According to the Garfield County Sheriff’s Office, Tyler Boebert was arrested following an investigation involving the sheriff’s office and local prosecutors.
If this happened in the beginning of 2024, and Tyler was born March 21, 2005, he would have been 18¾. In the best case scenario he just had a girlfriend who wasn’t 18 yet and they made consensual videos.
He was 18 at the time and 11 months older than the victim, according to the arrest affidavit. The girl turned 18 three weeks after the illicit video was shot on Feb. 1, 2024, authorities said.
Honestly the only action in this that I find a problem, is that someone put the video on Instagram. If an 18 and a 17 year old want to film themselves having sex for their own use, then that might not be a good idea because of the danger of leaks, or later retaliatory action from one party against the other, but making or possessing it also shouldn’t be a criminal offence.
From a societal perspective nothing good comes of making massive swaths of teens into criminals for consensual victimless crimes.

Looks like that’s exactly what it was:
