Wisconsin Court of Appeals
CRIMINAL UNPUBLISHED

Search and Seizure
Consent

Randall S. Werdin appeals from a judgment, entered upon a jury verdict, convicting him of forty-two[1] counts of possession of child pornography and from an order denying his motion for postconviction relief.

We agree with the State that the police search of Werdin’s computer was lawful because regardless of whether his estranged wife had authority to consent to the search, they reasonably believed that she did.

We also agree that Werdin’s trial counsel was not ineffective. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
