   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  22-1182
   U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Cedar Rapids   
[PUBLISHED] [Gruender, Author, with Loken and Grasz, Circuit Judges] Criminal case - Criminal law and Sentencing. On this record, the magistrate judge conducting voir dire did not abuse his discretion in refusing to remove jurors defendant had challenged for cause; 18 U.S.C. Section 2251(a) contains no scienter element as to the victim's age, and a mistake as to age is not a defense to charges of producing child pornography; the evidence was sufficient to support defendant's convictions for producing and distributing child pornography; at sentencing, the district court could consider similar conduct even if defendant had been acquitted of the charges in state court; defendant's sentence, the statutory maximum on each count, to be served consecutively, for a total sentence of 1,680 months, was not substantively unreasonable.
