I suspect the nurse put on a show for the police, and not one related to his hooking activities. As a nurse, he'd know what OD patients are like coming out of an overdose. The polic mentioned labored breathing etc.

It was a male foot because it was a male taking the pic. But they didn't need to establish evidence that Gillum was with men -- the police report did that.

My guess is the escort and the doctor planned on blackmailing Gillum, who we know was awash in cash even after the election ended. After Gillum passed out in the bathroom, the escort called the doctor and one of them made the video, then they continued to party because hey we got the room why not? Later on, the escort ends up ODing and the doctor decides calling the police but losing the opportunity for blackmail is more desirable than murder, and calls them in.
After the dust settles, the doctor decides to try to claw any cash out of the situation he can and sells the video, or stills from the video, to the daily mail.

None of that makes sense. Gillum could have died, but the doctor and nurse continued to... play doctor and nurse while Gillum was on the bathroom floor? I don't think the nurse even OD'd - that little detail was for the cops. If Gillum OD'd, which isn't out of the question, that would have made him look more like a victim - which the doctor, the nurse, and whoever the fuck else wasn't involved don't want.

r75 If Gillum is just passed out, but still breathing and not foaming at the mouth or anything like that, they could have very easily felt comfortable just leaving him to sleep it off. Drinking and passing out (or even doing drugs and passing out to a large extent) isn't unusual and it's very rare that someone ends up dead the next morning. It was an everyday sight in some colleges in the pre-corona days.
Further, the news says Gillum left for home when the police got there, which is consistent with someone passing out for a few hours and getting up and leaving.

Why spend your traceable money consorting with hookers and discredited doctors (hoping they stay loyal to you and don't rat you out so more $$ there), when you could just drop the info in a few ears and let the rumor mill grind away? This kind of dramatic arch-villain plot strains credulity--I think it's much more likely that the hooker and doctor tried to run an ill-fated and poorly executed blackmail scheme until the hooker ODed and the doctor got spooked he'd be doing 25 to life.

Gillum was leading in every poll before the election for weeks and weeks and was so confident of his victory he left millions of dollars of campaign contributions unspent.
Florida is a purple state with frequently razor sharp margins in statewide elections.

I guess you haven't been following some of the coverage, where the likes of Candace Owens delighted in claiming there was feces and blood on the bedshets. It's even been claimed that the hooker was wearing chaps.... You don't see how this kind of stuff plays into gay stereotypes and helps humiliate Gillum in a particular GAYYYYYYYYYY way.

R104 the FL dem party really fucked up in 2018. There’s no reason Nelson and Gillum should have lost in 2018. Of the “big three” (Beto, Stacey, Andrew) in 2018, Andrew had the easiest path. They allowed rick Scott of all people to hijack the Latino vote.

I doubt the OD was fake since not only the cops showed up, but also paramedics who transported the prostitute to the hospital. You can't fake that unless you immediately leave the hospital without seeing a doctor or nurse.
Notice that Gillum is on his side and has a towel under his head. That is a medical position to make sure he doesn't choke. So I guess the doctor took the picture. Gillum also claimed he was drunk and did not take any drugs. So where are the alcohol bottles? The police stated he was too drunk or drugged to talk to them. I would expect a couple of beer bottle or vodka in the room. If Gillum hired the hooker for a gay drug session, why did the doctor pay for the hotel room and why did he randomly showed up at the hotel room later?

It's far less risky to film someone who's passed out than to film someone who's conscious. If Gillum spotted the doctor, say, recording him, the whole plan could have failed.

The doctor even said that the hooker let him into the hotel room, so it's not like Gillum called him when things went left with the hooker.

He got the nomination because of a push by Bernie Sanders, who also is not popular in Florida. Even the Bernie people are unhappy with Gillum for criticizing Bernie for not being sufficiently anti-Castro last month. This was somebody who was not going anywhere in Florida, was not a rising star in Florida, was never going to hold statewide office in Florida, and is, at best, the ex-mayor of Tallahassee.

I don't know how that worked out for him, as I haven't looked him up recently.

If he wasn't we wouldn't have three threads on this scandal, and you wouldn't be here discussing him.

most likely the escort freaks out over his client overdosing, takes a pic and sends it to his pimp asking what to do. the Dr knows about the Good Samaritan law and knows it keeps anyone out of jail.

[Quote] And escort with a nurse's knowledge sees a client start to overdose. He knows what to do to help him but he's not getting better so he freaks out and calls his pimp. Makes perfect sense to me
And he takes a photo that shows Gillum in the recovery position? What is the doctor supposed to divine from that? And why does the photographed have his foot on Gillum's wrist? If he freaked out, he wouldn't put his foot (not his hand, his foot) on a the wrist of a man he was worried about.

The genitals were blurred out so there could be no revenge porn defence of Gillum - I'm not even talking a court of law here. That picture was taken to put Gillum out there in the court of public opinion. The person who took that photo and whoever distributed it do not want Gillum to be perceived as a victim - a no good (gay) mess but not a victim.

Doubtful. The lack of arrest does not mean that at all. A prostitution case with this set of facts would likely be way too difficult to prove, and hardly worth the effort by the cops or the prosecutors.

What level of delusion do people have to have to think this was a set up.
If it was a set up, then the escort could have easily just placed a hidden camera some where and had all the evidence he needed.
If it was a set up, why would Andrew lie about going to a wedding. Even if we are able to believe that the escorts launched a plan to blackmail him or ruin his career (with republican support), that still requires Andrew to meet with the escort, get naked, have sex, ect. Him being on the DL and cheating on his wife is enough reason for me to be glad his career is over.
We have people like Pete who are out and yet attracted for not being gay enough, all while closeted gay men are celebrated and defended? No!

