A Rapid City, South Dakota man has been sentenced for failure to register as a sex offender, according to a recent conviction.
Gregory Kent Davis, age 62, was sentenced to 17 months in federal prison, followed by five years of supervised release, and a special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund in the amount of $100.
The conviction stems from Davis failing to register as a sex offender as required by state law between June 22, 2021, and July 21, 2021.
Davis left South Dakota on a bus for Pennsylvania without notifying officials in either location. He was apprehended a month later.
This case was investigated by the U.S. Marshals Service. Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeffrey C. Clapper prosecuted the case.
Davis had previously been convicted of a sex offense in state court which requires him to register for 15 years from the time of his release.
Gregory Kent Davis was immediately turned over to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service.
The sentencing occurred on May 16, 2022, by U.S. District Judge Karen E. Schreier. Davis was indicted by a federal grand jury on December 7, 2021, and pled guilty on February 24, 2022.
