## Opinion text

EDMONDSON, Chief Judge,
Concurring in the Result in Part and Dissenting in Part:
I concur in the result except for Officer Long. In my judgment, Officer Long is also entitled to immunity. The preexisting law did not clearly establish what Officer Long did was a violation of federal law.