Finally, at least someone is coming to at least drag Andrew off of the field of battle. This is from "The Advocate"
Far-Right Gay Blogger Peddles Alleged Salacious Photo of Andrew Gillum
The unverified image was released by Jacob Engels, who has connections to the Proud Boys.
BY JACOB OGLES /MARCH 21 2020 12:42 AM EDT
A week after Florida politician Andrew Gillum was found at the site of a potential meth overdose, a website run by a gay right-wing blogger has published an alleged nude photo from the incident.
The image — the veracity of which has not been confirmed by The Advocate — shows a man purported to be Gillum, the 2018 Democratic nominee for Florida governor, lying naked on the floor with his head on a towel covered in vomit.
Blogger Jacob Engels, a gay right-wing activist who runs the website Central Florida Post, said he obtained the photograph with the help of Enrique Tarrio, a congressional candidate in South Florida and a member of the Proud Boys, designated as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
The validity of the photograph has not been confirmed and has been digitally censored. Right-wing celebrity James Woods, known for homophobic and transphobic rhetoric, already shared the image to his 2.2 million followers.
It’s important to note Engels has been affiliated with the conspiracy site InfoWars and, like that site’s founder Alex Jones, has been banned from Twitter for hate speech.
The image was published the same day the Daily Mail published pictures allegedly taken in the same hotel room where Travis Dyson was found in potential cardiac arrest.
Those photos, which also have not been verified, show beer bottles, prescription pill bottles, and bags of what appear to be crystal meth scattered around the room.
The Daily Mail photos were allegedly obtained by police through the Freedom of Information Act, but the images would typically be exempt from public release because they're evidence in a criminal investigation.
In both sets of photos, there are floorboards that appear consistent with those in the Mondrian Hotel, where the incident occurred.
After a police report detailing the potential drug overdose became public, Gillum released a statement denying any drug use and said that he had too much to drink that night.
“I was in Miami last night for a wedding celebration when first responders were called to assist one of my friends,” he said.
“While I had too much to drink, I want to be clear that I have never used methamphetamines. I apologize to the people of Florida for the distraction this has caused our movement. I’m thankful to the incredible Miami Beach EMS team for their efforts. I will spend the next few weeks with my family and appreciate privacy during this time.”
Multiple media sources have since reported Dyson maintained a profile on the website Rent Men and listed himself as a “pornstar performer.”
A few days after the incident, Gillum checked himself into rehab for alcohol abuse. He said then he fell into a depression shortly after losing the governor’s race to Republican Ron DeSantis.
“This has been a wake-up call for me,” Gillum said. “Since my race for governor ended, I fell into a depression that has led to alcohol abuse. I witnessed my father suffer from alcoholism and I know the damaging effects it can have when untreated. I also know that alcoholism is often a symptom of deeper struggles. I am committed to doing the personal work to heal fully and show up in the world as a more complete person.”
Gillum came up short in the election by less than 33,000 votes, about 0.41 percent of the vote. He campaigned regularly with wife R. Jai Gillum.

Enrique Tarrio
Proud Boys Leader Has Raised Basically No Money for Miami Congressional Run
JERRY IANNELLI | FEBRUARY 5, 2020 | 10:00AM
Fundraising for a political campaign is apparently not that easy when you and all of your closest friends have been kicked off a host of websites and credit card platforms for being in a neofascist street gang with close links to white nationalists and people who commit acts of violence and seem to enjoy sharing racial slurs online.
Just ask Proud Boys chairman Enrique Tarrio, the Miami-based head of the pro-Trump, street-fighting Proud Boys, who announced November 1 a run for U.S. Congress. According to documents filed with the federal government last week, Tarrio has raised almost no money in the three months since announcing his candidacy for Florida's 27th congressional district, which is held by Democrat Donna Shalala.
January 30, Tarrio submitted his federal paperwork for the last quarter of 2019 — and reported zero itemized contributions. In a statement to the Federal Elections Commission, Tarrio said his campaign committee has not received more than $5,000 and therefore does not need to report contributions to the government yet.
"This Committee has not yet exceeded the $5,000 reporting threshold that would trigger the Committee's reporting responsibilities under the Act," his campaign wrote.
Reached by phone, Tarrio claimed he hasn't been actively fundraising since he announced his candidacy roughly 90 days ago. That might not be the sharpest of campaign strategies, because his significantly more well-funded Republican opponent, Maria Elvira Salazar, reported raising $365,000 in the fourth quarter of 2019. But even Salazar's total contributions pale in comparison to Shalala's in that timeframe: In the last three months of 2019, Shalala pulled in $600,000. Salazar is sitting with $717,000 in cash, while Shalala has a $1.2 million war chest. Meanwhile, Tarrio has, in political terms, basically no money with six months to go before the August primaries.
Tarrio tells New Times he has simply not made much of a fundraising push yet but has raised "$2,500 to $2,900" so far. (Anyone, however, can freely donate on his website, and it seems like no one has been excited enough to click the "donate $5,600 for the primary and general election" or "$11,200 couple's max donation" buttons.)
"I only held my first fundraising event on the 25th of January," he says. "I hadn't done a lot of Facebook shares or media. I didn't advertise yet or anything. I've basically just had those stories that said I'm running."
Tarrio has also been kicked off nearly every social media platform because he's been spending his free time running a violent street gang. He's banned from Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, though he's flouting his Facebook ban once again by posting under the name "Rigoberto Tarrio." (He will likely be booted again.)
The Proud Boys claim the bans are unfair, but as New Times recounted in 2018, members of the group had been spending loads of time throwing around the N-word, racist memes, Holocaust denial jokes, and even one seemingly pro-Harvey Weinstein meme online before their ban. The group — started by Vice founder Gavin McInnes to "glorify" Western men — also has repeatedly been caught committing violence or endorsing white nationalism. (The group "disavowed" one such member, Jovanni "Jovi Val" Valle, after he endorsed neo-Nazism.) Other members have been sent to prison for beating people in Manhattan and been caught in chat logs plotting violence. In one case, a Proud Boy was accused of using a sword to murder his brother. Tarrio himself attended the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, where a white nationalist killed a leftist protester. Despite those concerns, Donald Trump acolyte Roger Stone admitted in court in 2019 that he hd employed Tarrio and other Florida Proud Boys to help run his social media and PR campaigns.
by Anonymous | reply 249 | March 21, 2020 4:41 PM |
Last year, Chase Bank booted Tarrio from its platform and closed his bank account. Tarrio is also banned from using the credit card payment processor Stripe; he says numerous Republican Party fundraising platforms use the service.
"It's a mix of me starting late and having been de-platformed from the fundraising platforms," he says of his cash-strapped campaign coffers. "I haven't even asked my family for money yet. I mean, family and friends, that's the most important thing for them to support you, right?"
Perhaps he can ask his fellow Proud Boys for a loan.

