This is... not exactly right.

To start, like w the rape case, Barrett didn& #39;t write this. Manion did (like, strangely, in the rape case).

Second, it doesn& #39;t say this. It& #39;s about handcuffs--bc it& #39;s a qualified immunity case, which are always ugly cases about minor details. https://twitter.com/TheRoot/status/1318921358181543937">https://twitter.com/TheRoot/s...

The q is whether putting on handcuffs too tightly, which apparently led to Day& #39;s death, was a clear violation of established law at the time.

The op then goes out of its way to say no. It& #39;s ugly. But it& #39;s ugly bc the LAW of QI is ugly. By QI standards, looks like a routine op.

Again, I& #39;m no defender of Barrett at all.

But this is a second time she& #39;s been criticized for an opinion she didn& #39;t write in ways that get the fundamental nature of the opinion wrong.

In both cases, it& #39;s the LAW, not Barrett, that& #39;s the problem.
