DeChanta Knox was found guilty of three felony counts on Wednesday and she faces up to two years in prison on each, a possible fine and a restitution order. Sentencing was set for May.
Knox signed a plea deal to misdemeanor charges but then asked for a trial on Tuesday.
DSU officials say Knox resigned as special assistant to the president for athletics in February. She was hired in October, two months after she was charged. The charges are unrelated to Knox's position at DSU and the checks were written before she was named to temporarily oversee the athletic programs.
