Vice does in-depth dive on suspected Colorado boobytrapper, QAnon follower

In mid-march, news broke that a Colorado couple was suspected of boobytrapping their home in Highlands Ranch after a man heard a loud boom and was hit with a wire while approaching a front door. A later investigation revealed similar booby-trapping devices on the front and back door of the home, resulting in the arrest of a couple and multiple charges.

The couple has since been released on bail and is awaiting a court date. Since then, Vice News did a deep dive into the people involved.

According to Vice News, one of the suspects, Tracy Jo Remington believed the devices were needed “to protect her against enemies of the QAnon movement.”

Remington has a history in belief of conspiracy theories prior to the emergence of the QAnon movement in 2017 and has since been involved in QAnon as a prominent figure.

In 2008, she claimed her then-husband, now ex-husband was involved with creating child pornography, shooting him and subsequently serving 16 months in prison. She later claimed he worked for the Clinton Foundation. Vice News noted that no evidence existed for either claim.

Remington went on to post many videos, which gained her notoriety in the conspiracy world, with an archived Twitter account showing she had nearly 14,000 followers.

The couple is set to appear in court next month.
