United States v. Torres-Monje, No. 17-2163 (1st Cir. 2021)
Annotate this Case
The First Circuit affirmed Defendant's conviction for possession of child pornography, holding that the Government's evidence was sufficient to convict Defendant.
The district court denied Defendant's motions for judgment of acquittal, filed during the trial and then after the verdict, and then sentencing him to a prison term of time served followed by supervised release. On appeal, Defendant argued that the district court erred by denying his motions because the evidence was not sufficient to convict him. The First Circuit affirmed, holding that, even under the standard of review most favorable to Defendant, his sufficiency of the evidence challenge failed.
