U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert was among a group of mostly Republican officials who were sent suspicious letters laced with an “apparently harmless white powder,” the Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday. More than 100 letters were sent to various public officials across the country, according to the Journal, including Boebert, conservative U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, and Republican state lawmakers in Kansas and Montana. While the Wall Street Journal reported that many of the letters were sent to elected Republicans, Migoya said investigators are still working to determine an exact motive. She declined to comment further when asked to confirm if letters were sent to Boebert or any other Colorado official. According to the Wall Street Journal, the letters were sent in standard white envelopes with fake return addresses.
