Ree Drummond’s Foster Son Jamar Goff Arrested on Drug, Assault Charges in Alabama

He remains in custody on a $37,000 bond after court records say officers found him sleeping on campus and later accused him of striking a police officer.

  • On September 15, Jamar Goff, foster son of Food Network star Ree Drummond, was booked into Jefferson County Jail in Alabama on drug and assault charges.
  • Ree Drummond and her husband, Ladd Drummond, became foster parents to Goff in 2018 when he was a teenager, welcoming him as an inextricable part of their family.
  • Officers reportedly found Goff sleeping at the University of Alabama at Birmingham, where he allegedly claimed to be waiting to purchase "ice," a slang term for methamphetamine.
  • After allegedly attempting to elude police, Goff reportedly used "an open-handed palm strike" on an officer at a local hospital and remains in custody on a $37,000 bond.
  • Court documents detail four charges against Goff, while his legal counsel status remains unclear and representatives for Ree have not provided comment on the situation.
