United States v. Kearney, No. 10-2434 (1st Cir. 2012)
Annotate this Case
Defendant entered a plea of guilty to 17 counts of transportation, distribution, and possession of child pornography, through use of the internet. The First Circuit rejected his appeal of denial of a motion to suppress. The search warrant was adequate despite the fact that the IP address defendant used to accomplish his crimes was a "dynamic" and not a "static" one. The court also affirmed an order of $3,800 restitution under 18 U.S.C. 2259 to a victim, who was a minor when her father created the pornographic videos circulated by defendant.
