Rodney Wren was a speechwriter for Mike Pompeo. He also was a Republican candidate for the Kansas House and for Wichita City Council. He was accused of having unlawful sexual relations over two years with a teenage student while he was a teacher at Wichita Collegiate School, a private school for students from preschool through twelfth grade.
He pleaded guilty and was sentenced to three years probation. That sentence is bizarre considering he pursued her when she was a sophomore, getting her number from school records and texting her.
News articles are striking for their erasure of his political connections.
