Osceola County, FL – A 26-year-old Poinciana High School teacher and girls’ basketball coach was arrested Thursday after having an inappropriate relationship with a 17-year-old student, the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office said.
Deputies began an investigation after the girl reported to school administrators that Wayne McKenzie Ricks was making her feel uncomfortable, Osceola County Maj. Jacob Ruiz said.
Ricks bought gifts for the student, including sneakers, a cellphone and a necklace, Ruiz said.
Detectives said Ricks kissed the victim once and sent her a nude photograph of his genitals through Snapchat. The allegations were confirmed by a recorded phone call, deputies said.
“We would like to thank the deputies, detectives and school officials that acted quickly in this case to ensure that our students are not exposed to any individuals who are willing to harm our children,” Ruiz said.
Faculty and staff members voted Ricks teacher of the year in November. He has since resigned from his position.
Ricks was booked into the Osceola County Jail on charges of battery and transmission of material harmful to minors.
Anyone with information about this case or a similar case is asked to call the Sheriff’s Office at 407-348-2222.

So how did he get her phone number and Snapchat? STALKING AND GROOMING.
This is why so many WOMEN are single. They can’t find a real man interested in dating women. These guys want young girls they can control and mold.
HE bought her a phone, necklace, and tennis shoes. To a teenage girl, THAT’S SOME REAL SHIT. To a grown ass woman, you haven’t done a thing. We already have that shit and wouldn’t find it impressive at all. What a dog this guy is.
Now he’s all upset because his dumb ass got caught. I’m not certain if the girl accepted the gifts initially and was just overwhelmed by the attention, or if she immediately was uncomfortable. There must have been something that encouraged him to move forward with the gifts. Maybe a smile or maybe she flirted back. But just typical of a pervert, they don’t waste any time. He gave her gifts then sent dick pictures. What are the gifts for? She’s a whore? Did he think she was for sale? So that’s his mack game? No wonder they pursue kids.
And he was teacher of the Year? Really? Why is it worth that to these guys? Why do they risk it all? I think it’s all nasty, but he couldn’t wait for her to turn 18 at least?
Was she interested in him at one point? She HAD to be. He kissed her and got away with it. And that couldn’t have been overlooked by her. You don’t accidentally kiss someone. What changed between them?
I know THAT’S not the same guy is it? Looks like it to me. Is he MARRIED?
Yeah it’s the same guy. WAYNE MCKENZIE as his Facebook shows. He’s apparently happily married and has been for years. They have beautiful children and he’s a perv.
He’s so in love, but sending out penis pictures. What kinda love is that? And it’s going to be embarrassing for his family. His wife is Latino and you know how hard it is for them to accept ANYBODY for their child.
And they let this man in and look At how he treats their daughter.
Smh I hope his wife decides to do what’s best for her and the children. This guy CLEARLY isn’t ready to be a good husband to her.
And that’ll be it? What exactly does that mean? One day I’LL POST THE WRONG THING ABOUT THE WRONG PERSON.
Every story on my site comes from a reliable news source. These aren’t stories from THE ENQUIRER. You and your husband aren’t important enough for me to care about you. THE NEWS sent out a story and I gave an opinion on that story. That’s your REAL issue. And you’re a liar. I googled his name and there were still stories up with the ORIGINAL POST. I don’t owe you anything. I clicked on some of those stories and noticed that they had been removed. I clicked on others And noticed it had not. That’s their prerogative to remove. And mine NOT TO.
Another thing. Screenshots on Snapchat are possible IF the person was plotting something. The fact that there isn’t significant evidence may mean that the girl wasn’t in that mindset. Didn’t your husband give her rides home? Wasn’t there an officer who witnessed the call where he said KEEP THE KISS A SECRET? YOU’RE a great woman. Every man who is a pedophile, cheater, liar loves a woman like you. You’re amazing. You tolerate the bullshit, make excuses for your man, defend his actions, refuse to believe what’s right in front of you. You’re the perfect wife for a guy like that. You think your 5 children will protect you and solidify your family? You got with him when he was a boy. He’s got 5 kids. 28 with 5 children. That’s A HUGE LOAD. You need birth control. When you marry a man that young, you steal his youth and force him to grow up before he’s ready. That’s why he’s attracted to young girls. He’s trying to reclaim his youth. I feel sorry for you because you are in for a rude awakening. You think you know your husband but I assure you, you don’t. Watch your boys. They’ll tell you the truth.

