EUSTIS, Florida—A Leesburg man lost his swag Monday night when a deputy busted him hard—with ammunition and drugs, including more than two dozen Viagra pills tucked in next to his scrotum.
A Lake County Sheriff’s Office Street Crimes deputy spotted Rodney Lamar “Hollywood Swag” Woods driving a green Ford Mustang with dark tinted windows late Monday night on State Road 19 near Pine Meadows Golf Course Road. The deputy performed a traffic stop for the suspected illegal tint and asked Woods for consent to search the car, which he denied, according to an affidavit.
A K9 deputy arrived, and the dog alerted on the vehicle, and the street crimes deputy began to search the car. He found a small amount of methamphetamine on the floorboard, and a box of 12-gauge shotgun shells inside the trunk. Woods exclaimed, “Those are birdshot!” as the deputy placed them on the hood of his patrol car. A digital scale with drug residue was also found in a backpack.
Woods, a 34-time convicted felon, was taken into custody and searched. “I then located a baggy tucked next to his scrotum with what appeared to be multiple baggies containing different powders, pills and crystal rock substances,” the deputy stated in the affidavit.
The deputy found 27 sildenafil citrate pills, commonly known as Viagra; 21 morphine pills with different strengths, one unknown pill, nearly 10 grams of methamphetamine, one gram of cocaine and a gram of an unknown powder all tucked in next to Woods’ scrotum.
Woods was arrested for possession of ammunition by a convicted felon, possession of a legend drug with intent to sell, possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell, possession methamphetamine with intent to sell, two counts of possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia. The arresting deputy requested Woods be held on no bond due to charges Inside Lake reported on in February.
In that case, Woods is accused of attacking a man with a baseball bat in December and causing multiple broken ribs and broken bones in his right arm, requiring surgery. Woods was picked up on a warrant in February and released on $50,000 bond the same day
Woods has been charged with more than 50 felonies and has been convicted of 34 of them; some are still open cases. He has been convicted of nearly two dozen misdemeanors.
