Rep. Boebert downplayed the charge, saying it was the result of “a miscommunication on monitoring my young grandson that recently led to him getting out of our house.”
I’m not OP, but I’m guessing that they’re referring to the news story more than the law enforcement. I don’t think that this is newsworthy. Criminal charges happen all the time, but this one is only getting attention because his mommy is in Congress; I have no reason to believe that she’s involved in this crime in any way. I also didn’t give a shit about Hunter Biden’s drug addictions or gun crime or whatever else was going on with him. It would be newsworthy if these people weren’t charged because that would indicate that there are no consequences for family of politicians.
You know what? You’re right. But it shouldn’t be. I’m wrong to assume that things are as they should be and that politicians’ families are not dodging consequences.

I think the child of a politician actually being charged with a crime is newsworthy.

This ^ is what I meant.
