203049P.pdf 08/13/2021 United States v. Ivan Espinoza
U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 20-3049
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Central
[PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author, with Smith, Chief Judge, and Erickson,
Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - Criminal law and sentencing. The information provided in
the search warrant affidavit was sufficient to support the probable cause
determination; in light of the collecting habits of those who use child
pornography there was a fair probability that defendant had not deleted
the images he had uploaded and that more images would be fine, and the
information provided in the warrant application was not stale; the
sentence imposed, a downward variance, was not substantively unreasonable
or an abuse of the district court's discretion.
