Palm Bay Private School Principal And Wife Arrested

In Palm Bay, the principal of a private school… El Sinai Christian Academy… Ryan Lugo, and his wife Nancy are facing serious allegations of theft, accused of misappropriating nearly $50,000 in school funds intended for students. Investigators allege the couple used the school’s accounts for personal expenses, including payments for their AT&T bill and hotel stays. Despite receiving state funds meant for free transportation and uniforms, they charged parents for the services. The case emerged after a parent complaint prompted an internal audit. Both are pleading not guilty to felony grand theft charges.
