A former dorm supervisor at the Texas School for the Deaf pleaded guilty Monday to having an improper relationship with a student and was sentenced to six years in prison, said Travis County Assistant District Attorney Allison Wetzel.

Shane Flournoy, 33, told his minister last year that he had sexually abused a minor and wanted to turn himself in, launching a police investigation, according to a police affidavit.

Flournoy, who began working at the school in May 2007, had gone on shopping trips with a 15-year-old male student and allowed the teen to watch pornography on his computer, Flournoy and the student told police, according to the affidavit.

After his arrest, Flournoy was fired by the Texas School for Deaf.

Wetzel said that Flournoy will now be transported to Houston where he faces aggravated sexual assault charges. She said the conduct alleged in indictments in Houston against two victims happened before the relationship with the School for the Deaf student.
