Sentence for receipt of child pornography is affirmed where the district court did not err in imposing a four-level enhancement for the possession of images containing sadistic or masochistic conduct, as the court made an objective determination that the image depicted sexual activity involving a minor and the depicted activity would have caused pain to the minor, and thus established an adequate basis for the application of the enhancement.