r191 one thing you need to know is that if the Republicans knew about his down-low tendencies, then the Democrats knew as well. Even Lipstick Alley had a thread about the rumors back in 2018. It was whispered about in Tallahassee, just like (black) SC gays know what time it is for the Senatrice.
Andrew was never in consideration for VP, but they could have made a low-key cabinet position a possibility, maybe. People will play the role of being nice and use him if needed during the campaign, but he was already damaged goods to the Party. He was useful to the Party in FL. Known King Makers like Harry Reid, Obama, the Clintons, Nancy Pelosi, and many others, keep close tabs on the gossip and issues about their Democratic colleagues. Same for Republicans. This how you know that an Obama like candidate is viable for the early support from the power players like the Reid's, Kennedy's, and wealthy donors.
Like I said in the last thread, if he had been elected governor he would have been a disaster because people had serious dirt on him. So he would have likely walked back a lot of his Progressive initiatives to protect his image.

Was Andrew Gillum Set Up? Explicit Hotel Photos Leak As Sunken Conservatives Rejoice
Written By Bruce C.T. Wright/Posted 6 hours ago
Conservatives were rejoicing after explicit photos leaked showing purported images from the hotel room where Andrew Gillum was involved in a suspected drug incident last week. Their reactions (and actions) could lend further credence to the suspicion that Gillum, the former mayor of Tallahassee and candidate in Florida’s 2018 gubernatorial election, may have been the victim of some type of political setup.
While those suspicions have not been confirmed, at least one of the images circulating online was published by someone who the Advocate called a “far-right gay blogger.” That photo showed a Black man who resembled Gillum, a married father of three, lying nude on the floor with his head turned to the side on a towel that looked to have vomit on it.
The salacious tabloid Daily Mail also published several other images purportedly from the same Miami Beach hotel in which Gillum and another man were reportedly found intoxicated and vomiting early on the morning of March 13. Those images showed everything from little baggies contained with white powder, prescription drug containers with white pills spilled and “a small bottle of an injectable medicine containing alprostadil which is typically used to treat erectile dysfunction and should never be mixed with alcohol,” all in a very messy hotel room where a third man was also present.
The other man in the room was later identified as Travis Dyson, a male escort who contradicted Gillum’s public apology for the unfortunate episode. Gillum said he was in Miami “for a wedding celebration when first responders were called to assist one of my friends.” Dyson, who was treated for a drug overdose, was later contacted by a reporter and denied knowing anything about a wedding. Dyson said he and Gillum have “been friends for a while” and that he “personally was not celebrating a wedding.”
Initial reports indicated methamphetamines were involved, prompting Gillum to first deny he’s ever used the drug before he voluntarily entered rehab on Monday for what he described as “alcohol abuse” and “depression” that he said followed his campaign to be governor. The admission was entirely out of character for a rising star within the Democratic Party who presented himself as the consummate family man with a Twitter bio that identifies himself to 633,000 followers as: “Father of three. Husband to R. Jai. Proud Floridian.”
The publication of the explicit photos was met with glee by several prominent Republican activists, including Isaiah Washington, Candace Owens and James Woods, whose once-promising acting career has been replaced by constant pro-GOP social media trolling. Washington, an unabashed supporter of Donald Trump‘s racist presidency who was famously fired over homophobic comments, even went so far as to compare Gillum to “a Slave.”
Owens, a suspected con artist who has openly mocked the “mass hysteria” over the coronavirus and once spoke of Adolf Hitler in sympathetic terms, was among the first to tweet that Dyson was “an openly gay man” after the news of what she called Gillum’s “drug/sex party.” One week later, after the photos were published, she deflected accusations of homophobia in one tweet and politicized Gillum’s incident in another.
That was followed by Woods tweeting the actual photo of the unclothed man said to be Gillum — a photo that also showed the bare foot of an apparent white person who may have snapped the picture, reinforcing suspicions that the photo was taken for political reasons and may have been the result of some type of setup.
“Just remember, this could have been Florida’s governor in the midst of the #WuhanCoronaVirus pandemic,” Woods wrote in his tweet. “Make sure you vote #Republican in November like your life depends on it. Because it does.”

