Tyler Boebert has finally found a lawyer he can afford — or someone's footing the bill.
The appearance of counsel gave 9th Judicial District Judge John F. Neiley the ability to move the case forward, such as Tyler's arraignment, but the judge chose to issue yet another continuance — the third consecutive one for Boebert's eldest child — so his attorney, William Trent Palmer, can"get up to speed" on everything.
Palmer, a Carbondale-based private defense lawyer who specializes in commercial and civil litigation, was in the news last year for representing a felony home invasion defendant from Silt. The suspect chose to randomly drop Palmer to defend himself. "I always think it's a good idea to maybe do both, because if you qualify, you have options," Neiley said."We can set this off for a little bit of time for you to make that decision."
Neiley continued the case and set Tyler's appearance-of-counsel date for May 9. When that rolled around, Tyler showed up to court and told Neiley he still didn't have an attorney to represent him. Even worse, he filed his public defender paperwork just a few days earlier, making it practically impossible for him to have heard back in time.
Tyler is facing numerous charges for his alleged crime spree, including felony counts for identity theft that carry a possible sentence of two to six years in prison and misdemeanor charges for criminal trespass, which carry a possible sentence of up to 364 days behind bars and fines up to $1,000.Tyler and his friends allegedly robbed multiple people, including a woman with a brain tumor who said she had just $75"left to her name," according to police.
It's been quite an eventful week for the Boeberts, with Tyler's dad, Jayson, also having a court appearance on Wednesday, June 12, for the six misdemeanors he racked up in Garfield County earlier this year for two different incidents involving Tyler and Lauren., managed to walk out of court with just one charge actually sticking — reckless endangerment — which came with a sentence of six months of unsupervised probation and a $40 fine, plus court costs, as part of a plea deal.
