Darryl Woods & Prosecutor Kym Worthy on Forgiveness, Second Chances, and The Meaning of Justice

In this episode of DRIVE, Jim shares the story of Darryl Woods, who spent 29 years in prison for a drug transaction that resulted in a death, before becoming a Detroit minister, activist, and public official, and the unlikely friendship he formed with Wayne County prosecutor Kym Worthy, who originally opposed his release. Darryl explains how faith and the teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. shaped his commitment to forgiveness, rejecting bitterness, and serving others. Kym discusses accountability, her creation of a conviction integrity unit, and diversion efforts that have kept over 25,000 people—mainly juveniles—out of the system. They reflect on faith, service, and Darryl’s joyful reunion with his family after release. 00:00 Forgiveness Over Hate 01:44 First Call With Kym Worthy 05:10 Defining Forgiveness 08:35 Kym On Justice And Mercy 12:11 Joy Of Coming Home 15:55 Giving Back Together 17:43 Meeting Grandson 18:54 Joy In Prevention 23:28 Stories of Faith and Church 26:35 Serving Others With Dignity 31:41 Advice For Leaders At Ford DRIVE with Jim Farley is produced by Jesse Baker and Eric Nuzum of Magnificent Noise.
