U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 15-3787
U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Ft. Dodge
[PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Colloton and Melloy, Circuit Judges]
Criminal Case - supervised release conditions. District court did not
plainly err in prohibiting defendant from owning or possessing
pornographic materials or entering place where materials can be obtained
or viewed based on defendant's pattern of inappropriate behavior towards
minors or plainly err in allowing probation office to search or monitor
computer and electronic devices. Restrictions were reasonably necessary
based on prior noncompliance. The court did not abuse its discretion in
prohibiting contact with minor children without written consent from the
probation officer based on history of prior sexual abuse and violations of
no-contact orders. The district court made individualized findings and
narrowly tailored the restriction to address his family situation.
