An “exclusive” story in the U.K. tabloid Daily Mail is raising intercontinental eyebrows this morning, documenting a shocking case of alleged negligence behind the wheel by now-Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado that left family members injured–and if the story is accurate, Boebert desperate to cover up the incident just a few weeks before her fateful June 2020 primary against Scott Tipton:
GOP Rep Lauren Boebert ‘bailed’ from the driver’s seat of a Jeep ATV leaving her son and dog in the back seat and her former sister-in-law struggling to right the vehicle as it careened down a ravine and smashed into a rock face in Moab, Utah, DailyMail.com can exclusively reveal.
According to a family insider Boebert, 35, was off-roading on Mother’s Day 2020 – just two weeks before she was to win a Republican primary – when she lost control and ‘bailed,’ leaving her family members to their fate…
DailyMail.com has learned that no 911 call was ever placed.
Instead, the source said, the then-congressional hopeful, Boebert, ‘begged’ Hooper not to tell anyone about the accident which could have dominated the headlines leading up to the primary.
According to this report, Boebert along with her son and brother’s then-spouse were off-roading near Moab, Utah when Boebert allegedly panicked and jumped out of the driver’s seat, leaving the passengers of the ATV Boebert was driving to veer out of control and crash into a canyon wall. This was not Boebert’s first motor vehicle accident either, as readers know Boebert was charged with careless driving after rolling her pickup truck into a ditch back in 2016. Boebert reportedly begged her then-sister-in-law to not report the accident, offering to pay for all medical treatment. The American Muckrakers PAC, whose complaint over Boebert’s infamously large “mileage reimbursements” from the 2020 campaign is now the subject of an investigation by the Colorado Attorney General, has the details they’ve compiled on Boebert’s 2020 Moab accident here.
Obviously it’s a terrible story, with details that damage Boebert’s reputation without regard to partisanship. In fact the story is so bad that it would help for local reporters to do their due diligence to confirm it, and we’ll be watching for that.
In the meantime, in addition to not eating Boebert’s pork sliders, we advise against letting her drive you places.

"Then-sister-in-law"? Guess she wanted to cut ties with that family after that.
The Muckrakers refer directly to alcohol use, for whatever reason the Daily Mail didn't include that and that's very interesting.
Yes. Boebert's press sec said "she doesn't drink". HA HA. But the recording says they both were drinking. Check more here: FireBoebert.com/drunklauren

Sure she doesn't. I find it hard to believe someone with her rap sheet and history of fighting the cops wasn't drunk for at least a handful of those incidents.
If it is in the Daily Mail then it must be true.
So that's how this nasty, spiteful, vicious, horrible little shrew and radical right-wing witch ran up all of those 'extra' miles!
Unlike her cult leader, she doesn't throw you under the bus; she just bails and lets the bus you're in crash into a rock wall.
Nasty, nasty little witch.
The headline said "eye-popping" – was that meant to be taken literally?
It does say the poor girl mushed her face into a canyon wall. Close enough.
Hey, guys take easy on her! She methed up thats all.
Were the sister-in-law's medical expenses right around $20,000? Asking to see if there are other strings to the coincidence of numbers.
Oh shit man. Ding ding ding!
Bailing out on one of your own damn children… Jesus.
Bailing out on children once they're born is a GOP specialty.
Worse than shooting your friend in the face IMHO.
This makes perfect sense.
Love her or hate her, we all must admit there is only one Bimbobert.
OTOH, her offspring are fungible. If anything happened to one of her spawn, all she needs to do is spread her legs and let Jayson poke her with his 6-inch "thumb" to produce a replacement.
Of course, protected human life begins at conception and ends at birth.
Not in the Post yet but I assume they’re verifying first.
American Muckrakers are bringing the bacon on low dime…..go AF intel!!!!
