Bryan man sentenced for Texas State University bomb threat

The Bryan man who was charged with making a bomb threat at Texas State University has been found guilty after a two-day trial.

Dereon Tayronne Kelley, 22, was accused of three counts of using the Internet to convey a false threat involving an explosive device.

Prosecutors said Kelley used his cell phone and his former girlfriend's Yahoo email account to send three emails threatening to bomb the admissions office at Texas State University.

Sentencing is set for May, and Kelley faces up to 10 years in federal prison and a possible $250,000 fine.
