Milton Ray Goss Jr - Repeat Sex Offender assaults disabled girl

NEW PORT RICHEY -- A 57-year-old man will spend the rest of his life in prison after a jury convicted him of capital sexual battery on a disabled girl.

Milton Ray Goss Jr., 6413 Tennessee Ave., was arrested in 2006 after an 11-year-old with Down’s syndrome told her mother that Goss, a family acquaintance, had touched her sexually.

The girl, now 14, testified in the trial last week, using a drawing of a body to identify the places he touched her. Goss also took the witness stand, denying the allegations.

Goss was already a convicted sex offender, having served time in prison after a 1990 charge of lewd and lascivious behavior with a girl.
