercation with his son.

Divorce Filing and Family Safety

Rep. Boebert filed for divorce last month citing “irreconcilable differences.” In a statement to Insider, she said, “The safety and well-being of my family are the most important things in the world to me. We’ve had some tough times and heartache. I’ve taken action to ensure there are better days ahead for all of us.”

The 911 Call

The Insider reported that on Dec. 11 at 6:46 p.m., a Garfield County dispatcher received a call from a sobbing teenager. The dispatcher asked the teen if his father had made physical contact. “Yes, he was throwing me around,” the boy said, adding, “He called me a psycho, when he’s the …” The dispatcher said an officer would be sent to the home and asked about weapons.

• The teen said, “I mean, there are weapons in the house, yeah, but I don’t think he’d use them on me. He just does this to me so much.”
• “I’m in the driveway, but my mom’s staying down at the farmhouse because there’s problems with them. I’m going down there where he can’t get to me,” he said.

In a second call that came about five minutes later, the teen retracted part of his story. “All I wanted to say is, me and my dad were starting to yell. He didn’t really get physical with me,” the teen said. Lauren Boebert then took over the conversation, according to Insider.

Police Log and Denial of Abuse

According to the report, the officer wrote in the log that the boy said, “He started yelling at his dad first, and his dad wasn’t physical.” The officer added that the teen “said he wasn’t sure why he said that his dad hurt him, but he was upset.” There were no marks on the boy, the log noted. Jayson Boebert told the Insider that “nothing physical” happened that day and that he sent the boy to make the 400-yard walk to the farmhouse to “cool off” after the argument.

“He overreacted. We’re back to being a family,” he said. “Every teenage boy is going to want to test the bull. We’ve gotten over it.”

Other Incidents

The Insider report said that in August, a neighbor accused Jayson Boebert of running over his mailbox and threatening him. According to the New York Post, an affidavit from a process server stated that Jayson Boebert was “extremely angry” when he was served with divorce papers, and sicced dogs on the server. The affidavit stated that Jayson Boebert was cleaning a gun while drinking beer at the time.

I have always spoken highly of my marriage. I believe in marriage. I believe in the power our words hold.

Jayson, a man I spent half of my life with, did not sign up to be in the public limelight, and he certainly did not agree to be falsely accused of things he didn’t do.
