Watch: Lauren Boebert loses it on debate moderator as he grills her on Beetlejuice lies
A Colorado anchorman had Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) back on her heels during a debate among candidates seeking the House seat representing the state's 4th district by pressing her on her lies about her Beetlejuice groping theater scandal.
The contentious back and forth between Channel 9's Kyle Clark and the controversial GOP lawmaker ended with him ignoring her personal attacks on him as he moved on to other candidates who stood by and watched the squabble.
Boebert attempted to dismiss the scandal that made her a national joke saying she had made mistakes and apologized for her conduct, but Clark persisted and asked her if she had apologized to the service workers she harassed and abused as she was escorted from the Denver theater where she was filmed giving them the finger.

"Did you apologize for lying to voters about what you did that night and the disrespect you showed to service workers," he asked. "What specifically were you apologizing for?"
A stuttering Boebert replied, "I don't believe there was disrespect. Things were absolutely taken out of context."
"There's a video of your interactions with service workers," Clark reminded her .
"Well, it has been reported that I flipped someone off and I did not," Boebert shot back. "I think it has been very mischaracterized. I'm apologizing for you, Kyle Clark, for getting video and releasing that and people seeing it in a very private moment."
She then went on the attack, stating, "But you just recently had an interview with City Cast Denver about how disgusting it is to record someone without their knowledge!"
As Boebert continued to rage at him he turned to the other candidates and proposed talking about earmarks as he ignored her tirade.
