*652¶ 1 Hollis Blockman was charged with and convicted of unlawful possession of a controlled substance *653with intent to deliver within 1,000 feet of a school bus stop. Blockman was discovered in Patricia Burton's apartment during a protective sweep by police, which Burton consented to, in response to a report of an assault and robbery committed in the apartment by Burton and two men.

¶ 2 Blockman contends the sweep exceeded the scope of the "protective sweep" exception to the warrant requirement under Maryland v. Buie, 494 U.S. 325, 110 S.Ct. 1093, 108 L.Ed. 2d 276 (1990), and therefore the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress evidence discovered in the course of the protective sweep. However, because Burton's unchallenged consent fits within the consent exception to the warrant requirement, State v. Mathe, 102 Wash.2d 537, 541, 688 P.2d 859 (1984), we affirm.

FACTS

¶ 3 Teresa Green contacted police officers, reporting that she was assaulted and robbed while in Burton's apartment. Green identified Burton and James Marlowe as the assailants and notified police that they, along with Blockman, were likely still in the apartment.

¶ 4 Uniformed officers went to Burton's apartment to obtain more information about the alleged robbery and assault. Upon hearing why the officers were at her door, Burton invited them into her apartment, saying, " 'I can't believe [Green] called the cops' " and " '[y]ou can search everything. I don't have her money.' "1 1 Verbatim Report of Proceedings (VRP) (Aug. 17, 2015) at 26, 28. According to the officer's testimony, the police told Burton, " 'You don't have to let us in.' " She responded, " 'No, come on in.' " Id. at 28.

¶ 5 After entering the apartment and briefly conversing with Burton, the officers asked if there was anyone else in *654the apartment. Burton responded that two other people were in the back bedroom. Burton did not specify whether the two people were Marlowe and Blockman, as Green had suggested earlier. *1197¶ 6 As the officers began the sweep, one officer proceeded in the hallway toward an open bedroom, and the officer witnessed a woman placing a $20 bill on a coffee table and Blockman holding a clear plastic bag containing a rock-like substance, which later tested positive for cocaine. As the officer announced he was with Tacoma Police, Blockman allegedly put his hands under the table rapidly. Blockman was seized and removed from the room.

¶ 7 Following his encounter with Blockman, the police officer further questioned Burton about the alleged robbery. The officer testified that he asked Burton, " 'Are you giving me consent to search?' " and told her she could limit the scope of the search and stop the search at any time. Id. at 29. Burton then signed a warrantless search consent form.

¶ 8 At trial, Blockman moved to suppress the evidence acquired during his interaction with the officers in Burton's apartment. His argument focused on the officer's failure to provide Ferrier2 warnings before entering the house. The trial court denied the motion, ruling that the officer "had concerns for his safety due to report of at least two unknown individuals ... somewhere in the residence" and "was invited by Ms. Burton to conduct a protective sweep." Clerk's Papers (CP) at 252.3 The trial court found the protective sweep reasonable to ensure no one would ambush the officers while they were questioning Burton.

¶ 9 On appeal, Blockman focused mainly on the warrantless protective sweep. The Court of Appeals affirmed, holding *655that "nothing in the rationale of Buie or its progeny suggests that an arrest is an indispensable prerequisite" for conducting a protective sweep. State v. Blockman, 198 Wash. App. 34, 39, 392 P.3d 1094 (2017). Blockman appealed, and we granted review. 188 Wash.2d 1014, 396 P.3d 341 (2017).

ANALYSIS

¶ 10 This court reviews legal conclusions resulting from an order pertaining to the suppression of evidence de novo. State v. Duncan, 146 Wash.2d 166, 171, 43 P.3d 513 (2002) ; see also State v. Carneh, 153 Wash.2d 274, 281, 103 P.3d 743 (2004).

1. Ferrier did not apply to the initial contact and consent given

¶ 11 First, Ferrier warnings were not required prior to the officers entering Burton's home. 136 Wash.2d 103, 960 P.2d 927. In Ferrier, officers went to a suspect's home with the intention of searching it after receiving information regarding a possible marijuana grow operation being conducted in the home. Since the officers thought they would not be able to obtain a search warrant without including the name of their informant, the suspect's son, the officers instead devised a plan where they would do a "knock and talk" in an effort to convince Ferrier to allow them into the home. Id. at 106-07, 960 P.2d 927. The officers appeared at Ferrier's house wearing uniforms, black " 'raid jacket[s],' " and vests emblazoned with the word "police." Id. at 107, 960 P.2d 927. In light of the "knock and talk's" sometimes unavoidable, inherently coercive nature, this court held that "article I, section 7 is violated whenever the authorities fail to inform home dwellers of their right to refuse consent to a warrantless search." Id. at 118, 960 P.2d 927.

