Kym Worthy, Wayne County Prosecutor: Use Your Prosecutorial Discretion to Free Innocent Davontae Sanford

The Issue

There is little in this world more vile than pinning a murder on one of society's most vulnerable citizens. However, pinning four murders on a child who is poor, black, developmentally delayed and blind in one eye is the height of inhumanity. It is especially ruthless when an adult murderer, a well-known professional hitman, has confessed to these murders and is willing to admit formally in court. Davontae has been incarcerated for six years and has had a difficult time adjusting to prison life. It is time for Kym Worthy to do the right thing and free this innocent young man.
