Ending Qualified Immunity w/ Ben Field

Qualified immunity is, according to Dean John Jeffries, "the most important doctrine in the law of constitutional torts," and has been particularly important in recent years because of conversations surrounding police brutality. But is it Constitutional, and is it good policy? To answer that, the Chapter heard from Ben Field. Field is an attorney at the Institute for Justice, where he has litigated extensively on a variety of civil liberty issues, including qualified immunity.
