Gregory Winston Durant - Repeat Sex Offender - Sexual Battery


Osceola County Sheriff's detectives arrested Gregory Winston Durant, 44, and charged him with sexual battery on a child, ages 12 to16, and two counts of lewd and lascivious conduct.

The investigation began when deputies took a report from the 12 year old victim's mother. The victim told detectives a family member, identified as Durant, made her try on underclothing while in front of him. She also told detectives Durant attempted to inappropriately touch her on several occasions.

Durant is a registered sex offender who served time in state prison for a 2001 lewd and lascivious child under 12 conviction. He was booked into the Osceola County Jail with no bond.
