Probable cause for a search for child prostitution on defendant\u2019s computer did not limit the ability of officers to look at pictures. United States v. Skow, 2012 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 142668 (N.D. Ga. September 13, 2012).*<\/p>\n

In plain view was paperwork and credit cards suggesting stolen credit cards. A search warrant would be reasonable based on these observations in an entry by consent. State v.
