123972P.pdf   12/30/2013  United States  v.  Michael Goodale
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  12-3972
   U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Cedar Rapids   
[PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Bye and Smith, Circuit Judges] Criminal case - Criminal law and sentencing. Search fell within the "private search" exception to the Fourth Amendment; officers had probable cause to believe defendant's laptop contained evidence of child pornography offenses and could retain the laptop while awaiting issuance of a warrant; since the search of his laptop did not violate defendant's constitutional rights, his argument that his subsequent statements were fruit of the poisonous tree must be rejected; evidence was sufficient to prove defendant transported a minor over state lines to engage in sexual activity; district court did not err in imposing a five-level enhancement under Guidelines Sec. 4B1.5(b); sentence was substantively reasonable.
