Edward Wayne Rene, the former assistant dean of admissions at Texas Southern University Thurgood Marshall School of Law, has been sentenced to eight years in prison. This sentence comes after his guilty plea to two separate charges: theft from the university and an unrelated charge involving the sexual performance of a child. The sentencing took place on Wednesday in Harris County District Court. Rene, aged 57, will serve his sentence concurrently with the Texas Department of Corrections.
