Ree Drummond’s 23-year-old son Jamar Goff was booked into Jefferson County Jail in Birmingham, Alabama on September 15 around 2:30 a.m. local time, according to court documents obtained by TMZ. He faces four charges: unlawful possession of a controlled substance, aggravated assault on a police officer, drug paraphernalia possession, and attempting to elude an officer. His bond is set at $37,000 and he remains in custody.

The arrest report details that an officer responding to a suspicious person call found Goff shirtless and sleeping near a fountain on the University of Alabama at Birmingham campus. He allegedly told the officer he was waiting for someone to sell him“ice,”a street name for methamphetamine. Authorities say he fled once the officer learned of an outstanding warrant, and later allegedly struck an officer with an open-handed palm strike at a local hospital.

The Drummond family has yet to issue a public statement. Ree has been open over the years about Jamar’s foster care background and his place in the family, even sharing birthday posts celebrating his milestones. That openness makes this arrest a particularly heavy moment for fans who’ve followed his story from the beginning. What do you think about how celebrity families should handle legal situations like this? Sound off in the comments.