¶ 12 Later, in State v. Khounvichai, this court clarified that Ferrier warnings are required only when law enforcement officers seek entry to conduct a consensual search for *656contraband or evidence of a crime. 149 Wash.2d 557, 566, 69 P.3d 862 (2003). These warnings are not required when the police are seeking entry into a home to question a resident in the course of investigating a crime. Id.

¶ 13 Here, the officers approached Burton's apartment as a result of Green's report *1198of a violent robbery and assault committed by three people who were likely still in the apartment. At the time of initial contact, the officers intended only to question Burton about the alleged crime. They did not approach the apartment seeking to enter or intending to conduct a search. After Burton opened the door and saw the officers, she invited them in. 1 VRP (Aug. 17, 2017) at 28 (after officers assured Burton, " 'You don't have to let us in,' " she responded, " 'No, come on in' "). Accordingly, officers were not required to give Burton Ferrier warnings before entering the apartment since they were intending only to question her, not search her apartment without a warrant.

2. Burton's unambiguous consent to officers searching her apartment makes it unnecessary to decide the applicability of Buie in nonarrest situations

¶ 14 Second, Blockman contends that the protective sweep exception to the warrant requirement set forth in Buie is valid only if it occurs incident to arrest. 494 U.S. at 334, 110 S.Ct. 1093. Relying on its rationale in Terry4 and Long ,5 the Buie Court held it is constitutional for law enforcement officers to either conduct a quick-look search of the spaces immediately *657adjoining the place of arrest without probable cause or reasonable suspicion or conduct a cursory sweep of a home incident to arrest where they have reasonable suspicion to believe the home is harboring a dangerous third person. Id.

¶ 15 We recognize that Division One's decision in this case created a split among the Court of Appeals concerning whether a Buie protective sweep warrant exception extends to nonarrest contexts. Compare State v. Blockman , 198 Wash. App. at 40, 392 P.3d 1094, with State v. Hopkins, 113 Wash. App. 954, 959-60, 55 P.3d 691 (2002). However, because the issue before us is resolved by Burton's unequivocal consent to the officer's search, it is unnecessary for us to decide the split.6

*1199*658¶ 16 We note, however, the officer's declaration to Burton that they "always do a protective sweep" and that it is "standard procedure" to do protective sweeps was erroneous. Despite differing interpretations regarding the scope of Buie , it is clear that protective sweeps are a limited exception to the warrant requirement. In order to conduct a valid protective sweep, officers who have reasonable suspicion to believe a home may harbor a dangerous third person may conduct a cursory sweep of a home. Buie , 494 U.S. at 334, 110 S.Ct. 1093. Or, if the officers do not have probable cause or reasonable suspicion, they are permitted to conduct a quick-look search of the spaces immediately adjoining the place of arrest. Id. Here, the officer's indication of protective sweeps being standard procedure was improper and potentially misleading.

¶ 17 While courts are still undecided as to whether the protective sweep warrant exception explicated in Buie extends beyond arrest situations, this case is not the proper vehicle to reconcile the split. As a result of Burton's unambiguous consent to officers searching her apartment, it is unnecessary for us to decide the applicability of Buie in nonarrest situations.

3. Consent was given to conduct a valid protective sweep

¶ 18 Lawful consent is one of the few recognized exceptions to the warrant requirement. Mathe, 102 Wash.2d at 541, 688 P.2d 859 ("Consent to search establishes the validity of that search if the person giving consent has the authority to so consent."). Our court has set out three requirements for a valid consensual search: (1) the consent must be voluntary, (2) the consent must be granted by a party having authority to consent, and (3) the search must be limited to the scope of the consent granted. State v. Hastings, 119 Wash.2d 229, 234, 830 P.2d 658 (1992). Thus, officers must strictly abide by the scope of the proffered consent. State v. Walker, 136 Wash.2d 678, 682, 965 P.2d 1079 (1998). Accordingly, an *659officer who receives consent to enter the entry way of a home cannot exceed the scope of the consent and begin searching the rest of the home without cause.

