U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert’s ex-husband arrested on trespassing, obstruction, disorderly conduct charges in Silt incident
Jayson Boebert, U.S. Rep Lauren Boebert’s ex-husband, was arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor assault and criminal mischief days after a public incident at a restaurant in western Colorado, according to court records.
Silt Police Chief Mike Kite on Wednesday confirmed in a phone call that three arresting charges — trespassing, obstruction of a police officer and disorderly conduct — were part of an arrest warrant for Jayson Boebert that Silt police had obtained in connection to the incident at Miner’s Claim restaurant in Silt.
Police were called to the restaurant on Saturday night for an incident involving Lauren and Jayson Boebert, Kite confirmed to The Denver Post over the weekend, but Kite declined at the time to describe the incident or any of the accusations.
Garfield County sheriff’s deputies arrested Jayson Boebert Tuesday, according to online court records.
Additionally, Colorado Bureau of Investigation records show another charge, prohibited aiming of a firearm, involved in Jayson Boebert’s Tuesday arrest.
Kite said the assault, firearm and obstruction charges were from a separate Garfield County sheriff’s warrant, and he declined to elaborate on where that came from.
Garfield County jail records show Jayson Boebert was released from the jail Tuesday. His bail was set at $1,000 for the criminal mischief charge and $1,500 for the assault charge, according to court records.
Jayson Boebert told The Post in a short Sunday phone interview that he called the Silt Police Department on Sunday morning and told police he does not want to press charges.
“I don’t want nothing to happen,” Jayson Boebert said. “Her and I were working through a difficult conversation.”
Jayson Boebert ended the interview without answering more questions about what happened.
A political group that opposes Lauren Boebert accused the congresswoman of punching her ex-husband, but she denied that allegation. Police did not confirm that report.
Boebert campaign manager Drew Sexton declined to comment Wednesday on Jayson Boebert’s arrest.
“This is a sad situation for all that keeps escalating and another reason I’m moving,” Lauren Boebert said earlier, on Sunday, in a statement from her campaign. “I didn’t punch Jayson in the face and no one was arrested.”
Lauren Boebert, a Republican who represents Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District, filed for divorce in April, citing irreconcilable differences. The Boeberts’ divorce was finalized in October, after 18 years of marriage. They have four sons and one grandchild.
Last month, Boebert, who faced a serious repeat challenge from Democrat Adam Frisch in 2022, announced she was switching districts and will run in the 4th Congressional District this year to replace retiring U.S. Rep. Ken Buck.

Community Guidelines
Welcome to Denver Stiffs! We’re glad you’re here.
Denver Stiffs is a community where sports fans from all backgrounds gather to share their passion. We strive to create a fun and welcoming place for everyone to come fan with us. These guidelines help ensure that happens. Here’s the short version:
- Be respectful in your interactions with contributors and fellow fans.
- Don’t be a jerk, and don’t call other people jerks.
- We’ll remove anything we see that jeopardizes our communities.
- We ask that you do your best to keep the conversation to sports and primarily our favorite NBA team. Why? Because there are plenty of other sites where you can air your opinions about everything from politics to soup recipes.
- You can help with that. If you see something that doesn’t align with our guidelines, let us know. Flag any comments or usernames that violate our guidelines so our community managers can review them.
These rules extend to our communities everywhere: in our comments, on social media, and in real life.
We do not allow any of the following:
- Personal attacks: This includes name-calling, insults, threats, hurtful comments about someone’s appearance, voice, or style, and all other forms of attacks. We want our communities to be welcoming and fun. Personal attacks are the opposite of that.
- Attacks on staffers: It’s fine to critique a post, disagree with a take, or point out errors. We draw the line, however, at personal attacks (see above) about writers, editors, moderators, etc.
- Discriminatory or derogatory language: This includes racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or other forms of discrimination.
- Harassment: This includes, but is not limited to, intimidation; stalking; unwanted photography; inappropriate physical contact; use of sexual or discriminatory imagery, comments, or jokes; and unwelcome sexual attention.
- Wishing harm on athletes: Don’t root for an injury, don’t root for harm to befall a coach or athlete. You can want someone to get fired or released, but please do not hope for bodily harm.
- Misinformation and disinformation: Sharing demonstrably false information about news or world events, beyond the scope of reasonable sports opinion or analysis, can be harmful to our communities. These comments will be removed and may result in a suspension or a ban.
- Illegal activity: Don’t promote, encourage, or make light of any kind of illegal activity, including DUIs, domestic violence, or sexual assault.
- NSFW images and comments: Keep it PG-13, or you will be removed. This includes language and images that are sexual, violent, or generally offensive in nature.
- Excessive profanity: Fans get worked up on game days, and we’re fans, too. We understand that. As a general rule, keep profanity to a minimum. Some communities prohibit profanity, so be sure to review guidelines for the individual communities you participate in.
- Multiple accounts and throwaway emails: These are a signal that you’re not interested in being a productive member of our communities, and we do not allow it.
- Trolling: We know it when we see it, and we’ll remove it. Don’t go to a rival team’s community for the sole purpose of riling up their fans, either. Moreover, you should never publish any private or personally identifiable information. Doxxing is strictly prohibited.
- The “first post” rule: If you break any of these guidelines with your very first post or interaction, it signals to our community managers you’re just here to be disruptive. Violators may be banned, blocked, or removed.
- Spam: We have a zero-tolerance policy on spam, which includes sharing links to illegal game streams or downloads. Spam will be deleted and spammers may be banned, blocked, or removed.
- Political commentary: Denver Stiffs is a site dedicated to the Denver Nuggets, not politics. There are many sites available on the internet to discuss politics, Denver Stiffs is not one of them. Please refrain from any political commentary while using our site.
Anyone who doesn’t follow these rules when engaging in our communities will at best be removed from the conversation, and at worst will end up banned from that community. These decisions will be made at the discretion of our community managers and other Mile High Sports personnel. Community managers and moderators have final say on interpretation of violating our community guidelines, and on all decisions resulting in a warning, suspension, and/or ban.
If you see any of these things happening in our communities, please flag it and it will be reviewed. You can also reach out via our contact page.

Louisiana child rape suspect arrested in Denver
DENVER (KKTV) – A man out of Louisiana suspected of child rape is now in custody in Colorado.
The U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force said they arrested 43-year-old James Connolly Tuesday morning in Denver.
The U.S. Marshals Service said Connolly was wanted by West Baton Rouge Parish deputies for first-degree rape of a child under 13 years old.
According to the U.S. Marshals, a full-scale investigation into the allegation was launched, and probable cause was found to file charges.
After an arrest warrant was issued on August 12, they said Connolly was likely aware of the warrant and had fled the state.
On Monday, officials reportedly received information that he could be in Denver. The next day, the U.S. Marshals Service said the Colorado Violent Offender Task Force found Connolly working maintenance for a company near I-270 and York Street in Denver under the name “Alli” with a changed physical appearance.
Officials said Connolly was then positively identified and taken into custody.
“The success of this arrest represents a culmination of extensive cooperative investigative efforts between the U.S. Marshals in Baton Rouge, U.S. Marshals Colorado Violent Offender Task Force – Denver, West Baton Rouge Sheriff’s Office, Livingston Parish Sheriff’s Office, Colorado Bureau of Investigation, Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, Englewood Police Department, and Colorado Department of Corrections,” the U.S. Marshals Service said in a release.
He’s currently in the Adams County Jail pending extradition back to Louisiana.
