BOWMAN, Circuit Judge.
The State of Iowa appeals the District Court’s grant of Jack Evans’s petition for habeas corpus relief under the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996, Pub.L. No. 104-132, 110 Stat. 1214 (AEDPA). We conclude that the District Court erred in holding that the Iowa Supreme Court made an unreasonable determination of the facts in rejecting Evans’s claim that the police violated his Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination. See 28 U.S.C. § 2254(d)(2) (Supp.IV 1998). We reverse and remand.
