In addition, her mother told her that she\u2019d found defendant viewing pornographic images of young girls on the family computer in their living room. The officers properly obtained a second search warrant to view the images stored on the cards. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mass.gov\/courts\/docs\/sjc\/reporter-of-decisions\/new-opinions\/13p0932.pdf\">Commonwealth v.