A police report claimed that the Miami Beach Police Department was called to the Mondrian Hotel at 1100 West Avenue just before 1 a.m. March 13 pertaining to a suspected drug overdose. Gillum, Dyson and a third man, Aldo Mejias, were inside of the hotel room when the Miami Beach Fire-Rescue arrived to treat a possible overdose Dyson.
Mejias told officers that he gave Dyson his credit card information on March 12 to book a hotel room for that evening. The men were supposed to reconvene later. Mejias reportedly told officers that when he arrived at the hotel room around 11 p.m., Dyson opened the door, collapsed on the bed and began vomiting. Mejias said he gave Dyson CPR and called the paramedics. He also said that while giving Dyson CPR, Gillum was in the bathroom, vomiting, according to the report.
Officers reportedly attempted to speak with Gillum but were unable to “due to his inebriated state.” Miami Beach Fire-Rescue said it returned to the hotel a second time to do a “welfare check” on Gillum, who authorities said by that time was stable and had normal vitals.
According to the police report, officers found three small baggies of “suspected crystal meth,” which were located on the bed and floor in the hotel room. The suspected drugs were taken as evidence.
However, there were no criminal charges for any of the men involved and officers said that Gillum left the Mondrian Hotel room “without incident” and returned to his home.
Gillum, who was previously reported to be on a shortlist of potential Democratic vice presidential running mates, said he “will be stepping down from all public facing roles for the foreseeable future.” The CNN analyst had at one point even met with former President Barack Obama amid speculation about his own possible 2020 presidential campaign.
Even still, the fortunate truth for Gillum is that he works in a profession where worse deeds — whether alleged or true — have been readily forgiven by voters plenty of times. That fact still leaves open the very good chance of Gillum’s triumphant return to politics.
Perhaps the biggest loss is Gillum having to step away from the good and important work he was doing as the chairman of Forward Florida Action, a political group that describes its objective as “registering and reengaging voters who are often unseen and unheard, electing more leaders that share our values to local office, and making the state legislature more diverse.”

So now people should vote republican because Andrew Gillum was caught in this scandal? That had to come from the mouth of a foolish republican, not a straight forward thinking republican because a real republican knows that one thing has nothing to do with the other. The way our country is being run today, is shameful. People are dying and many more will due to the lies coming from the current administration. Vote to save our country, vote for integrity, vote for a person with empathy because we need it.

I have previously posted that there was no setup, but I'm starting to think there is something very fishy about this whole thing.
The foot in the photo? One of Gillum's playmates was collecting evidence. Something fellow-partakers of drugs/whores don't do.
And the unusually indiscrete prostitute blabbing about a client to the press to both undermine his alibi AND let everyone know it wasn't their first time -- VERY suspicious.

More questions;

the photo with the foot is definitely not normal and not just an example of "friends". Unless Dyson took it and someone hacked his phone, I'd say he or someone else who may have been there before police showed up took it and leaked it
remember some desperate repub activist wouldn't be above paying an escort or pimp to get in tight with a rising star like Gillum and expose him. Obviously there were rumors about his sexuality for a while.
Sure Gillum could have just found the escort on his own or through contacts but nothing would surprise me.
Remember these repubs are the ones who:
A) claimed John Kerry was lying about his military service and this lie helped Bush to get reelected. BTW the inspector general looked into it and later determined Kerry was being honest
B) all the lies about Obama-he's a Muslim, born in Kenya, hates white people etc he was too popular for those to affect his campaigns luckily
C) 25 years of lies about the Clintons including the Clinton Foundation, the bullshit "Clinton Cash" book, pizzagate fake story, exaggeration of emails and Benghazi
D) all their lies about Hunter and Joe Biden
these people would stop at nothing to destroy any Democrat especially one they feel threatened by and especially in a state like Florida where they are trying to hold onto all power. In 2018 Gillum came close to winning that's enough to scare them to take action

I am gay and I am a Democrat.
I believe that Andrew Gillum had NO business running for FL governor since he more than anyone else KNEW HE WAS A DOWN LOW GAY MAN and that would certainly come back to haunt him and the Democratic party.
Look how the conservatives are already making hay of this.
There is real hard truth to the fact that a closet gay man is UNFIT for public life. True, it is nobody's business who he sucks or fucks outside his marriage beside his wife, but when you are a public figure so many people are voting for you to govern and being in the close is a disaster waiting to happen. The Democrats dodged a bullet in a lot of ways. Can you imagine trying to defend Andrew if he were the governor and found with a gay male prostitute who like unprotected sex while on drugs. The Republicans would never end with their outrage, and some of it would be justified.
I hope this fuels Corey Booker to come out of the closet and stop with this engagement nonsense. If he is gay, like many believe, he is open to blackmail and that is unacceptable. If you are gay and want a public life in politics, you must present the real you to the public. Otherwise, do some other type of job.

Add his location (the south) and his race and well you get another closet case. He is still hot as hell and could clean up as an out gay man.
I have to pause due to the unfair situation his wife was likely put into. His actions were reckless and selfish. She might not be aware or in denial about his bisexual tendencies. I'd be furious if this was my father.

Andrew was never in consideration for VP, but they could have made a low-key cabinet position a possibility, maybe. People will play the role of being nice and use him if needed during the campaign, but he was already damaged goods to the Party.
You raise many interesting points, R269. But, my question is still why are the right-wing going in so hard on Andrew? They're squashing him worse than a cockroach!

This was absolutely a set up. Not in the sense that someone tricked him into doing drugs and something more with a male prostitute (although it's possible he was drugged as well) but in the sense that the wrong people knew his proclivities and made sure to get him on camera in a compromising position to destroy his career. Police response was just too bizarre. And there's no other explanation as to how that pic ended up on some wingnut website.
As to why, that's easy: he was a rising Democratic star AND big in voter registration efforts. His "Arrive with 5" campaign in 2018 was huge and a big reason for Dem success in FL that year, especially the voter restoration amendment. Even though Gillum lost, it was a razor thin margin--the closest in 2 decades of GOP dominance--and was a really bad sign for 2020. Since then Gillum's been on a massive voter mobilization drive and if he succeeded, FL would absolutely turn blue. And if his private habits were in fact well known, he was an easy target. The GOP is vile, but more importantly they play the long game. They know the value of cutting small but promising people like Gillum off at the knees. They're plotting to take down Stacey Abrams as well, trust. Hopefully she keeps her shit tight and outsmarts them.

I have nothing to prove it except my gut, and what I have seen personally on the internet, but I think that this is backfiring on the GOP. The Black folks aren't having it. It's not that they're so sympathetic towards Andrew either. Many Blacks (see that Funky Dineva video) were already onto him. But, from what I have read thus far, may Blacks view this as a setup and it angers them. Sure! Andrew was caught dead to rights. He messed up. But, c'mon! Also, there is no love for Candace Owen and the other Black coons. Black folk want Trump and this Administration GONE! They have seen this before and they know what it is and what it is about!

