Overview
- Prosecutors filed notice on April 7 to subpoena Woods’ medication records from Lewis Pharmacy for Jan. 1 through March 27, and his attorney has now asked the court to block the request and hold a hearing.
- The subpoena seeks fill dates, pill counts, dosages, refill information, and any instructions or warnings, including cautions about driving while taking the drugs.
- Investigators reported no alcohol on a breath test and say Woods refused a urine test after the March 27 rollover crash, so prosecutors view pharmacy records as the closest substitute for chemical evidence.
- Defense lawyer Douglas Duncan argues the records are protected by constitutional privacy rights and asks for a protective order that limits access to prosecutors, law enforcement, state experts, and the defense, with no public release without a judge’s approval.
- Woods has pleaded not guilty, a judge approved his travel for inpatient treatment overseas, and a status hearing is set for May 5 in Martin County court.
