BROCKTON, Mass. (AP) — A judge has revoked bail for a man who has been on home confinement while awaiting trial for driving his SUV into a Massachusetts Apple store, killing one and injuring 22 others. Officials say Tuesday that Bradley Rein, of Hingham, has been ordered to jail for 60 days after police went to his home several times over the weekend because his GPS monitoring bracelet was not working. His attorney said said the punishment was “disproportionate” with her client’s failure to keep the monitoring device fully charged. The Apple store crash happened in November 2022.