No. My point is frauds like him put lies out there that cause major damage before the truth catches up. They are always plotting and scheming and will keep trying to take down anyone they can on the left. Every once in a while they'll get lucky and people like Gillum will give them ammo, but they will simply make shit up when there isn't any. So we have to be vigilant and condemn these kind of set ups every time they occur.
I agree with the poster upthread that Gillum should pursue a Gawker style lawsuit for the publication of these photos. Unfortunately there's no Peter Thiel on the left to bankroll him.

Veritas. That's Okeefe's operation
His 2018 compensation was $395,940 in salary and benefits, according to Project Veritas’s latest publicly available federal tax filing. Meanwhile, his Mamaroneck, New York-based operation, classified by the IRS as a tax-exempt charity, raised $8,677,317 that year, much of it in anonymous contributions funneled through the right-leaning DonorsTrust fund, and spent $9,696,338—with $735,298 charged to legal fees alone.
O’Keefe claimed Project Veritas boasts more than 10,000 individual donors and more than 50 full-time employees—including Emmy-winning former CBS News producer, and convicted David Letterman blackmailer Joe Halderman (who declined an interview request). O’Keefe’s staffers keep busy recruiting undercover “insiders” in news organizations and government agencies (“people who are willing to put cameras on their bodies and film and lose their jobs,” O’Keefe said) or else running video stings on perceived adversaries.

2) People have a conscience. If you are an "Andrew foe" you may feel that the job was completed and effective. There is no need to go any further.

Andrew Gillum hotel room incident: Miami Beach police reviewing apparent record leak
Jeff Burlew, Tallahassee Democrat Published 2:25 p.m. ET March 22, 2020
The Miami Beach Police Department is conducting an internal review into whether records in the Andrew Gillum hotel room incident were leaked through unofficial channels.
Police reports first surfaced the morning of March 13 not through Miami Beach police but via the Twitter feed of Candace Owens, a conservative commentator and author.
The reports, later obtained by news outlets, detailed a police call to a South Beach hotel where Gillum was found inebriated and in the company of a reputed male escort who had overdosed. Several small baggies of suspected meth were found in
Ernesto Rodriguez, spokesman for the Miami Beach Police Department, said a review is underway into how the incident report got out before its official release to media organizations.
“It’s unknown how the report was shared,” he said in an email, “and yes it is being looked at.”
The review is happening at the same time a British tabloid published photos — none of which have been authenticated by officials — that were purportedly taken in the room. The tabloid said it got the photos “under Freedom of Information law.”
But Rodriguez said Miami Beach PD has provided only one document — the incident report — in response to public records requests.
"I am the sole spokesperson for the MBPD," Rodriguez said in an email. "I can assure you no PRRs have been fulfilled besides the incident report. When they are complete, my intent is to share them with everyone who has requested, at the same time."
Rodriguez also explained why no arrests were made despite the discovery of suspected narcotics in the room.
"We responded to a medical call," he wrote. "The narcotics, although in plain view, were not in physical possession of anyone inside the room. The officers chose to impound the narcotics."
A Gillum spokesman declined to comment on this story.
Gillum, a 40-year-old married father of three, served as Tallahassee city commissioner and mayor before an improbable 2018 bid for Florida governor as the Democratic nominee. He lost to former GOP congressman Ron DeSantis.
After the hotel scandal broke, he apologized, saying he "had too much to drink" that night but never used methamphetamine. Two days later, he announced he would retreat from public life and enter rehab for an alcohol problem he developed after his loss.
“I know the damaging effects it can have when untreated,” Gillum said. “I also know that alcoholism is often a symptom of deeper struggles. I am committed to doing the personal work to heal fully and show up in the world as a more complete person.”

