A jury found Jesse Ryan Chattick, 35, guilty Friday of possessing child porn.
His sentencing hearing is scheduled for Oct. 24 in Cowlitz County Superior Court.
A police report filed after his December 2022 arrest says Chattick's former wife turned him in after finding images of minors engaging in sexual acts on his unlocked iPhone in the phone's recently deleted folder the month before.
His ex was one of the first people to take the stand Thursday and said she took a photo of the images on Chattick's phone and shared that photo with Kelso police.
The defense argued Chattick's phone didn't lock so anyone had access to it, but the 12-member jury disagreed.
