Jayson Boebert, the ex-husband of U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert, has been released on bail from the Garfield County jail on suspicion of six charges in connection with two separate incidents involving altercations with family members.
The first of back-to-back incidents happened on Jan. 6 after a loud disturbance in a Silt restaurant with the congresswoman, in which Jayson Boebert claimed his ex-wife punched him in the face, while Boebert maintained she merely “touched” his nose.
In a news release on Wednesday afternoon, the Silt Police said that Jayson Boebert recanted any claims of domestic violence. Silt Police Chief Mike Kite said that Boebert told him that “he wanted this whole thing to go away.”
