Former Substitute Teacher Charged With Trading Drugs & Vape Pens For Sex With Middle Schoolers

An ex-substitute teacher is facing multiple charges for supplying students with drugs in exchange for sex.

Enreeka Nalasco was originally employed as a substitute with the Miami Beach Senior High School. However, in 2018, he was fired after an investigation found that he’d had inappropriate contact with a student via Snapchat. Miami-Dade County Public Schools confirmed that Nalasco had not been employed with the district since his termination. The disciplinary action didn’t stop him from communicating with underage students online. Using the Snapchat name, “RealSwaggye,” the 32-year-old sold vape pens and drugs to underage students. In several cases, the man would want sexual favors in exchange for the items.

Two girls, aged 12 and 11, told police that Nalasco offered to give them narcotics in exchange for “kisses inside his vehicle.” A 14-year-old girl said Nalasco expressed an interest in her once she bought drugs from him. On Valentine’s Day 2020, he booked a hotel room for them, where he offered her narcotics and nicotine for sex. Another victim, also aged 12, says Nalasco sexually battered her after communicating with him on Snapchat. After meeting up to buy a vape pen from him, she was allegedly assaulted.

The current allegations against Nalasco were initially brought to the attention of authorities in March of this year. The female victims all attended Nautilus Middle School in Miami Beach.

Nalasco was taken into custody on Friday with charges including human trafficking, traveling to meet a minor, certain uses of computer services or devices prohibited, unlawful use of a communications device, and contributing to the delinquency of a child. He is being held at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center without bond.
