    Holding that the preponderance of the evidence standard applies to calculating the proper Guidelines range (citing McMillan v. Pennsylvania, 477 U.S. 79, 91-92, 106 S.Ct. 2411, 91 L.Ed.2d 67 (1986))

    The district court found that the cross reference applied and treated § 2G2.1 as the controlling Guideline provision. United States v. Long, 185 F.Supp.2d 30, 35 (D.D.C. 2001). Similarly, although § 2G2.4 applies to convictions for possession of visual depictions of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct, a virtually identical cross reference directs the district court to apply § 2G2.1 if the offense involved causing or transporting "a minor . . . for the purpose of producing a visual depiction" of sexually explicit conduct.

    Most of his victims were unusually vulnerable, special needs children of disadvantaged single parents. See generally United States v. Long, 185 F.Supp.2d 30, 39-43 (D.D.C. 2001). The egregious nature and indelible impact of Mr. Long's offenses are inescapable; in fact, one of his victims attempted suicide.
