Is there a possibility that they were in possession of the material because they were investigating child abuse?

Doesn’t seem like it

John Todaro, 49, of Amherst, was allegedly found to be in possession of child pornography following an Internet Crimes Against Children investigation. He was also disseminating child pornography, officials said.

Yes I read that, but it can mean anything. Disseminating can literally just be "this is the girl we need to save:". I'm not claiming they are innocent. But these are bikers with a cause. Governmental CSAM investigators also have and share these images.

Fair enough, I hadn’t thought of that angle
