092872P.pdf   05/26/2010  United States  v.  Michael Sampson, Jr.
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  09-2872
   U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa, Waterloo   
   [PUBLISHED] [Murphy, Author, with Wollman and Shepherd, Circuit Judges]
Criminal case - criminal law and sentencing. District court did not abuse its discretion by denying defendant's motion to withdraw his guilty plea to a felon-in-possession charge as defendant's plea was knowing and voluntary, and nothing in the record suggests he was coerced into making the plea; no error in imposing enhancements under Guidelines Sec. 2G2.1(b)(7) for the number of child pornography images involved in the case, as mailing the same video twice counts as two images; any error in counting an Illinois conviction for indecent solicitation of a child as a violent felony was harmless as the court expressed its desire to impose the same sentence regardless of whether the conviction was counted.
