Henderson, 315 F.3d 854, 863 (8th Cir.2002) (for valid 42 U.S.C. § 1986 claim, plaintiff must have valid 42 U.S.C. § 1985 claim); Larson v. Miller, 76 F.3d 1446, 1454 (8th Cir.1996) (elements of § 1985(3) claim); FMC Corp. v. Helton, 360 Ark. 465, 202 S.W.3d 490, 502 (2005) (no Arkansas tort of negligent infliction of emotional distress); Crockett v.

      . The Honorable Robert T. Dawson, United States District Judge for the Western District of Arkansas.
