Months after his arrest for felony theft charges, Representative Lauren Boebert's 19-year-old son, Tyler Boebert, received a two-year deferred sentence by Judge John Neiley on Thursday after entering a guilty plea.

The GOP Colorado congresswoman's son, who was 18 at the time, was arrested in late February after a "string of vehicle trespass and property thefts in Rifle," according to the Rifle Police Department. Police accuse Tyler and three minor friends of stealing credit cards and other items from parked cars. Boebert was arrested after being seen on camera using the stolen credit cards, police said.

He previously faced 22 charges including four felony counts of "criminal possession ID documents - multiple victims" and one felony count of "conspiracy to commit a felony" as Deputy District Attorney Virginia Sorrell led the prosecution.

On Thursday, after pleading guilty to one count of identity theft with the intent to obtain an item of value, the Colorado judge sentenced Tyler to a two-year deferred sentence and will have to complete 80 hours of community service within the first year and pay court costs...........