It doesn’t matter if it’s snap. Pics can easily be saved or screenshot from Snapchat. So if happened they could have proof. Funny have they have absolutely no evidence. It was a jealous teen who was mad that she was demoted from being team captain to hardly no playing time. It was a jealous teen who liked him and he was married. Unfortunately it’s something that happens often. False allegations are not something to play with. Yes people make mistakes however he did not make that mistake. And there aren’t 10 websites up that kept the article. Only one left and they corrected the article. However like I said it’s ALL YOUR OPINION NO FACTS in your blog. And you have no idea what mistakes he was talking about or if it has anything to do with cheating. No all mistakes make mean someone is Cheating it lying. It’s not good to assume things. Nothing there is factual. NOTHING. But enjoy your life. One day you’ll post the wrong thing about the wrong person and that’ll be it.

My journalism. I’m not a journalist. I’m a blogger. I give an opinion. You might not like it but its mine. You just gave an opinion about me. So what? I’m not shaken by it. This story will stay. Leave teenage girls alone. Take care of your family.

I did actually go back and read the updated story that says Wayne was found not guilty on 2 charges. It’s Snapchat so photos are immediately erased. Also the fact that the girl made the statement and rescinded it makes me suspicious that somebody is lying. Also the fact that a deputy stated that he listened in on a conversation between Wayne and the young girl, where Wayne told the girl to KEEP THE KISS A SECRET. Was the deputy lying? Look I’m all for justice. If you’re innocent that’s great. But I don’t believe you are. And that’s why I will not be changing my opinion of you.
Let me help you out.
Leave teenage girls alone
If the young girl needs new shoes, direct her to the administrative office/ guidance counselor. If the family is struggling financially, Appoint them to social services
Don’t give teenage girls a ride in your car. You’re a married man, so act like it. Don’t give teenage girls money or gifts of any kind
Keep your lips to yourself. Even if you’re being friendly, it comes off as SEXUAL to a teenage girl.
You are not a counselor so don’t act like one. If teenage girls have emotional issues, Appoint them to the school counselor or someone who can find that child help.
If you were lied on then I apologize for what you’ve been through. Being falsely accused ain’t no joke. But if you manipulated the situation and you know you’re guilty but got off, KARMA will kick your ass.

Where tf did you get your information from? Did you hear the recording? There was no talk about a kiss. Did you get a copy of the statement where the child and her mother admitted to asking him to buy the phone and they were giving him money for it because mom was in a situation and needed help. The news report lies you should know that. And to put a picture of the family. The kids and wife have NOTHING to do with this. But you right God don’t like ugly and what you have done is very ugly.

If you say you state facts, then why haven’t you done your research to see all the allegations were false and that he was found not guilty on all charges! If you say you’ve been reporting things for years then you would follow through with your blogs. It’s crazy how people have their opinion but do not know the whole truth. The news and police will want you to see and know what they want you to believe. It’s a shame that you get off on reporting false facts and then have no professionalism to remove the inaccurate information. The real news reporters have already removed this story from their website. That’s what happens when things are reported but without know the whole truth. So out of respect to you and your followers, take the article down so they can see the truth in your work and not look at you like a fraud because you report false information.
Thank you.

Here is another caption from the story
The same day, the student called him with a deputy present. Ricks spoke to the student, not knowing a deputy was listening, according to the affidavit. Ricks instructed the girl to keep the kiss a secret.
Ricks is charged with battery and transmission of material harmful to minors. He was released from the Osceola County Jail in lieu of $1,500 bail.
So basically, HE tried to keep his behavior a secret. He resigned immediately. So if he were innocent, WHY DIDN’T HE FIGHT? There was a witness who listened in on the call. I’m certain they have it recorded. Cheating is NOT a mistake. It’s a choice. He had a wife and kids but he’s still chasing after somebody’s child. He has kids. What does that say about him? A real man doesn’t behave like this.
