Wayne Nelson Corliss, who sometimes used the name Casey Wayne, was convicted to 19 years and seven months in prison for child sex tourism and child pornography. Wayne Nelson Corliss had begged for leniency from judge Joseph Greenaway, but to no avail- Greenaway denounced Wayne Nelson Corliss as an irredeemable predator who "acted beyond the bounds of human decency".  In online chats, Wayne Nelson Corliss had bragged about meeting some of his victims while he played Santa Claus during the holiday season.

Wayne Nelson Corliss was arrested last year for traveling abroad for sex with a child, and for making and possessing child pornography. Wayne Nelson Corliss could have faced up to 27 years in prison, but agreed to testify against fellow defendants, including John Wrenshall, a Canadian who was living in Thailand. Also arrested were Burgess Lee Burgess, Alexey Zapolsky and Mitchell Kent Jackson, who all pled guilty to sex tourism charges

"You have acted beyond the bounds of human decency," Greenaway said.

Corliss, who is soft-spoken, bearded and bespectacled, confessed last year to producing and possessing child pornography and traveling abroad for illicit sex, saying he was invited to Thailand by another pedophile he met online in 2000.
