Springfield News-Leader: MSU approves settlement for Hendrix

Michael Hendrix, the Missouri State University assistant professor who was convicted of raping a child 25 years ago, will receive nearly $185,000 to leave the school.

The MSU Board of Trustees voted 7-0 at a hastily called special meeting Monday to pay Hendrix a total of $166,734 over a three-year period (based on an annual salary of $55,578) plus $7,000 they had promised to pay him to teach summer school this year and up to $10,000 for out-of-pocket medical expenses.
