Pedro Sanehez-Paz appeals his conviction of knowingly and intentionally manufacturing and possessing marijuana with the intent to distribute it. 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1) and (b)(1)(D); 18 U.S.C. § 2. Sanchez-Pedro entered a conditional plea of guilt and challenges the denial of his motion to suppress. We affirm.

We review a “district court’s denial of a motion to suppress evidence as a mixed question of law and fact, with rulings of law reviewed de novo and findings of fact *499 reviewed for clear error.” United States v. Lindsey, 482 F.3d 1285, 1290 (11th Cir. 2007). We view the evidence in the light most favorable to the government. Id.

Sanchez-Paz contends that detectives Alejandro Angulo and Theresa Edmiston of the Polk County Sheriffs Office violated the Fourth Amendment when they recruited Tim Farrans, an employee of Progress Energy, to inspect an electrical installation on property where Sanchez-Paz later was found. Sanchez-Paz maintains that Far-rans acted as a state agent during the inspection; that Polk County Sheriffs Office detective Theresa Edmiston’s affidavit in support of the search warrant did not contain sufficient information about a confidential source’s veracity or reliability; and that Edmiston deliberately and recklessly included inaccurate and misleading information in the affidavit. These arguments fail.

The district court did not err when it denied Sanehez-Paz’s motion to suppress. The record supports the finding by the district court that Farrans acted as a private individual when he entered the property. Although Edmiston and Angulo knew of and acquiesced in Farrans’s inspection of the installation, Farrans entered the property for the private and legitimate purpose of investigating whether electricity was being stolen. Farrans did not act as a state agent. The record also supports the finding that Edmiston’s affidavit did not contain any material misrepresentations and was more than sufficient to establish probable cause for the search of the property. The affidavit established that a confidential and reliable source provided information that someone at the property was cultivating marijuana and stealing electricity, and that information was independently corroborated by the detectives.

We affirm Sanchez-Paz’s conviction.

AFFIRMED.
