NATHANIEL R. JONES, Circuit Judge.

Defendant-Appellant, Danny Satterfield, a Deputy with the Sumner County Sheriffs Department (“S.C.S.D.”), appeals the district court’s order denying his motion to dismiss based on absolute or qualified immunity. Plaintiffs-Appellees, Robert Spurlock and Ronnie Marshall, alleged that Satterfield committed various acts that violated their constitutional and/or statutory rights. For the reasons stated herein, we find that Sat-terfield is not entitled to either absolute or qualified immunity for these alleged actions, and affirm the district court’s decision.