¶ 19 Here, the trial court entered undisputed findings of fact.7 Most notably, finding of fact 8 states, "Officer Hayward was invited by Ms. Burton to conduct a protective sweep. Officer Hayward conducted a protective sweep to make sure no one would jump out and surprise them while he was questioning Ms. Burton. [His] gun was still in its holster when he conducted the protective sweep." CP at 252.

¶ 20 Burton, as the tenant of the apartment, had authority to consent to a search or sweep. Blockman, however, was not described as Burton's tenant or as someone who would have a valid expectation of privacy in the apartment. Knowing the officers came to her apartment to ask questions about the robbery and assault, Burton invited them in, stating, " 'You can search everything.' " 1 VRP (Aug. 17, 2015) at 52. This presentation of facts, including Burton's consent to the officers' entry and protective sweep, was unchallenged.

¶ 21 There is no testimony or evidence suggesting Burton withdrew her invitation or intended to limit the scope of her consent. Had she withdrawn her consent at any point, the outcome may be different. As mentioned earlier, a search cannot exceed the proffered consent. See State v. Bustamante-Davila , 138 Wash.2d 964, 981, 983 P.2d 590 (1999) ("To be valid, the consent must be voluntary and the search must not have exceeded the scope of consent.");

*660Walker, 136 Wash.2d at 682, 965 P.2d 1079. Instead of revoking her consent, Burton continued to affirm it.8 Based on *1200these facts, Burton's consent fits within the consent exception to the warrant requirement.

CONCLUSION

¶ 22 Here, the officers were not required to provide Ferrier warnings upon their initial contact with Burton because they approached her apartment with the intent to question her about the alleged crime, not with the intention to search her home. Furthermore, although the issue of whether the protective sweep exception to the warrant requirement, set forth in Buie, extends to nonarrest encounters is still undecided, this is not the proper case to reconcile the confusion. Ultimately, Burton unambiguously consented to the sweep; a fact that was uncontested on appeal. Burton's unchallenged, unequivocal consent justified the protective sweep at issue. Therefore, we affirm the Court of Appeals.

¶ 23 According to the trial court's unchallenged findings of fact, Patricia Burton consented to the search of her apartment. Her consent provided the officers with the authority to conduct a warrantless search. I therefore agree with the majority's decision to affirm the trial court's order denying Hollis Blockman's motion to suppress evidence discovered during that search.

*661¶ 24 The majority also correctly observes that the parties did not present the issue of consent, but instead briefed the applicability of Buie1 protective sweeps incident to arrest to a nonarrest context. I agree with its description of the conflicting lines of authority on that issue. I write separately only to explain that the legal principles and privacy values identified by the majority compel a single resolution of that Buie issue: Buie protective sweeps are impermissible when police enter based on the consent exception to the search warrant requirement. The reason is that-as the majority recognizes-the key attribute of the consent exception to the warrant requirement is that the consentee defines the scope of that consent.

¶ 25 I therefore respectfully concur.

ANALYSIS

I. Burton consented to the search of her apartment

¶ 26 The police did not have a warrant to search Burton's apartment. This court has repeatedly held, " ' "As a general rule, warrantless searches and seizures are per se unreasonable." ' " State v. Ladson, 138 Wash.2d 343, 349, 979 P.2d 833 (1999) (quoting State v. Hendrickson, 129 Wash.2d 61, 70, 917 P.2d 563 (1996) (quoting State v. Houser, 95 Wash.2d 143, 149, 622 P.2d 1218 (1980) ) ). Thus, the first question in this case is whether one of the few, limited, and carefully defined exceptions to the warrant requirement permitted the search that led to Blockman's arrest.2

¶ 27 I agree with the majority that Burton consented to the search of her apartment. This court recognizes lawful *662consent as one of the few exceptions to the warrant requirement. State v. Mathe, 102 Wash.2d 537, 541, 688 P.2d 859 (1984) ("Consent to a search *1201establishes the validity of that search if the person giving consent has the authority to so consent."); see also Schneckloth v. Bustamonte, 412 U.S. 218, 222, 93 S.Ct. 2041, 36 L.Ed. 2d 854 (1973). As discussed by the majority, there are three requirements for a valid consensual search: (1) the consent must be voluntary, (2) the consent must be granted by a party having authority to consent, and (3) the search must be limited to the scope of the consent granted. Majority at 1199 (citing State v. Hastings, 119 Wash.2d 229, 234, 830 P.2d 658 (1992) ). While there was contradictory testimony presented at the CrR 3.6 hearing, neither party challenged the trial court's ultimate finding that Burton consented to both the entry into and the sweep of the apartment.3