Is Andrew Gillum’s political career over? The Florida Insiders think so.--‘If that doesn’t disqualify you for public office I don’t know what does,’ one Democrat said.
By Steve Contorno Published Earlier today Updated Earlier today A police call earlier this month to a Miami Beach hotel room involving methamphetamine and a passed-out man brought to a crashing halt the once-promising political career of Andrew Gillum, the most recognizable face in the Florida Democratic party.
Can Gillum come back from this episode? It’s unlikely, Florida’s political class said.
The Tampa Bay Times surveyed 160 of Florida Insiders about Gillum’s future and 127 — 80 percent — said they don’t expect Gillum to ever run for office again.
“The Andrew Gillum story is a sad one,” one independent said. “None of us, other than Gillum and the parties involved, know what happened in that hotel room. But it is clear that Gillum is not the person he represented himself to be to the voters.”
The Insiders are former elected leaders, campaign operatives, activists, lobbyists, fundraisers and other experts of all political stripe. The anonymous answers in these non-scientific surveys encourage honest answers from people, many of whom have worked alongside and against Gillum. Across the board — Democrats, Republicans and others — respondents didn’t see Gillum bouncing back from this.
One Democrat called Gillum’s actions “reprehensible and hypocritical, in additional to being politically fatal.” Another Democrat was flummoxed that anyone in the party would defend Gillum.
“If that doesn’t disqualify you for public office I don’t know what does,” that Democrat wrote. “If Gov. Ron DeSantis, (House Speaker) Jose Oliva or insert any Republican’s name did that, there would be an outright cry from the left.”
Police say there were two men also in the room with Gillum, one who called 9-1-1 and another who had collapsed. The latter had a profile on a website for male escorts. Gillum said he was in town for a wedding and had too much to drink.
This wasn’t the first scandal to rock Gillum’s political prospects, several Insiders noted, making him “already unelectable,” one Democrat said. Questions of cronyism followed Gillum’s time as a Tallahassee councilman and mayor, and a FBI investigation into corruption into the capitol city dogged his campaign for governor. Another federal inquiry into Gillum’s political machine popped up last year.
As one Republican put it, “You only get so many chances.”
Gillum narrowly lost to DeSantis in 2018 in an election decided in a hand recount. It was expected Gillum would launch a bid for a rematch in 2022 or challenge U.S. Senator Marco Rubio. Those options are now in doubt.
The former Tallahassee mayor and married father of three said last Sunday he would seek treatment for alcohol addiction and he asked for privacy for him and his family. Gillum, who police said was too intoxicated to speak to first responders, denied ever using methamphetamine.
This has been a wake-up call for me,” Gillum said. “I am committed to doing the personal work to heal fully and show up in the world as a more complete person.”
That announcement came in a carefully crafted statement — sent by a national public relations firm hours after his top advisers and closest allies huddled on a conference call — in which Gillum, a CNN contributor, also said he would step away from “all public facing roles for the foreseeable future.”
Perhaps someday the political world will look back on those words as Gillum’s first steps in laying the groundwork for a return to elected politics. As several Insiders noted, Gillum would be far from the first to attempt a comeback after a fall from grace.
America loves a good redemption story and so when he completes rehab and comes back to public life after a year or two he will be able to run again should he choose to do so,” one independent said.
by Anonymous | reply 429 | March 22, 2020 8:24 PM |
A Democrat said the many Floridians energized and captivated by Gillum since 2018 will forgive him because he “understands what it is to not have basic needs. His passion comes from a deep place, and I believe with the right healing, he will come out stronger than who he was before.”
Some Insiders offered political advice to Gillum, from “go away” to "come clean about what really happened."
"People will forgive almost anything except dishonesty,” a Democrat said. Another said Gillum may not come back as a candidate, “but Andrew Gillum has a future in Florida politics.” Gillum has spent the year and a half since the 2018 election trying to register voters and help Democrats win state House seats.
One Democrat said any discussion of Gillum’s future was “inappropriate" at this time.
“Addiction is a medical issue. Period. Full stop,” he said. “Let’s all use this time to simply to support him and his family, just as if he had a heart attack or cancer. And let the political chips fall where they may.”
Many Insiders echoed those concerns for Gillum and expressed hope he can emerge from this healed.
“You don’t have to agree with Gillum’s ideology or like him or trust him to see that this is a person who needs help," one Republican wrote. "He is too talented politically for anyone to rule out his future in politics, but clearly he has a lot of work to do on himself.”

Gillum did this to himself. It is a horrible situation that he allowed to happen by living a lie and cheating on his wife. Being a faithful husband would not have put him in this place no matter how hard other tried.
I no longer trust him, nor do many many others. I do feel bad for him, but let's be honest, he is a liar about so much here.
He can redeem himself but somewhere out of politics, a game that moves too fast to wait for him to fix his messed up life and come back to where he was. He will be forgotten soon.

My gut reaction is that she didn't know about this. Yep! I think Dineva is right that she probably heard the rumors but chose to look the other way and not believe them.

I doubt she knew about the meth. But there have been numerous posts on LSA claiming that Gillum's sexuality was well know. Apparently, R. Jai pursued him relentlessly. He didn't propose until 5 years into knowing her. It's unclear but at least one of the kids is from IVF. If all the kids are from IVF, they may never even have had sex.

Cops Deny Leaking Andrew Gillum Photos And Review How Candace Owens Got ‘Shared’ Police Report
Written By Bruce C.T. Wright--Posted March 22, 2020
Police in Florida said an investigation has begun over leaked photos and an official report associated with a suspected drug incident in a hotel involving Andrew Gillum were published online. The explicit photos were leaked on social media late Friday night and showed a man who resembles the former Tallahassee mayor in a compromising position purportedly in a swank Miami Beach hotel on March 13. British tabloid the Daily Mail also published photos it said were from inside the hotel room that claimed to show prescription drugs in addition to a powdery white substance that was allegedly crystal meth.
In addition, in the hours after the news first broke on the morning of March 13, Candace Owens — the conservative Black pundit who has openly mocked the “mass hysteria” over the coronavirus and once spoke of Adolf Hitler in sympathetic terms — posted a copy of the police report to her social media accounts.
The Miami Beach Police Department (MBPD) told the Tallahassee Democrat in an article published Sunday afternoon that it was “unknown how the report was shared” and confirmed that how Owens got it was “being looked at.” The department spokesperson also doubted the Daily Mail got the photos it published through a Freedom of information Act request, as it reported.
“I am the sole spokesperson for the MBPD,” Ernesto Rodriguez wrote to the Democrat in an email. “I can assure you no PRRs have been fulfilled besides the incident report,” he added while using the abbreviation law enforcement uses for the terms “Photo Request Response” and/or “Public Records Request.” Rodriguez said he would fulfill those requests by everyone who made them “at the same time” once “they are complete.”
Owens’ involvement along with other aspects of Gillum’s hotel incident sparked suspicions of some type of political setup. While that was not confirmed, Owens’ likely anti-Black Democrat agenda was on display for all to see when she tweeted a photo of Travis Dyson, one of two other men in the hotel from with Gillum. Owens claimed Dyson is “an openly gay man” with whom Gillum was having “a drug/sex party.” That tweet came more than two hours after Owens tweeted a copy of the police report.
It was unclear what kind of penalty, if any, Owens could face for posting a copy of the report that police suggested may have been obtained illicitly.

