Wayne McKenzie Ricks II, 29, was arrested by Osceola County authorities on Tuesday and charged with 10 counts of sexual battery on a student between the ages of 12 and 18, Haines City police announced Wednesday. He was booked into the Osceola County Jail, according to online records. According to investigators with the Haines City Police Department, Ricks and the student had engaged in sexual activity several times since the school term began last year. Ricks and the victim would meet in his classroom when he was alone, and they would have intercourse in a closet, WTVT reported. The investigation was prompted after a family member of the victim became aware of the relationship and reported it, according to WFLA. Throughout the investigation, detectives were able to obtain video of what appeared to be Ricks and the victim kissing inside the classroom.
