Andrew Gillum found in Miami Beach hotel room with suspected drugs, police report says [Apologizes]

Andrew Gillum, who in 2018 came within 34,000 votes of becoming Florida’s governor, was discovered by police at a South Beach hotel early Friday morning in a room with bags of possible methamphetamine and in the company of a man who appeared to have overdosed on drugs, according to a Miami Beach police report.

Police say they were called to the Mondrian South Beach early Friday morning and found paramedics treating Travis Dyson, a 30-year-old Miami man, for an apparent heart attack. They say two other men were in the room: Aldo Mejias and Gillum.

Police say Gillum, who was not arrested, was too intoxicated to answer questions. An offense incident report says that officers found three clear plastic baggies of suspected crystal meth on the bed and floor.

Gillum, a former Tallahassee mayor, issued a statement Friday afternoon in which he denied using drugs.

“I was in Miami last night for a wedding celebration when first responders were called to assist one of my friends. While I had too much to drink, I want to be clear that I have never used methamphetamines,” he said. “I apologize to the people of Florida for the distraction this has caused our movement.”

Somehow it is Trump’s fault.

"That is not me."

"I did not live up to my own standards."

"As soon as I found out what I did, I assigned members of my staff to investigate me and discover the real facts. Until that investigation is complete, I will be having no further comment on this matter."

Any of the rest of us would have been arrested anyway.

Miami Beach PD has body cams. Could be some humorous public records requests being filed by FL GOP right about now.

That's the thing about these frickin democrats. They think they can just 'apologize' and everything will be okay.

But if a Republican screws up, 'An apology is not enough!' 'He/She MUST RESIGN!'

F*cktards like that are why I'm registered Unaffiliated these days.
