People v. Cochran

After receiving information that someone had posted child pornography on three Internet newsgroup sites, the FBI traced the e-mail to defendant. In conducting the warrant-based search of defendants home, the police found a videotape defendant had made of his nine-year-old daughter and himself engaging in various sexual acts. The videotape is the source of the numerous still photographs defendant posted on the Internet. The videotape displays the childs vagina to the camera, showing her digitally penetrating herself, and inserting into her vagina a dildo and a vibrator. The videotape also shows defendant digitally penetrating the childs vagina with his finger, a dildo, a vibrator, his penis, and sodomizing her. The videotape was the primary evidence used against defendant.
