Lawn care worker arrested for failing to register as sex offender

COWETA, Okla. — The Wagoner County Sheriff’s Office is focusing on busting sex offenders who fail to register.

Wagoner County deputies say they recently discovered that Raymond Bryant was registering at his parent’s home near Coweta, but had not lived there in years.

Investigators learned that Bryant has was self-employed doing lawn care jobs.

When Bryant arrived, he was taken into custody for his outstanding warrant without incident.

They set up a meeting last Wednesday to discuss a job at a convenience store in Coweta.

Bryant was transported to the Wagoner County Detention Center and was booked in on a 10,000 bond.

Sheriff Chris Elliott said, “We will continue to aggressively pursue any offender that does not register as a sex offender when they are required to do so.”
