Who are Clarice Navarro, Raven Finegan, and Jeffrey Small? Rep. Lauren Boebert accused of having sex with 3 staffers

Rep. Lauren Boebert, a Colorado Congresswoman, is accused of having sexual relations with three of her staffers according to a complaint filed with the House Ethics Committee. The complaint, filed by David Wheeler of American Muckrakers, alleges that Boebert's actions violated House rules from the #MeToo movement, which prohibits members from sleeping with their own staff. The staffers named in the complaint are Clarice Navarro, Raven Finegan, and Jeffrey Small.

Clarice Navarro, a former District Director for Boebert, has denied the allegations stating that they are "entirely false, defamatory, and beyond ridiculous." Navarro, who served as Boebert's District Director from 2021 to 2025 and as a Colorado State Representative for three terms, has been married to Jace Ratzlaff. She has two daughters and has worked as an educator in the Las Animas school district and for the Department of Corrections.

Raven Finegan is currently Boebert's District Chief of Staff. Jeffrey Small served as Boebert's chief of staff from 2021 to 2025. The Colorado Congresswoman has not yet responded to the contents of the complaint. This is not the first time Boebert has faced such accusations, as Wheeler has made similar claims about her in the past.

In 2022, he launched a website alleging that Boebert had previously worked as a paid escort, but the site was riddled with errors and Boebert threatened to sue Wheeler over the claims. However, the two later settled the defamation lawsuit.
