The FBI determined it does not have enough evidence to pursue child pornography charges against Las Vegas Mayor John Lee, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

The case was turned over to the FBI after the city’s police department closed the case in October 2014 after possible child pornography was found on the mayor’s iPad.

According to police, Lee said the pornography was on his iPad after opening an e-mail, which police were never able to find.

Police also weren’t able to determine the ages of the people on the pornography.

Police had the iPad wiped free of the pornography but kept a copy and handed it to the FBI.
