    ____________
    Appeal from United States District Court

    ____________
    Before LOKEN, ARNOLD, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges.
    ____________
    PER CURIAM.
    After the district court1 denied his motion to suppress evidence, James Allen
    Crippen pleaded guilty to child-pornography offenses and was sentenced below the
    1
    The Honorable M. Douglas Harpool, United States District Judge for the
    Western District of Missouri.
    advisory Guidelines range. On appeal, Crippen’s counsel has moved to withdraw,
    and has filed a brief under Anders v. California, 
    386 U.S. 738
     (1967), challenging the
    denial of the suppression motion. Crippen’s unconditional guilty plea, however,
    forecloses our review of the suppression ruling. See United States v. Christenson,
    
    653 F.3d 697
    , 699 (8th Cir. 2011). Further, having independently reviewed the
    record under Penson v. Ohio, 
    488 U.S. 75
     (1988), we find no nonfrivolous issues for
    appeal.
    Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court, and we grant
    counsel’s motion to withdraw.
