United States First Circuit

A conviction for unlawful transportation of child pornography is affirmed, as the district court was correct to deny the defendant's motion to suppress the fruits of an allegedly illegal search of his home computer, where: 1) the affidavits submitted in support of the warrant established a fair probability that the defendant's computer and other digital devices held incriminating evidence; and 2) the government reasonably executed a broad search that fell within the scope authorized by the valid warrant it obtained.