¶ 28 Burton, however, had the right to limit her consent and define the scope of any consent search. See State v. Bustamante-Davila , 138 Wash.2d 964, 981, 983 P.2d 590 (1999) ("To be valid, the consent must be voluntary and the search must not have exceeded the scope of consent." (citing Hastings, 119 Wash.2d at 234, 830 P.2d 658 ) ). And she did, by repeatedly affirming her consent to the officers' presence in her apartment and to the sweep conducted.4 Therefore, I agree with the majority's conclusion that Burton consented to the search of her entire apartment and hence that the evidence obtained during that search was admissible.

*663II. Buie protective sweeps cannot be used in cases where the consent exception to the warrant requirement is used for entry

¶ 29 The majority continues that officers cannot conduct "protective sweeps" as "standard procedure," majority at 1199, any time they enter a home. I agree. This limitation on such sweeps and searches is critical where, as here, entry is based on consent. There are two reasons for this: first, Buie ' s exception to the warrant requirement did not extend that far (Section A, infra ); and second, the consent exception to the warrant requirement is based on the rule that the consentee gets to limit the scope of his or her consent (Section B).

A. The Buie Court's holding was limited to protective sweeps in the incident-to-arrest situation

¶ 30 Buie defines the United States Supreme Court's protective sweep doctrine in a very limited way as follows:

[A]s an incident to the arrest the officers could, as a precautionary matter and without probable cause or reasonable suspicion, look in closets and other spaces immediately adjoining the place of arrest from which an attack could be immediately launched. Beyond that, however, we hold that there must be articulable facts which, taken together with the rational inferences from those facts, would warrant a reasonably prudent officer in believing that the area to be swept harbors an individual posing a danger to those on the arrest scene. This is no more and no less than was required in Terry and Long, and as in those cases, we think this balance is the proper one.

494 U.S. at 334, 110 S.Ct. 1093 (emphasis added). Thus, this Buie exception provides for two types of searches-but both are "incident to ... arrest."

¶ 31 The first type is a quick "look"-with no probable cause or reasonable suspicion requirement-into spaces immediately adjoining the place of arrest that could conceal a person. That one is not at issue here.

*664¶ 32 The second type is a broader sweep for persons if the Terry and Long prerequisites are satisfied.5 Those Terry and Long *1202prerequisites require that a rational, fact-based inference can be made by a reasonably prudent officer that a dangerous individual is present. Buie, 494 U.S. at 325, 110 S.Ct. 1093 ; see also Long, 463 U.S. at 1050, 103 S.Ct. 3469 (" '[T]he issue is whether a reasonably prudent man in the circumstances would be warranted in the belief that his safety or that of others was in danger.' " (alteration in original) (quoting Terry, 392 U.S. at 27, 88 S.Ct. 1868 ) ). That is the one the State argued in this case.

¶ 33 But the Buie Court limited both types of searches incident to arrest-the "look" and the broader "sweep"-to the context of an in-home arrest because "[t]he risk of danger in the context of an arrest in the home is as great as, if not greater than, it is in an on-the-street or roadside investigatory encounter." 494 U.S. at 333, 110 S.Ct. 1093 (emphasis added). Despite this danger, the United States Supreme Court still kept the parameters of such a protective sweep narrow by holding that "[a] 'protective sweep' is a quick and limited search of premises, incident to an arrest and conducted to protect the safety of police officer or others." Id. at 327, 110 S.Ct. 1093. Thus, Buie's exception to the warrant requirement for searches "in the home" is limited to searches that are "incident to arrest" and that also satisfy Terry and Long.

