Andrew Gillum Locked Up Again, Authorities Say He Tested Positive for Meth

Andrew Gillum‘s back in jail after prosecutors say he missed a drug test … and then tested positive for methamphetamine.

Baldwin County Assistant D.A. John Oxford tells TMZ … Andrew is taking part in random drug testing known as “color code drug testing.” Basically, we’re told Andrew is assigned a color by the court, and he’s supposed to call a hotline every day. If he calls the hotline and his color is read out, he has to report that day for a drug test.

Oxford says Andrew didn’t show up for his drug test on a day his color was called … so he was tested for drugs at his court appearance Thursday … and it came back positive.

As a result, we’re told he was taken back into custody.

We broke the story … Andrew was arrested for drug possession last month when cops say they found him with 3 grams of methamphetamine, 8 pre-rolled marijuana joints, 4 cut straws, 3 pipes, and a bong.

Andrew passed a drug test shortly after his arrest … and there was some indication he might enter a pre-trial drug intervention program. Unclear how this will affect whether he enters that program.

It’s been a steep fall from grace for Andrew … he was the mayor of Tallahassee, Florida from 2014 to 2018 and then ran for governor of Florida in 2018, losing a very tight race to Republican Ron DeSantis.