It was unclear what kind of penalty, if any, Owens could face for posting a copy of the report that police suggested may have been obtained illicitly.
After the news broke, Gillum, a 40-year-old married father of three, released a brief statement apologizing. He said he was in Miami “for a wedding celebration when first responders were called to assist one of my friends.” Dyson, who was treated for a drug overdose, was later contacted by a reporter and denied knowing anything about a wedding. Dyson said he and Gillum have “been friends for a while” and that he “personally was not celebrating a wedding.”
Initial reports indicated methamphetamines were involved, prompting Gillum to first deny he’s ever used the drug before he voluntarily entered rehab on Monday for what he described as “alcohol abuse” and “depression” that he said followed his campaign to be governor. The admission was entirely out of character for a rising star within the Democratic Party who up until the incident had consistently presented himself as the consummate family man.
The police report claimed that the Miami Beach Police Department was called to the Mondrian Hotel at 1100 West Avenue just before 1 a.m. March 13 pertaining to a suspected drug overdose. Gillum, Dyson and a third man, Aldo Mejias, were inside of the hotel room when the Miami Beach Fire-Rescue arrived to treat a possible overdose Dyson.
Mejias told officers that he gave Dyson his credit card information on March 12 to book a hotel room for that evening. The men were supposed to reconvene later. Mejias reportedly told officers that when he arrived at the hotel room around 11 p.m., Dyson opened the door, collapsed on the bed and began vomiting. Mejias said he gave Dyson CPR and called the paramedics. He also said that while giving Dyson CPR, Gillum was in the bathroom, vomiting, according to the report.
Officers reportedly attempted to speak with Gillum but were unable to “due to his inebriated state.” Miami Beach Fire-Rescue said it returned to the hotel a second time to do a “welfare check” on Gillum, who authorities said by that time was stable and had normal vitals.
According to the police report, officers found three small baggies of “suspected crystal meth,” which were located on the bed and floor in the hotel room. The suspected drugs were taken as evidence.
However, there were no criminal charges for any of the men involved and officers said that Gillum left the Mondrian Hotel room “without incident” and returned to his home. Rodriguez, the MBPD spokesperson, told the Democrat no one was arrested because officers “responded to a medical call. The narcotics, although in plain view, were not in physical possession of anyone inside the room. The officers chose to impound the narcotics.”
Gillum, who was previously reported to be on a shortlist of potential Democratic vice presidential running mates, said he “will be stepping down from all public facing roles for the foreseeable future.” The CNN analyst had at one point even met with former President Barack Obama amid speculation about his own possible 2020 presidential campaign.
Prior to the incident in the hotel, Gillum had also been working as the chairman of Forward Florida Action, a political group that describes its objective as “registering and reengaging voters who are often unseen and unheard, electing more leaders that share our values to local office, and making the state legislature more diverse.”

How fucking hard is it to post a simple link to a simple pic that shows up here in Datalounge? Instead you spend hours bitching and whining that you shouldn't HAVE to do that. Instead of jut being a decent person and posting the links you say you already have.

I don't know it's just funny to me that Candace Owens seems to be so invested in publicly humiliating closet-case Gillium given that she gives off such strong captain of the ladies softball team vibes herself. There's no way she's not a lesbian.

Is Andrew Gillum Gay? Alleged Leaked Photos From A Drug-Fueled Miami Party Raise Questions
They feature a man partying with two other men in a Miami Beach hotel room.
Andrew Gillum once served as the mayor of Tallahassee, Florida, and quickly became a political wunderkind. His background was commendable and he garnered a reputation for being devoted to the greater service of the public.
In 2018, Gillum became a national figure when he earned the Democratic nomination for governor of Florida. And though he would ultimately lose to Rick DeSantis — who is the current governor of Florida — his name still rang bells in the political arena nationwide.
But the "leaked" photos from a Miami hotel room that featured a man partying with two other men in a Miami Beach hotel room has people believing that Gillum was involved in a drug-fueled sex party. And while it's confirmed there was indeed "partying" in a Miami Beach hotel room on March 13, 2020, the alleged photos have not been verified as being of the former gubernatorial candidate, but it's prompted a lot of questions on social media — specifically: Is Andrew Gillum gay?
Let's look at what we know about this scandal — and what these allleged photos reveal.

Sign-On Letter In Support of Mayor Andrew Gillum!
This is a sign-on letter in support of Mayor Andrew Gillum and his family in this time of need. None of us are irredeemable. Now, more ever, we must focus on community and uplift each other -- and not because of celebrity or fame.
To be sure, while this letter was penned with Mayor Gillum in mind, it is not lost on us that his treatment is doubly felt by Black men in the margins (e.g. Black gay men, Black trans men, Black men living with HIV, and Black men living with low incomes). It is incumbent upon us to be our Brother's keeper and be the change in which we seek.
While this letter is closed for edits/comments, please feel free to email Michael Seaberry at MichaelJSeaberry@gmail(DOT)com and/or Preston Mitchum at Preston.Mitchum@gmail(DOT)com with any questions. We encourage you to sign this letter by March 25, 2020 but will continue on an ongoing basis. Your email will not be public. Thank you!

An Open Letter to Mayor Andrew Gillum, Black Men, and the Media That Scrutinizes Both:
Mayor Gillum, for the sake of your health -- and the well-being of our community -- we pen this letter from the hearts of Black men who are actively working to dispel the myths of what Black liberation, particularly for men, can be. Each of the undersigned individuals work tirelessly to redesign our surroundings so that Black men can feel wholly welcomed in various spaces, including educational spaces, political arenas, religious and spiritual temples, neighborhoods, and many other spaces occupied by Black men of any background. We do not represent any particular organization or institution. Instead, we represent Black liberation, a freedom seldomly experienced by Black men, and refuse to allow any system to swallow you whole.
Your life is precious. You have shown us the dedication and perseverance it takes to successfully lead a city, while simultaneously vying for higher political offices and taking care of a beautiful family that carries your last name. They carry your legacy and we need you here, whole and healthy, for their sake. You are not and will not be doing this alone. You have a community that supports you, no matter what. Lean on us. Call on us as your backbone and we will do everything within our power to uplift you, move you forward, or just sit and exist in the moment. This won't just rest with you alone.
Fellow Black men, allow this letter to be a reminder that we, too, must be allowed the space to explore, mess up, reevaluate ourselves and become anew. Unfortunately, the world often decides our fate based upon our trials, while white men are regularly afforded myriad opportunities and space to “fail." Failure often backed by a system that protects them and incentivizes this dangerous cycle. We have the power to change that.
The most important part to remember is that we are all on some pathway of exploration, self-exploration, and self-actualization, and we must hold each other with grace and accountability. Accountability, based in love and community, is necessary as a mental health tool, a communal weapon and armor, to remain sane in a world that daily targets us.
We must check on each other. We must support each other. We must love each other. However, in order to do so, we must become comfortable with the uncomfortable. We must share our individual and collective fears and vulnerabilities, so that day-by-day, and truth-by-truth, we might become stronger together. Beyond freeing ourselves, we have the opportunity to demonstrate to the children that come next, the liberatory power of expressing yourself emotionally, wholly, so that they too can grow and lead beside you. The intersectional practices of love, support, and community are always, already consensual; we can only be loved and supported -- communally -- as much as we allow.

