2004 was quite the year for Jayson Boebert, and not in a good way. The consultant was in and out of jail in 2004 for several reasons. In January 2004, Jayson was “arrested after allegedly exposing his penis to two women at a bowling alley,” per the New York Post. He didn’t deny the claims and instead pleaded guilty to lewd exposure and public indecency. The incident resulted in Jayson serving four days in jail and a two-year probation.
Lauren Boebert, who was there when the bowling alley incident occurred, had a different side to the story, per Business Insider. In her book “My American Life,” Lauren blamed the bartender for the incident after she kept hounding Jayson about a secret tattoo he had in the location near his penis. Lauren claims the bartender wouldn’t let it go, and Jayson became frustrated and threw a basket of fries at her when she decided to call the police. Despite the differences in the two stories, this incident wouldn’t be the last time Jayson would run into trouble.
Just a month later, Jayson was arrested on domestic violence charges after an altercation with Lauren, whom he was dating at the time, per the New York Post. The charge led to him spending seven days in jail, but as we all know, this wouldn’t be the last time he would be behind bars. Although it wasn’t until years later, Jayson’s past run-ins with the law foreshadowed his future.
