   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  21-2419
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Central   
   [PUBLISHED] [Benton, Author, with Shepherd and Stras, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Civil rights. In the aftermath of a stabbing where police 
   were able to arrest the person responsible, they took three of the 
   victim's family members to the police station for questioning and refused 
   to allow them to go to the hospital where the victim was dying; plaintiffs 
   brought this action for unreasonable seizure and false arrest. Held: the 
   district court properly denied the defendants' motion for summary judgment 
   based on qualified immunity; the seizures were unsupported by probable 
   cause and were not reasonable; the constitutional right to be free from 
   seizure absent probable cause was clearly established, including in cases 
   involving this police department; defendants were not entitled to 
   "all-due-care immunity" under Iowa law on the state law claims; the 
   district court order granting plaintiffs partial summary judgment on their 
   common-law false arrest or false imprisonment claim is affirmed, as that 
   claim is necessarily decided by the resolution of the qualified immunity 
   claim. Judge Stras, concurring.
