Coralville, Iowa Man Sentenced to 140 Months for Receipt of Child Pornography and Unregistered Silencers
Edward Ian Whitehouse, also known as Kodi, 59, of Coralville, a city in Johnson County, Iowa, was sentenced on November 12, 2026, to 140 months in federal prison for two counts of possession of an unregistered firearm and one count of receipt of child pornography. United States Attorney David C. Waterman of the Southern District of Iowa announced the sentence.
According to public court documents and evidence presented at sentencing, Whitehouse received numerous images and videos containing child sexual abuse material, including content with minors as young as infancy. He also messaged self-purported minors and made plans for them to travel to Iowa to meet with him and engage in sex acts.
Whitehouse was found in possession of numerous weapons and ammunition, including four rifles, two shotguns, two handguns, 15 different firearm magazines, an AR-15 rifle with a silencer attached, and a separate rifle silencer. Neither silencer was registered to him under the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record.
After completing his prison term, Whitehouse will serve an eight-year term of supervised release. There is no parole in the federal system. He was also ordered to pay $12,000 in restitution.
The Coralville Police Department, the Joint Forensic Analysis Cyber Team, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives investigated the case, which was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, the Department of Justice nationwide initiative launched in May 2006.
