According to a local news report, Woods attempted to rape a Sante Fe woman in her home by using physical force and “grabbing her groin.” The woman called 911 and could be heard screaming as Woods attempted to take the phone away from her. 

Woods said he “did not know what was going on,” but at he police station, it’s noted that Woods took a knife from the woman (who was trying to defend herself) and turned it back on her. When police arrived on the scene, Woods had blood on his shirt and arms, along with a fresh cut on his right index finger. 

After being arrested, Woods claims he was “role-playing” with the woman, fulfilling a “sexual fantasy” of hers. 

Woods is a former MTG writer for ChannelFireball and Daily MTG, and he participated in over 20 MTG Pro Tours. Woods resides in Denver and works as a game designer for Dire Wolf Digital (digital TC game, Eternal), according to the news report.

The 32-year-old is being held at  Santa Fe County jail without a bond at this time.
