Former NFL player’s family files lawsuit
SUMMARY: The family of former NFL player Glenn Foster, Jr. has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the Pickens County Sheriff’s Office, claiming that Foster was assaulted and denied medical treatment while in their custody. Foster was arrested after a speeding violation and later found unresponsive in the back of a police cruiser when it arrived at a medical facility two days later. An independent autopsy suggested that Foster did not die of natural causes. Civil Rights Attorney Ben Crump is leading the federal lawsuit on behalf of Foster’s wife. The case is currently pending in federal court in Birmingham.
