1. “Longo’s recorded statement shows that he was aware of the images under investigation at that point and that he had not deleted them. In addition to the images themselves, there was evidence of Longo’s participation in several lascivious internet chat rooms. The texts of the chats under Longo’s user name, “Mounted 42,” revealed several references to the swapping of pictures involving juveniles.
