Michigan Supreme Court ruling strips Nassar and 20,000 others from sex offender registry
The Michigan Supreme Court ruled that the 2011 Sex Offender Registration Act cannot be applied retroactively to crimes committed before July 1, 2011. Consequently, Michigan State Police removed over 20,000 individuals, including disgraced former gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar, from the public registry. While Nassar remains in prison and still legally required to register if released, the decision has sparked outrage among prosecutors and survivor advocates who view the removal as a safety risk.
