1Opinion of the Court
BOUDIN, Chief Judge.
David Hilton was convicted in federal district court in Maine on one count of possessing child pornography. Hilton now appeals, challenging the constitutionality of the statute under which he was convicted, the Child Pornography Prevention Act of 1996 (“CPPA”), 18 U.S.C. § 2252A(a)(5)(B) (Supp. II 1996), and the sufficiency of the government’s evidence at trial. In an added twist, Hilton claims that he collected the pornographic material at the government’s behest. Finally, Hilton argues that the district court erred in its application of the sentencing guidelines.
