Two more people joined a federal class-action lawsuit Monday against Foxborough police and its chief, contending that the department’s practice of putting Gillette Stadium eventgoers into protective custody when they are intoxicated violates state law.
The two bring the number of class representatives to four, in a process that could affect more than 1,000 people and take about two years to conclude, said Howard Friedman, one of the attorneys representing the plaintiffs.

Burgess was handcuffed to a bench for 6 hours? Who is training the Foxboro Police? Every police officer in the state knows you can't do that. Verdict for the plaintiffs. This one is a slam dunk.
Virtually everyone at Gillette Stadium gets there by car. These incapacitated fans probably leave the stadium by driving a car, no? I say keep drinks off the road.
