DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Iowa State assistant men's basketball coach Randall Brown resigned Monday after he was charged with possession of child pornography and obstruction of justice.


Brown, 45, remains free pending an initial court appearance March 11, said Al Overbaugh, spokesman for the U.S. attorney's office in Des Moines. At that time, a preliminary hearing date will be set and a judge will set bond.


According to an affidavit filed in support of the complaint, U.S. Postal Inspection Service investigators seized two computers from Brown's home and one from his office Jan. 24.


Visual images of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct were found on them, according to the criminal complaint.


The affidavit alleges that after Brown was contacted by investigators, he destroyed about 30 floppy disks that contained additional images.


In the affidavit, Inspector W. Kevin Marshall said he spoke to Brown on the afternoon of Jan. 24 and Brown agreed to cooperate with the investigation. After officers seized the computers from his home, Brown returned to basketball practice at Hilton Coliseum.


That evening, Brown told investigators he had destroyed the floppy disks at work, saying he was "concerned someone would find evidence on the disks," according to the affidavit.


Brown acknowledged he was warned not to destroy evidence, "but that he had a 'lapse of judgment' and did a 'stupid' thing," Marshall wrote.


A conviction on the possession charge carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and the obstruction of justice charge carries a maximum of up to 10 years in prison, the U.S. attorney's office said.


ISU basketball coach Larry Eustachy said Brown had resigned, effective immediately, and that the university had accepted his resignation.

I used to be a prof at Iowa State. My guess is that Eustachy's drinking bothered absolutely no one, but his kissing did.

And this moron that downloaded 30 disks of kiddy porn is just plain sad. I don't think even Pete Townsend had that much.
