terminated on Sept. 13, 2007, said Jill Jess, the University's associate director of public relations.
Branson said although the police discovered the images in 2007,charges were not filed until March 2009 because of the investigation.
Wallis could receive probation or up to 11 years in prison and he might be required to register as a sex offender. Sentencing is scheduled for Nov. 23. He remains out of jail at this time.
