United States Eighth Circuit

Conviction and sentence for possession of child pornography is affirmed where: 1) district court did not err in finding that defendant's Fourth Amendment rights were not violated as he consented to the search of his computer; and 2) district court did not plainly err in imposing five years of supervised release despite erroneously stating at sentence that the maximum term was three years, as the error was harmless.
