Larry Nassar has been removed from Michigan’s sex offender registry, becoming one of more than 20,000 individuals delisted after a recent court ruling. The decision alters the state’s public registry, erasing Nassar’s name alongside thousands of others. The change was reported by Washington Post and USA Today, confirming the updated status of the former USA Gymnastics physician. The delisting sparked strong reactions.

Survivors described the move as an “institutional betrayal,” according to WILX’s coverage of their comments. Meanwhile, a prosecutor publicly criticized the ruling, arguing it undermines accountability, as detailed by MLive.com. Both outlets highlighted the emotional and legal tensions surrounding the removal of high‑profile offenders from the public list. As the revised registry now excludes Nassar, the state’s list reflects the removal of over 20,000 names.

WXYZ 7 News Detroit noted the scale of the change, while Washington Post reiterated that Nassar is among the many whose records were cleared. The updated registry stands in effect, marking the latest implementation of the court’s directive.