¶ 34 Nevertheless, there is substantial debate throughout state and federal courts about Buie's implications for sweeps without arrests. The Ninth6 and Tenth Circuits7 *665have held that Buie protective sweeps must be incident to arrest. If we were to reject that line of decisions and instead hold that Buie protective sweeps can be incident to limited consent to enter, we would be giving Washingtonians less privacy protection in our state courts than they enjoy in our local federal courts. That can't be right: the Washington Constitution is more protective, not less protective, of our individual privacy rights than the federal constitution. State v. Hinton, 179 Wash.2d 862, 868, 319 P.3d 9 (2014) ("It is well established that article I, section 7 is qualitatively different from the Fourth Amendment and provides greater protections." (citing State v. Athan, 160 Wash.2d 354, 365, 158 P.3d 27 (2007) ); State v. O'Neill, 148 Wash.2d 564, 584, 62 P.3d 489 (2003) ; State v. Jackson, 150 Wash.2d 251, 259, 76 P.3d 217 (2003) ).

¶ 35 On the other hand, other circuits have stated that although the Buie decision arose from a sweep incident to arrest, nothing in Buie stated that a protective sweep would be *1203unconstitutional if officers were in the residence for some other lawful reason. United States v. Gould, 364 F.3d 578, 581 (5th Cir. 2004) (en banc), abrogated in part on other *666grounds by Kentucky v. King, 563 U.S. 452, 464, 131 S.Ct. 1849, 179 L.Ed. 2d 865 (2011).8

¶ 36 Division One's decision in this case, State v. Blockman, created a similar split within the Washington Courts of Appeals over the Buie "protective sweep" prerequisites. 198 Wash. App. 34, 40, 392 P.3d 1094, review granted, 188 Wash.2d 1014, 396 P.3d 341 (2017). Divisions Two and Three have limited the Buie protective sweep exception to the search-incident-to-arrest context.9 Pre- Blockman , Division One had explicitly stated that protective sweeps are limited *667to searches incident to arrest, stating that "[h]ere, the deputies did not arrest Dennis before the protective sweep. Thus, the threshold requirement of a protective sweep is not met under the circumstances of this case." ( State v. Dennis, No. 70262-9-I, slip op. at 9, 2014 WL 3843781 at *4 (Wash. Ct. App. Aug. 4, 2014) (unpublished), http://www.courts.wa.gov/opinions/pdf/702629.pdf).10

¶ 37 Division One's decision in Blockman, which extended Buie protective sweeps to the nonarrest situation, conflicts with all of those prior Court of Appeals cases. 198 Wash. App. 34, 392 P.3d 1094. In fact, Division One's Blockman opinion relied entirely on selected federal cases and did not cite (either approvingly or disapprovingly) to Division Two's or Three's or its own prior treatment of Buie protective sweeps.11

*1204¶ 38 The leading and controlling federal case on this issue, though, is Buie. And the "protective sweep" employed in this case goes far beyond the incident to arrest sweep approved in Buie. This is impermissible. We have repeatedly stated that " ' "[a]s a general rule, warrantless searches and seizures are per se unreasonable." ' " Ladson, 138 Wash.2d at 349, 979 P.2d 833 (quoting Hendrickson, 129 Wash.2d at 70, 917 P.2d 563 (quoting Houser, 95 Wash.2d at 149, 622 P.2d 1218 ) ). The few, limited, preexisting *668exceptions to the warrant requirement form a finite list: "[e]xceptions to the warrant requirement fall into several broad categories: consent, exigent circumstances, searches incident to a valid arrest, inventory searches, plain view, and Terry investigative stops." Id. at 349-50, 979 P.2d 833 (citing Hendrickson, 129 Wash.2d at 71, 917 P.2d 563 (citing Robert F. Utter, Survey of Washington Search and Seizure Law: 1988 Update, 11 U. PUGET SOUND L. REV. 411, 528-80 (1988) ) ); see also Charles W. Johnson & Debra L. Stephens, Survey of Washington Search and Seizure Law: 2013 Update, 36 SEATTLE U. L. REV. , at i, 1713 (2013). Expansions beyond Buie's protective sweep incident to arrest to the limited consent-to-enter context are not included in this list.