The nation is rife with political battles, ongoing military disputes, and the mounting effects of a public health pandemic -- yet here we are. We are here holding you and your family in love and light; because even as the world tumbles, as a mother of freedom once said, “we must love and protect one another.” We are simultaneously willing to support you in whatever journey you determine is best for you. We will also support R. Jai Howard in whatever she determines is best for herself.
While we acknowledge that what is happening to Andrew Gillum in the media is exhausting, it is not unprecedented in how it treats Black men with less popularity and fewer resources. We should not be shocked that you, the media, would fetishize a Black life for clickbait, likes, and shares -- for anything. Black life, in moments of pain and terror, has long been delectable to the American palette. Since the inception of this country, Black men have been devalued, disposed of life and rights, and strictly scrutinized with the highest levels of disdain. This is how the system was designed, but we have long been breakers of chains, lanes and algorithms. We know pain, death and survival and in this moment, we dare to thrive anew. We will endure this alongside our Brother and welcome him to our project of planning and birthing a world where Black life and joy are integral, in all its manifestations.
We understand that the media has a responsibility to share the latest news with the communities that they serve; however, it must not do so in such a salacious way and the terrorizing of Black life must not be the primary entrée. Sharing photos of Mayor Gillum’s naked body, especially in such a vulnerable state, is inexcusable and triggering to a community that has seen our own bodies fetishized and/or slain across the nation, from the lynching tree to Main Street. Quite frankly, we are sick of seeing Black bodies become a call-to-fame and the subject of your headlines. Our bodies belong to us and only we can decide what happens to our bodies. We choose not to display their pain across the nation.
We invite you to share more positive, holistic news stories and outlets as your headlines. We want to see Black men smiling, loving whomever they choose to love, taking care of their family, helping lead the community in change efforts -- anything besides rote pornography of pain and suffering.
This is a charge for you to do something different -- to do something that does not hurt us for once.

What?....
Actor James Woods Twitter Account Suspended Over Nude Andrew Gillum Photo
Actor James Woods shared a reported image of Andrew Gillum from the evening he was found intoxicated in a hotel room with a male escort.
The relationship between James Woods and Twitter has grown contentious. Recently, former Florida gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum was found by police in a hotel room with meth and a gay escort who reportedly overdosed on drugs. Since the news first circulated, Gillum has apologized and entered rehab. However, after photos of the aftermath in the hotel room were leaked, Andrew Gillum and his wife have announced that they're separating.
James Woods, along with the rest of the world, has watched the demise of Gillum unfold in real-time. The acclaimed actor shared the controversial leaked photo from the hotel room scene that is said to be of a nude Gillum passed out on the floor. Authorities came forward to say they weren't aware of how the picture made its way to the public, but by that time, Woods was using it as a way to take a jab at the political figure. Twitter didn't take too kindly to Woods's actions, so they banned him.
“So @RealJamesWoods has been locked out of his account again for sharing ‘intimate media’ of a drunk, naked, puking politician,” Woods's girlfriend tweeted. “His response: ‘Twitter is, of course, protecting Andrew Gillum because no one should ever know how vile these Democrat scum truly are.’ #FreeJamesWoods.” Check out a few tweets below.

Rumor Has It: Andrew Gillum and His Wife Have Separated Following Meth Hotel Incident
March 24, 2020 8:09 PM PST
Former Florida Gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum and his wife, R. Jai Gillum, have reportedly separated after last week’s incident in which he was found in a hotel room with a male escort overdosing on crystal meth and another man.
According to reports, two people on social media claiming to know Andrew’s wife are the source of the separation news.
At the time of the incident, Andrew released a statement saying he was going to rehab for alcohol abuse and planned to spend more time with this family.
“I now need to firmly focus on myself and my family,” Andrew said. “I will be stepping down from all public facing roles for the foreseeable future.”
That statement came before photos of the hotel room where Andrew as found hit the internet — including one of what appears to be Andrew passed out naked on the floor.
Considering what those photos depicted, we wouldn’t be surprised of Andrew’s wife needed some space.

just a reminder since so many forget or never knew it: GILLUM's career was over. He was never getting elected to anything again. He was not the future.
It was revealed that he had $4 million in unspent funds after election day. He believed his own hype and did such a shitty job running his campaign that he had $4 million left over. (It is common to have some extra money since last minute donations can't always be spent--not $4 million). He then decided to create a voter registration initative to keep himself in the spotlight and use the money for good. But Dem fundraisers and party types in Florida were never, ever going to let him run statewide without a fight.

Travis, a/k/a Nurse Methy, had a story up on IG showing him hosting a small party at his apartment complex — but claiming that it was OK because there were fewer than 10 people (even though none of them were doing anything approximating acceptable social distancing). Pretty much expected behavior from an entitled douchebag asshole.
