We will never see the change we need if the police are allowed to continue acting with qualified immunity. Sigh.
The article doesn't describe the specific case/circumstances of what brought the case to SCOTUS.
"... from the conservative/libertarian Cato Institute and the Institute for Justice to the liberal American Civil Liberties Union and the NAACP, all of which have urged the court to revisit the qualified immunity doctrine."
Looks like Cato was at least largely responsible for the most recent call for review which included 13 different cases.