¶ 39 In fact, we have already implicitly rejected such an expansion of the Buie protective sweep exception. In State v . Eserjose , officers-acting on a tip that James Eserjose and Joseph Paragone were responsible for a robbery-went to the suspect's house at 1:30 a.m. without a warrant. 171 Wash.2d 907, 910, 259 P.3d 172 (2011) (lead opinion). When Eserjose answered the door, the officers asked if Paragone was home. Eserjose responded that Paragone was upstairs and that he would go get Paragone. Eserjose then went upstairs, leaving the door open. Eserjose's father invited the officers into the house, saying he wanted to close the door to keep out the cold air. The officers stood at the entryway for a minute, but eventually decided to go upstairs and arrest Paragone and Eserjose. Id. The trial court's conclusions of law stated that this was an unconstitutional arrest-that the officers had probable cause to arrest Paragone and Eserjose, but that going upstairs impermissibly exceeded the scope of consent-and the State did not challenge this conclusion on appeal.12 Id. at 911, 259 P.3d 172. This court accepted the trial court's conclusion of law and analyzed the admission of Eserjose's subsequent confession-agreeing with the trial *669court that "the arrest was unlawful."13 Id. at 912, 930 (Madsen, C.J., concurring) ("any illegality occurred when the deputies exceeded the scope of Eserjose's father's consent and went upstairs"), 935, 259 P.3d 172 (C. Johnson, J., dissenting) ("the constitutional violation here is not at issue"). If this court were to accept the state's argument that Buie "protective sweeps" could be expanded to include searches incident to a limited consent to enter, it would essentially overrule Eserjose .

B. The Buie Court did not disturb the rule that one, like Burton, who gives officers consent to enter or search retains the right to define the scope of that consent

¶ 40 Such an expansion would also conflict with the rule that the scope of a consent to enter or search must be strictly respected. Under controlling law of this court, Burton, like all home residents, had the right to define the scope of her consent to enter or search. We have explicitly held that "[a] search exceeding the scope of consent is invalid." Bustamante-Davila, 138 Wash.2d at 982, 983 P.2d 590 (citing State v. Murray, 84 Wash.2d 527, 527 P.2d 1303 (1974) ). And as discussed above, in Eserjose , we have applied this general rule to a factual setting analogous to the one presented here-we stated *1205that the arrest that occurred when the officers in that case entered pursuant to consent, but then exceeded the scope of consent by going upstairs to conduct a sweep for persons was unconstitutional. See supra pp. ---- - ----.

¶ 41 Allowing Buie protective sweeps after police obtain limited consent to enter would deprive the consentee-in this case, Burton-of her constitutional right to retain control of the scope of her consent.

*670¶ 42 Federal courts have similar concerns with such an expansion of Buie. The Second Circuit has stated, "[W]hen police have gained access to a suspect's home through his or her consent, there is a concern that generously construing Buie will enable and encourage officers to obtain that consent as a pretext for conducting a warrantless search of the home." United States v. Gandia, 424 F.3d 255, 262 (2d Cir. 2005). That Gandia court further explained,

"[P]rotective sweeps following a consent entry may in certain circumstance pose Fourth Amendment concerns not present in cases where the initial entry is pursuant to a warrant. For example, concerns might arise respecting a consent to entry requested for a stated common purpose but actually intended not for that purpose but rather for the purpose of gaining access in order to then make a protective sweep of the entire home for unrelated reasons and thus circumvent the warrant requirement."

Id. at 262-63 (alteration in original) (quoting Gould, 364 F.3d at 589 ). Our controlling decisions holding that the consentee gets to control the scope of consent given solves that problem.

C. Any potential danger to the officers could have been resolved without eroding Burton's right to define the scope of consent

¶ 43 Unlike in Buie, the Blockman officers did not face the same disadvantage of being on their "adversary's 'turf' " at an arrest scene. Buie, 494 U.S. at 333, 110 S.Ct. 1093. As the Second Circuit noted in a similar case, "Indeed, the entrance or hallway of the building, or their own police vehicle, would have fulfilled their stated purposes." Gandia, 424 F.3d at 263. Had the officers felt concerned for their safety in Burton's home, they could have interviewed Burton in a number of different locations, rather than use a Buie *671protective sweep. Or, as in this case, the officers could have asked for and received permission to search.14

CONCLUSION

¶ 44 I agree with the majority that the trial court correctly denied the motion to suppress because Burton consented to the officers' entry into and sweep of her home. I also agree with its decision to decline the State's invitation to hold that the Buie exception to the warrant requirement should be expanded to conflict with controlling case law holding that a consentee retains the ability to define the scope of his or her consent to enter or search.

¶ 45 I therefore concur.
