Original: Michigan Supreme Court ruling removes 20,000 names from state's sex offender registry

The Michigan Supreme Court has issued a ruling that removes roughly 20,000 people from the state's sex offender registry. The decision, reported by WXYZ 7 News Detroit, marks one of the largest single reductions of a state registry and is expected to spark debate among victim advocates, law enforcement, and civil liberties groups over public safety and constitutional limits on retroactive registration.
