Case Study / Expungement The record was expunged. Google didn't care.

The court expunged her case years ago. The internet never got the memo. One local news article was still the number one result on her name, and nine broker listings stood between her and a clean search.

How to read this

The article was the headline problem, and it came down in eight days. The broker listings were quieter. There were nine of them, each one rebuilding the picture the court had already erased.

The problem

A court expunged the case years earlier. Even so, the article about the arrest was still the number one result for her name, with nine data broker listings behind it repeating the details one after another.

What we did

We documented the expungement and took it to the publisher under their own correction policy. We didn't wait for that to resolve, though. We worked the broker listings in parallel.

Where it landed

The top result was gone in eight days. After that we checked 281 court-aggregator records and confirmed none of them were hers. Her name searches clean.
